The Rocket That Fell to Earth - by Jeff Pearlman (Paperback)

Roger Clemens's life story is a tale of triumph and tragedy, as told by New York Times bestselling author Jeff Pearlman in his explosive new book.

From his Ohio childhood to the mounds of Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium, Pearlman reconstructs Clemens's life with unflinching honesty and remarkable detail.

Readers will learn about the pitcher's flaws and troubles, including a long-term affair with a teenage country singer, violent explosions, steroid and human growth hormone use, and a dark secret that Clemens spent a lifetime trying to hide: a family tragedy involving drugs and death.

With a foreword by former baseball player and Hall of Famer David Wells, this book is the definitive biography of Roger Clemens, one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history.
