Summary

"A great example of what we can accomplish when we refuse to quit." (Dan Gable-Olympic gold medalist)

Dan spent most of his childhood trying to hide in plain sight. A raw, abusive upbringing tarnished his entire family. Dan and his older brother Chris were born under the brutal fists of their father, impacting them emotionally and physically. Somehow, Dan found his way out through sports, and with one success after another. Chris wasn’t so lucky. Most say Chris never had a chance. When Chris died, Dan knew this story needed to be told. For anyone going through a hard time, this is the book that will give hope to continue on. And for those already living a good life, this book will inspire them to live a great life.
