Description

Chester: No Limits is the amazing story of Chester Farrow, the innovative Bay Area high school teacher who for decades ran the scoreboard for the Oakland As baseball team. For twenty-five years, electronics teacher Farrow produced the cable TV show "Just for You," written, hosted, and helmed by his students at Monte Vista high school in Danville California. To finance their in-school production facility, "Rainbow Studio," Farrow and his kids produced an impressive series of rock concerts, including Journey, Huey Lewis, and Greg Kihn. For over fifty years, Farrow was the scoreboard operator for Oakland As, working with the team as they won several World Series in the 1970s and 80s and interacting with some of the most legendary players and executives in baseball history. A series of entertaining first-person vignettes take the reader into Farrow's inimitable world-teaching kids to believe in their potential by day and immersing in pro baseball at night. Bolstered by emotional testimonials from his students and newspaper articles that account his many accomplishments as an educator, Chester: No Limits chronicles the remarkable life of Chester Farrow, an unsung hero with a "can-do" attitude who inspired countless lives.
