The Fastest Man Alive by Usain Bolt

The Fastest Man Alive by Usain Bolt

Before he shattered the 100-meter and 200-meter sprint records, becoming the fastest man in the world and a household name, Usain Bolt was just a skinny kid from the Jamaican parish of Trelawny. With humble beginnings, Bolt's life changed in August 2008 when the Olympic men's 100-meter starter pistol was followed just 9.69 seconds later by his streak across the finish line and the first of his three gold medals.

In a handsomely illustrated celebration of his influences, background, and career, he shares his story of growing up playing cricket and soccer, and discovering that he could run fast--very fast.

In The Fastest Man Alive, Bolt shares stories of his family, his friends, and the laid-back Jamaican culture and reveals what makes him tick, where he finds his motivation, and where he gets his inspiration. He tells of the dedication and sacrifice required to get to the top and also discusses fast food, partying, dancehall music, fast cars, and that signature lightning bolt pose.
