From Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Cory Parella comes this story of how the southwest was won. Two extraordinary men, Lute Olson and Joe Parella, who barely knew each other, changed Tucson and the world forever by law enforcement and basketball. A modern day western about a coach, a cop and Christ. A real life Dances With Wolves and Wyatt Earp, Joe's work with the Pascua-Yaqui Indians, exterminating drug dealers from their reservation, enabling them to obtain a license to operate casinos resulting in a fulfillment of the last standing orders of the Lincoln Administration. Lute Olson's impact on the athletic world raised expectations in a city long divided by racism. He was the embodiment of hard work, winning clean in a system that was anything but. If you loved 42, Invictus and The Untouchables, you will fall in love with The Faithful. Historical fiction based on real interviews with eye witness accoiunts.
