Included are two Olympic Gold medalists (Wambach, Owens), three baseball superstars (Jeter, Clemente, Mays), a golfer, Nascar driver and a hockey player. The careers of the subjects are chronicled with emphasis placed on their career highlights and records. S&6;renstam is the only woman to shoot a 59 in an LPGA tournament, Clemente won 12 Gold Glove Awards, Earnhardt, Jr. had 26 career wins, and Gretzky holds the NHL record for most goals and assists. Photographs accompany the texts. All titles are informative and will be appreciated by the subjects' respective fans. Readers will need some background knowledge on the sports in order to fully appreciate the accomplishments of the athletes. Fans seeking in-depth information on their personal lives will be disappointed, otherwise these biographies do a fine job of presenting outstanding athletes past and present. VERDICT There are several biographies already available on these now retired athletes, however these are more current and selectors should consider where there is a demand.
