Jasper Honaker of Midlothian and daughter Samantha talk with Herschel Walker Tuesday night at Borders in Dallas as the former Dallas Cowboys running back signed a copy of his book, "Breaking Free."

The Heisman Trophy winner will also sign books at 2 p.m. Saturday at Sam's Club, Market Place Boulevard in Irving, and at 6:30 p.m. May 6 at the TCU Bookstore in Fort Worth.
