More DescriptionIn Holes in the Tar Paper, the authors' poignant storytelling weaves together tales of youthful rebellion in segregated Palm Beach County with his notable careers in sports, law enforcement and community advocacy. His stories serve as thoughtful meditations on race, family, character, and courage. This candid, revealing memoir gives readers an intimate look into the disciplined mind of a five-time Hall-of-Fame inductee who as a child looked upon the heavens through a tattered roof and saw a life of limitless possibilities. Dan Calloway dares us to smile in the face of adversity, to use obstacles as stepping stones to success, and service as a bridge to understanding; to believe in the power of dreams and to never, ever stop reaching for the stars.
