A unique memoir about the sport of tennis. This is the story of veteran player Tom Brown's journey from boyhood in San Francisco; to becoming a Wimbledon winner twice, fresh from serving in the army in World War II; through marriage, parenthood,divorce, legal career, and travel with tennis all along the way. In his late eighties he was called the Bionic Man for despite a shoulder replacement, new knee, repaired tendons, he was a prominent senior player for decades. His memory for the people, events, mixed with a droll sense of humor bring to life a bygone era.
