Product Description
Millions of people around the world know Chuck Norris as the star of more than 20 motion pictures, including "Delta Force," "Missing in Action," and "Return of the Dragon." Millions more know him as a martial arts expert, the only man in the Western Hemisphere to hold an 8th degree Black Belt Grand Master in Tae Kwon Do. And then there are others who know him from his eight seasons on CBS s longest running series, "Walker, Texas Ranger." What many don't know is that Chuck Norris is a sincere Christian a man whose faith plays a role in everything he does. Against All Odds is an inspirational story of how Norris overcame abject poverty from childhood, the effects of his father s alcoholism and desertion of the family, and his own shyness and lack of strength and ability early in his life. Norris writes candidly about how he was able to overcome such obstacles in his life giving full credit to God.

 Inspiring November 18, 2008
C. Klinger (Denver)
Mr. Norris is inspiring as the first time you climb a 14,000 foot peak in the Colorado Rockies and view the magnificent landscape below; truly awesome.
Against All Odds glimpses into the life of Chuck Norris and shows you a man of deep faith in Jesus Christ, a man who is a disciplined fighter, and a humble celebrity. I believe anyone who reads this book will find themselves inspired to live bigger, and more humbly.
I am humbled to acknowledge him in my first novel, Dean Ransom, Restored.
 Chuck Norris, a hard working American hero August 23, 2008

Against All Odds is a short read but very enjoyable. I can relate to some of the experiences in his life. His love for family and his belief in God was touching and left me with a feeling of personally knowing him. His is down to earth, a caring man of virtue. If you have enjoyed his movies, TV series or followed his martial arts career then this is a must read book.

A must read. Very inspirational. Shows that in this life you should never give up. You must always believe and have faith. Eventually you will succeed. I would recommend this to all those who are serious about life, serious about achievement, serious about helping others.

I admire Chuck Norris very much. I think he sets a fine example for young and old alike. Personally, I would have liked to have read more about the personal side of his life and just a little less of his martial arts story. The segment of "Walker, Texas Ranger" was way too, too short. Still, I'd like to read more of his material. Now, Chuck, in my opinion, is a real man!
