Book Summary

The #1 New York Times Bestseller

"Lewis has such a gift for storytelling�he writes as lucidly for sports fans as for those who read him for other reasons." �Janet Maslin, New York Times

When we first meet him, Michael Oher is one of thirteen children by a mother addicted to crack; he does not know his real name, his father, his birthday, or how to read or write. He takes up football, and school, after a rich, white, Evangelical family plucks him from the streets. Then two great forces alter Oher: the family�s love and the evolution of professional football itself into a game where the quarterback must be protected at any cost. Our protagonist becomes the priceless package of size, speed, and agility necessary to guard the quarterback�s greatest vulnerability, his blind side.
