In his new book, Zeke O'Connor shares how he parlayed a university education into a pro-football career, and went on to become a successful business executive at Sears Canada, a world-class adventurer and an important humanitarian.  Zeke takes readers on his many journeys, first as a successful athlete (Zeke scored the 1952 Grey Cup game-clinching touchdown for the Toronto Argonauts, the last Argo team to win the Grey Cup at home in Toronto), then as Sir Edmund Hillary's friend and companion on many a Mount Everest adventure and as the inspired leader of a series of Himalayan development projects spanning three decades.  In celebration of the 100^th Grey Cup, Zeke is hosting book-signing events for fans at select Sears stores in the Greater Toronto Area.
