In Against All Odds, NFL agent, Certified Public Accountant, husband, and father Anthony Razzano delivers an inspiring tale of resilience and perseverance in the face of almost unimaginable hardship. Caught in a catastrophic fire when he was only twelve years old, the author defied the odds—and the grim prognoses offered by his doctors—to become the starting outside linebacker for the New Castle Red Hurricanes under legendary coach Lindy Lauro.
You’ll read about how the young Razzano endured months of grueling rehabilitation, 43 surgeries, 134 blood transfusions, and years of physical therapy only to emerge even stronger on the other side. The book offers:
The transformational narrative of the author’s almost unbelievable story of tragedy and endurance
A beacon of hope to the millions of children, parents, and athletes moving through their own journeys
Fuel for your own faith and spirit as you encounter and withstand life’s ordinary and extraordinary challenges
A singular and awe-inspiring exploration of one boy’s successful attempt to persevere through nearly unbearable burdens, Against All Odds is an inspirational and transformative story you won’t be able to put down.
ANTHONY RAZZANO is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), licensed NFL agent, husband, and father. At age twelve, he suffered third-degree burns over more than 87% of his body. He defied the odds and survived to his discharge date, becoming an integral and beloved member of his community with a passion for youth sports.
