The Roger Federer Story: Quest for Perfection ReviewWhat a waste of a tree. This book is little more than a narrative of Roger Federer's travel movements and his match scores. Most of it could have been written using the ATP fixtures and match results. The rest could have been gathered from internet news searches.
Despite describing himself as "one of the world's leading tennis journalists", René Stauffer offers little personal insight into Roger Federer, man or tennis player. Nor has there been any substantial research into the views of people who know him well enough to provide such insight.
Federer has stable personal life and he is not a party animal, so there is no expectation by the reader of great revelations in this area. But there are some things the reader of a tennis biography would like to know, such as:
* Why did Federer use a single-handed backhand when most players of his generation use a double-handed back-hand?
* How did he develop that balletic and devastating forehand?
* Did he naturally have great footwork or did he (or someone else) decide to develop it?
* Who taught him to serve that way?
* How has he changed or developed his groundstrokes over the years?
* When does he try to hit a winner?
* What tactics does he use against different opponents?
And so on.
And what was he trying to do in those big matches? What makes Federer tick? This is the essence of biography.
Obviously Federer himself will not reveal his thinking and tactics, but one would expect one of the "world's leading tennis journalists" to provide some analysis - or to get it from others.The Roger Federer Story: Quest for Perfection OverviewRegarded by many as the greatest tennis player in the history of the sport, this authoritative biography is based on many exclusive interviews with Federer and his family as well as the author's experience covering the international tennis circuit for many years. Completely comprehensive, it provides an informed account of the Swiss tennis star from his early days as a temperamental player on the junior circuit, through his early professional career, to his winning major tennis tournaments, including the U.S. Open and Wimbledon. Readers will appreciate the anecdotes about his early years, revel in the insider's view of the professional tennis circuit, and be inspired by this champion's rise to the top of his game.
