At basketball-crazy Durfee High School in Fall River, Massachusetts, junior guard Chris Herren carried his family’s and the city’s dreams on his skinny frame. His grandfather, father, and older brother had created their own sports legends in a declining city; he was the last, best hope for a career beyond the shuttered mills and factories. Herren was heavily recruited by major universities, chosen as a McDonald’s All-American, featured in a Sports Illustrated cover story, and at just seventeen years old became the central figure in Fall River Dreams, an acclaimed book about the 1994 Durfee team’s quest for the state championship.

Great story of beating addiction and redemption.
Revisado: 05-30-20
Chris Herren is a hero for the generation of young people who watch rappers etc.. talk about lean and xanax. I hope they listen closely and realize how slippery the slope of addiction truly is. There is nothing cool or glamorous about dope sickness or the pain it causes your loved ones when drugs take over. Chris pulls no punches and really bares his soul. Great book and such a powerful message. God bless Chris and his loved ones. Keep up the great work. We are pulling for you big guy!
