Overview

Cheered as a superman when he won the Olympic gold in the decathlon and the pentathlon, Jim Thorpe was stripped of those honors, and disgraced, when authorities discovered he had once played semi-professional baseball. Exploring both the trials and the triumphs of America's first great all-around athlete, this portrait of the man and the Native American community from which he came is 'involving and thought-provoking.'--BL.
