This is a wonderful book. I was so captivated that I read the whole thing in one sitting, other than a children’s book, I have never done this before. I have bought further copies for my friends. Sam is so inspirational in showing just what can be achieved with commitment and positive attitude.

I truly enjoyed reading this book!

We met Sam some years back when he visited Lagos for a series of tennis coaching clinics, he was fantastic with the children. When I found out he had published this book, I was eager to get a copy. The book chronicles his incredible life story; and is a tale of survival against all odds. From his first encounter with tennis 🎾 to his ITF debut; the heartbreaking war tales; the trials and uncertainties; the book is captivating! A lot of life’s lessons to learn and we are reminded of so many things we take for granted. The book reminds us that perseverance, hard work and good behavior are magnets for success. I would highly recommend this book!!!
