An honest look into the man CHUCK NORRIS

Although it has been a while since I read this, it was a great read I could relate easily to the way his story unfolds. Inspiring.

CHUCK NORRIS APPROVED

My son requested this book (bonus enough he ASKED for a BOOK!) :) for Christmas, & he was ecstatic to get it! He's really enjoyed reading it & says to please tell you it is an honor to read about a real life American hero in his own words, & is (he told me to capitalize this) CHUCK NORRIS APPROVED! WE LOVE CHUCK!!!

A good read

I bought this book for my wife for Christmas. She is a fan of Chuck. She finished the book in a matter of days and gave it to me to read. I'm glad I did. Learned tons of things I never knew about him. I would recommend this book even if you are not a big fan because it tells a good rags to riches story.

Very Inspiring

I gave this book to my adult son when he achieved his black belt in karate. He found it very inspiring and hard to put down! He has suggested that I read it which I will.

A good book for young boys/men

Alhtough Karate is not especially interesting to me, and I don't agree with all of Chuck Norris' views on politics, I found the book interesting and inspiring. His persistence and dedication to helping others and following God are moving. I think the episodes about the Karate competitions would hold more interest for Karate students and young men, but I was impressed with Chuck Norris' determination to learn from his failures to push on to doing better. There are important messages here that could help many young people.

A Surprise Hit !!!

Chuck Norris has been inside my head for 30 years. My wife and I met "Carlos" today at the book store and my wife received an autographed copy of this book. As a kid, I never thought I would have ever shaken his hand, but I did at 41. Any way's, his book is a good read and you won't be disappointed. Has some nice pictures in it as well.
