Hope Solo is the best women's goalkeeper, an Olympic gold medalist, and a member of the U.S. national team. Her life's journey began in Richland, Washington, where she was raised by her strong-willed mother on nuclear testing sites and her father was a con-man who was sent to prison, then became homeless and lived in the woods. The story of Hope Solo is heartfelt throughout as her courage and strength is revealed by her haunting memories of childhood, yet she pursued her dream as she became stronger-and-stronger. Hope Solo is one modern female athlete who tells it like it is in a fearless manner, protecting the goal of the U.S. Soccer team with exceptional talent that led her to the Olympics and the World Cup, an international celebrity who fulfilled her dream, despite a difficult journey to get her there. Heartwarming, Touching, Inspiring, and Highly Recommended!
