Known as the larger-than-life superstar of movies such as The Terminator and True Lies, Arnold Schwarzenegger was born in a small village in Austria. The son of a strict disciplinarian who put heavy demands on his son, Arnold always knew that he wanted more than an ordinary life in his small hometown. He wanted to be rich and famous, and he wanted to be the best, and he would stop at nothing to get what he wanted.
After finding his purpose and drive in the punishing sport of competitive body building, Schwarzenegger pursued his every goal with unyielding determination, whether the challenge was achieving the title of Mr. Universe, or becoming one of the world's most popular movie stars.
When he was elected governor of California in 2003 in a special recall election, Arnold Schwarzenegger, a political novice, faced a skeptical press, tough legislators, and the scrutiny of the nation. But Schwarzenegger took on this new challenge as he's taken on all others, and he stands to become an iconic political and cultural figure in American history.

Arnold Schwarzenegger
Have you ever felt like you didn't belong? That's how Jackie Robinson felt when he went into the MLB league. Barry Denenberg wrote a book called Stealing Home. The genre of the book is nonfiction sports. This book would fit into those genres because it's a biography about his life and it's also about baseball.
The Story of Jackie Robinson is a about the hardships he went through as an African American living in the U.S. Throughout the book he explains and talks about his life accomplishments like going to UCLA and being the first four letter athlete. He also talks about serving in WW2, also about the hardest times in his life as well like not being allowed to sit with the white members and eat on the football team, or the way he was treated by fans, other players, his own teammates, and coaches coming into the MLB. But no matter the amount of doubt or hate he received from everybody he continued to do what he believed and what he wanted. He broke so many barriers in the racial way with the world and so many records as he played throughout his career. Jackie Robinson was one of the best to ever play in the league. He was an amazing player and an amazing person.
If I were to rate this book out of 5 stars I would rate it a 4.5. I would rate it that because of how moving Jackie's life was. I would also rate it that because of how inspiring he is as a person and how strong he was to go through all of the things he did and never give up, and always strived to break more barriers as well as break more records in the MLB. Jackie Robinson, in my opinion, is one of the greatest baseball players of all time.
