Eric Liddell: Pure Gold: A New Biography of the Olympic Champion Who Inspired Chariots of Fire

Rating:
Summary: Moving and Informative
Review: I had always admired Eric Liddell from what I knew of his story from the movie "Chariots of Fire." This thoroughly researched and well-written account of his entire life (only a couple of chapters focus on the time surrounding the '24 Olympics) moved me to tears several times. He lived an honest and committed life--one that is inspirational for those of us coming after him. I highly recommend this book.
