Against All Odds

My Story

De: Chuck Norris, Ken Abraham

Narrado por: Michael Norris

Millions of people around the world know Chuck Norris as the star of more than 20 motion pictures, including Delta Force, Missing in Action, and Return of the Dragon. Millions more know him as a martial arts expert, the only man in the Western Hemisphere to hold an 8th degree Black Belt Grand Master in Tae Kwon Do. And then there are others who know him from his eight seasons on CBS's longest running series, Walker, Texas Ranger. What many don't know is that Chuck Norris is a sincere Christian, a man whose faith plays a role in everything he does.

Against All Odds is an inspirational story of how Norris overcame abject poverty from childhood, the effects of his father's alcoholism and desertion of the family, and his own shyness and lack of strength and ability early in his life. Norris writes candidly about how he was able to overcome such obstacles in his life, giving full credit to God.

"Compelling....This memoir will please those who admire Norris's achievements and conservative activism." (Publishers Weekly)

I love everything about this book.

I love Chuck Norris, and I love reading his story through life. it gives me strength and makes me think about my own life decisions

Chuck Norris- Against All Odds

I thought Chuck Norris was amazing before this book but this just made me admire him more.

Inspiring.

Would you listen to Against All Odds again? Why?

I would listen to this book again, because Chuck norris is plays my favorite character on a television series, and I think that his story is great. It explains a lot when you consider most of the episodes of Walker, Texas ranger are touching, and family oriented just like norris's life is like today.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Against All Odds?

I would have to say when Norris comes out of his shell when he learns the martial arts. He states, and I agree that it makes you feel good about yourself when you know you can stay away from vices just by doing something positive.

Which character – as performed by Michael Norris – was your favorite?

Mike does a great job just telling his father's story.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There were parts of the book that made me a little emotional, but the part I found funny most of all was the part where Bob Barker beats Adam Sandler, andChuck laughs and smiles at how well he taught Barker.

Inspiring book

As a Christian and a Taekwondo student I needed this book. God has used Chuck as an inspiration in my life. Thank you Chuck.

This was an ok book. I was looking for more of the time when he was in Walker Texas rangers. But it covered more martial arts than anything. if your looking for more about the Martial arts fighting you will love it.
