A biography. From the front inside dust jacket: "MY ACES, MY FAULTS is the dramatic story of Nick Bollettieri's remarkable life, from law school to lawn tennis, from teaching pro for the Rockefeller family to director of the most successful tennis academy in the world. It is also a relentlessly candid story. Nick knows that he is compulsive, obsessive, brash, egocentric and vain. He works as hard on his tan as he works on his pupils' forehands; he is as proud of his gleaming teeth and his sparkling sunglasses as he is of his championship banners. He knows, too, that his tireless pursuit of success has contributed to the break-up of each of his five marriages."
