BREAKING BACK: How I Lost Everything and Won Back My Life tells the story of an unbelievably tumultuous year in the life of James Blake, and answers the question that everybody, including Oprah Winfrey, has been asking: how did he do it? Currently ranked in the top ten, James Blake has emerged from a bed of immeasurable odds; a broken neck, the loss of his father to cancer, and a debiliating bout with shingles; to become one of the most recognizable players in the game.

In the spirit of Lance Armstrong?s It's Not About the Bike, BREAKING BACK is a testament to the unbreakable bond between a son and his father, and evidence of a young person?s ability to push beyond the barriers of physical incapability and incapacitating grief in pursuit of a dream.
