Out of curiosity, what motivated you to contact some FIRST teams and write a book about their experience and your experience following them for 2 years?
Thanks for the enthusiasm. I originally came to the story of FIRST through my nephew, who was absolutely blown away by his experience on a FRC team in New Jersey. The program sounded interesting, so I came up to Manchester for the 2009 kickoff, more thinking this would make an interesting newspaper/magazine article than a book. One morning at kickoff, and I knew this was story, to tell it right, needed a book. And I was off.
