COMING SOON – The Life Story of Tom Thuresson, as told to Michael Thuresson
A Good Day for the Race
Anyone who knows Tom Thuresson knows his uncanny knack for remembering the details of seemingly every person he’s ever met and every place he’s ever been. Now the stories he’s been telling friends and family for decades are all in one place. A Good Day for the Race is not only the story of Tom’s life, but the stories of the many people and places that have touched his life. Read about:
His adventures as a teenager aboard a cruise ship bound for Argentina
An evening his father once spent with Al Capone
His relationship to the surgeon who attended to JFK after he was assassinated
A riotous cross-country trip with his son Pete in a roofless and doorless jeep
His founding of the Glenview Junior Titans football program
Written together with his son, author Michael Thuresson, in the inimitable style of a humorous Tom story told at a dinner party, this book captures the stories of the ultimate community supporter, a traveling X-ray salesman, a long-time computer sufferer and a loving father and husband.
