Chasing a Dream is the memoir of Newfoundland basketball phenom Carl
English. It’s an inspirational true story of persevering through hard work and
dedication to make a dream become reality. In Carl’s case, he always dreamed of
playing in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Although he went
undrafted through all his years playing, he enjoyed the career of a lifetime
playing the sport he loves. The basketball pro from small-town Newfoundland
travelled overseas and crushed the European basketball circuit. He became a
superstar in his own right, by playing in Europe and for the Canadian national
team, and returned to his home province to a hero’s welcome.
