From a Letterman to a Better Man depicts the story of the rise and fall of the infamous Dallas Carter High School football team; but from the personal vantage point of Patrick "PK" Williams. Williams, a defensive player for the Carter Cowboys at the time, chronicles his journey from "pedestal to prison" where he served 3 years, 4 months and 19 days, which is one of the chapters of the book. His story is one of redemption, humility and his quest to be a better man.
