Review:
Decades before the term "extreme sports" was born, Jim McKay was introducing the world to sports like cliff diving, big wave surfing, and barefoot water-skiing. For nearly 55 years, the ubiquitous McKay was the host of ABC's Wide World of Sports. As the Saturday afternoon master of ceremonies, McKay was always adept at pointing out the wealth of human achievement as well as the "agonies of defeat." His autobiography details many of the more memorable moments in a lifetime of sports.
