Field of Hope: An Inspiring Autobiography of a Lifetime of Overcoming Odds

Rating:
Summary: A great inspiration
Review: "Hope" is an inspiring story of a man who was told in his early life he wouldn't make it in baseball. Mr. Butler proved that hard work and determination does indeed payoff. He is refreshingly honest about his shortcomings and his belief in Jesus Christ. His wife, Eveline, narrates a good portion of the book giving her views on their life together, with the trials and tribulations that goes with any marriage. Another title for this book could have been, "Winners never Quit". They are both just that, winners, only they're winning in the game of life.

Summary: proves with God, anything is possible
Review: An inspiring, touching story. I followed Brett's career ever since I first saw him play in Atlanta in 1982. His story is a glowing example of the power of our living God. Hopefully this book will bless you the way it has blessed me. I've read it four times now, and still enjoy it every time. Oh, I have the honor of saying a letter I wrote the day he was diagnosed is on page 218 of this book. God bless you, Brett.

Summary: Excellent book
Review: I enjoyed reading Brett Butler's autobiography and have read it quite a few times. It's a wonderful read about love for God and overcoming odds and tragedies. (I love the chapter of his first encounters with his future wife Eveline. It made me laugh out loud.)
