Product Description
When ordinary people do extraordinary things, history is written. When extraordinary people do awe-inspiring things and remain a recluse, a biography is written. When it comes to Pramesh Modi, there is only one thing left to do: write an Illustrative Story of Tennis “Godfather”, as he is lovingly called by thousands.
This book is a singular story of a man who re-shaped the meaning of the tennis score-call “Love All” into a whole new philosophy of life, “Love for All”. In the hands of a historian and a brilliant young artist, the book takes a unique approach in composing visual biography that is also a tennis manual. In its entirety, the book is a testimony of a selfless individual who gave his life to make tennis, the most royal game, a means of subsistence for the most underprivileged. Additionally, the book represents its mentor in spreading knowledge of the game and philosophies of life, as led and preached by this wonderful man. A reader is not only told an extraordinary life-story, but is also given Pramesh Modi's philosophies.
The book preaches the idea that “sports is the only religion that harnesses the true energies of a good life".
