Most people know Brian "Wookie" Fleming as a professional snowboarder, a longtime Vail Valley local, the creator of the notorious underground snowboard event Log Masters, and a legend in the snow sports industry. But there is much more to his story -- including his upbringing in San Diego and Japan, his career-ending injury that threatened leg amputation, his time driving a taxi for over a decade, and becoming a father. Researched and written by Wookie's wife, journalist and radio personality Laura Lieff, this comeback biography illuminates how the life-altering circumstances of one professional athlete were met with heart and humor. Filled with four decades of photography, anecdotes and inspiration, "Wookie" is an uplifting lesson in life.
