Henderson recalls tennis greatness in ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE: A MEMOIR ON JIMMY CONNORS, ARTHUR ASHE, TENNIS AND LIFE

San Francisco, Calif.; Dec. 8, 2010 – Jimmy Connors is among tennis royalty, establishing himself as one of the dominant players both on and off the court during the seventies and eighties. And Douglas Henderson Jr. was there almost the entire way as Connors’ friend and confidante. In his memoir, ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE: A MEMOIR ON JIMMY CONNORS, ARTHUR ASHE, TENNIS AND LIFE, Henderson offers a rare, behind-the-scenes glimpse of the tennis world from 1974–1997. This memoir is available exclusively at UntreedReads.com.

Henderson rallies engaging stories about Connors and several other greats, including Arthur Ashe, Bjorn Borg, Vitus Gerulaitas, Andre Agassi, and more. He recalls what really happened at some of the greatest matches, the locker room banter he engaged in, and his own personal experience both on and off the court. ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE also contains candid and rare photographs from the author’s personal collection, making it a must-read for any tennis or sports enthusiast.
