p>Since debuting as \;the \;host of Jeopardy! in 1984\, Alex Trebe
k has been something like a family member to millions of television viewer
s\, bringing entertainment and education into their homes five nights a we
ek. Last year\, he made \;the \;stunning announcement that he had
been diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. What followed was an inc
redible outpouring of love and kindness. Social media was flooded with mes
sages of support\, and \;the \;Jeopardy! studio received boxes of
cards and letters offering guidance\, encouragement\, and prayers. For ove
r three decades\, Trebek had resisted countless appeals to write a book ab
out his life. Yet he was moved so much by all \;the \;goodwill\, h
e felt compelled to finally share his story. "I want people to know a litt
le more about \;the \;person they have been cheering on for \;
the \;past year\," he writes in [this book]. \;The \;book comb
ines illuminating personal anecdotes with Trebek's thoughts on a range of
topics\, including marriage\, parenthood\, education\, success\, spiritual
ity\, and philanthropy. Trebek also addresses \;the \;questions he
gets asked most often by Jeopardy! fans\, such as what prompted him to sh
ave his signature mustache\, his insights on legendary players like Ken Je
nnings and James Holzhauer\, and his opinion of Will Ferrell's Saturday Ni
ght Live impersonation. \;The \;book uses a novel structure inspir
ed by Jeopardy!\, with each chapter title in \;the \;form of a que
stion\, and features dozens of never-before-seen photos that candidly capt
ure Trebek over \;the \;years. ~From the Catalog\nFind the
