Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Halberstam has written the definitive biography of the basketball legend who stars in the hit Netflix series The Last Dance.
Michael Jordan is responsible for some of the most unforgettable moments in basketball history and one of the key factors in making the NBA what it is today. When people think of Jordan, they remember spectacular shots, the dance of his body with the ball, his harmony with the court, his incredible flight to the basket. Before multimillion-dollar contracts and lucrative endorsements, few people sat in front of their televisions watching NBA games, which were rarely broadcast. And then Jordan arrived. From that moment on, everything changed, and a new era began, capitalized on the talent of the 23, his unparalleled will, and his unparalleled competitiveness. Behind his greatness, hid a born leader.
