Assouline's ‘Rafa Nadal’ is the first comprehensive visual biography of the champion, created with his full participation. Drawn from three decades of images, many never before published, from the private collections of Nadal, his family and his inner circle, it moves between the red clay of Roland-Garros and the streets of Manacor, the locker room and the Rafa Nadal Academy, global campaigns and unguarded days at sea. Written by Jon Wertheim, 60 Minutes correspondent and senior writer at Sports Illustrated, it resists the urge to mythologise its subject, revealing instead "the warrior next door." Reflections from Roger Federer, King Felipe VI of Spain, Mery Perelló and Toni Nadal take readers inside the private world behind twenty-two Grand Slam titles and fourteen Roland-Garros championships. For those who admired not only the victories but the sacrifice behind them.
