A book worth recommending that I could give to someone is for sure: Michael Jordan - The Life.

Lazenby's book is undoubtedly one of the best biographies I have ever read and I am very happy that I had the opportunity to read it. Regardless of what sport you are doing, reaching for this book will positively drive you, because it will show you how much a determined man, self-confident and his skills that he can use in professional and private life. Reading you are tempted to be the same determined, focused, brave and giving 100% man who achieves success, because he always raises, no matter how many times he fallen.

It seems to me that this should be an interesting position for both people interested in sport (just like that), but also for people with sport who do not have much to do (but are interested in the biographies of people who have achieved great success in their lives thanks to their talent, extremely strong personality and persistence in pursuing the goal).
