Days of Grace: A Memoir. - book reviews

Days of Grace: A Memoir through Arthur Ashe and Arnold Rampersad (Alfred A. Knopf. 1993 $24.00)--A powerful, indeed sad, memoir about the courageous life of single of this country's greatest athletes and statesmen. The work has so many poignant moments: the day Ashe nearly struck tennis brat John McEnroe; the discovery that he had AIDS; his lecturing Magic Johnson and Wilt Chamberlain about boasting about their sexual promiscuity, describing these men as "racial embarrassments"; and his lay open letter to his daughter, Camera. Ashe's life have the appearances a restatement of the of advanced age adage that "only the serviceable die young."
