Outstanding

I really liked this book about Paterno. It was a very honest account of the REAL Joe Paterno from the one person who really knows him the best.At first,I thought this might be about a little brother using his big brother's name to make some money by writing a book, but this was not the case at all. George Paterno really does look up to his famous brother, and he is just telling it like it is in the book. I liked this publication, any football fan would as well. If you want to hear the whole truth about Joe Paterno, then this is the book for you!!!

A insiders view of a great college coach

JoePa's little brother gives you the inside story of one ,if not the best, college football coaches in America. Tells of there early years in NY, the family ties, and who or what influenced them both.It's a good book that gives you a look into the human side of Joe and the way it affected his family and in paticular his little brother George.
