In 1985, after watching the NCAA Finals with a friend who happened to write for Sports Illustrated, David Barrett sent him a song he wrote. Without David knowing it, his friend took the song to CBS. And the rest, as they say, is history.

The song “One Shining Moment” now crowns the NCAA Basketball Finals, dampening every eye in the arena. A new version, sung by Luther Vandross, pushes the song's power to a new height. This truly American anthem, celebrating its 20th anniversary as the closing moment of the NCAA men's basketball tournament, is now an inspirational book that will move anyone toward their best – be it championship basketball game or a job interview.

The Notebook, which will include a CD single of this iconic anthem is the perfect gift book for anyone needing encouragement that in order to succeed you need to put it all on the line. This book should receive placement during the four week NCAA basketball tournament and then have another strong selling season during the graduation gift holiday.
