It is written in an oral history style rather than the usual autobiography book. Put together by New York Times Best-Selling author and sports journalist Don Yaeger, the book’s contents are from Payton’s interviews accompanied by stories from Payton’s family and dear friends since Payton passed away even before the book was finished. The book showed its readers what kind of person Payton is aside from the football superstar that he was. In this autobiography book, Payton’s early life and his career with the Chicago Bears was discussed. The book also talked about his philanthropy, the affection he felt for his fans, his love for his family, the work that he did, and how he bravely battled the rare liver disease which caused his death at a young age. Payton’s autobiography is a must-read for any football fan as well as for anyone who wants to have an inspirational read.

Known as Sweetness around the NFL, Walter Payton was an American football player who professionally played only for the Chicago Bears. Payton was born on July 25, 1954. He has two children with wife Connie Norwood. This Pro Football Hall of Famer was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and was one of the greatest running backs in American football. Payton was not only a great member of the NFL but more importantly an even greater member of the society. He funded and organized Christmas toy drives so that every child in the State of Illinois Department of Children and Family Services system would receive presents during Christmas mornings and he did this anonymously. He also played a big part in the awareness of the need for organ donations. Payton suffered from primary sclerosing cholangitis, a rare liver disease, for several months which later on claimed his life.
