But Seriously by John Mcenroe
The wildly entertaining Sunday Times bestseller 'This book deserves to be seeded No. 1' Daily Mail Fifteen years after his massive bestseller Serious, John McEnroe is back and ready to talk. Who are the game's winners and losers? What's it like playing guitar onstage with the Rolling Stones, hitting balls with today's greats, breaking bread with his former on-court nemeses, getting scammed by an international art dealer, and raising a big family while balancing McEnroe-sized expectations? But Seriously is a richly personal account, blending anecdote and reflection with razor sharp and brutally honest opinions. This is the sports book of the year: brilliantly funny, surprisingly touching, and 100% McEnroe.
The follow up volume to 2002's best-selling Serious, and every bit as entertainingMcEnroe is just as brash and as opinionated as you might expect, but he has a saving grace: behind all the bluster, he seems to be a genuinely nice bloke -- Marcus Berkmann * DAILY MAIL *

He has proved an excellent commentator during big tournaments, as he'll remind us this fortnight at Wimbledon -- Simon Kuper * THE SPECTATOR *
McEnroe has established himself as perhaps the most distinctive voice in tennis punditry -- Andrew Anthony * OBSERVER *
The one-time enfant terrible of the Centre Court has not mellowed with age if his recent pronoucements on Serena Williams are any measurement * RTE GUIDE *
Who can forget the shouty bad boy, infamous for his temper! Now a respected elder statesman of tennis, his fascinating memoir reveals all * BEST *
