Описание:

When the Detroit Red Wings were rebooting their franchise after more than two decades of relative futility, they knew the best place to find world-class players who could help turn things around more quickly were conscripted servants behind the Iron Curtain.

All they had to do then was make history by drafting them, then figure out how to get them out. Thats when the Wings turned to Keith Gave, the newsman whose clandestine mission to Helsinki, Finland, was the first phase of a of a years-long series of secret meetings from posh hotel rooms to remote forests around Europe to orchestrate their unlawful departures from the Soviet Union.

One defection created an international incident and made global headlines. Another player faked cancer, thanks to the Wings extravagant bribes to Russian doctors, including a big American car. Another player who wasnt quite ready to leave yet felt like he was being kidnapped by an unscrupulous agent. Two others were outcast when they stood up publicly against the Soviet regime, winning their freedom to play in the NHL only after years of struggle.

They are the Russian Five: Sergei Fedorov, Viacheslav Fetisov, Vladimir Konstantinov, Vyacheslav Kozlov and Igor Larionov. Their individual stories read like pulse-pounding spy novels. The story that unfolded after they were brought together in Detroit by the masterful coach Scotty Bowman is unforgettable.

This story includes details never before revealed, and by the man who was there every step of the way - from the day Detroit drafted its first two Soviets in 1989 until they raised the Stanley Cup in 1997, then took it to Moscow for a victory lap around Red Square and the Kremlin.

The Russian Five did more to bridge Russian and American relations than decades of diplomacy and d tente between the White House and the Kremlin. This is their story.

Описание: Have you ever felt overwhelmed by what life has thrown at you? Whether you've suffered personal loss, a major life change, career challenges, toxic relationships or even a health crisis, you've found yourself wondering if the storms would ever stop coming and if you'd ever be able to feel truly happy again.

Jenn Baxter wondered the very same thing. During the course of just five years, she endured a series of back-to-back traumas that would change her world forever. The stress of an abusive relationship, both her parents' deaths, a toxic work environment and years of emotional turmoil finally caught up to her in 2014, when she found herself with advanced adrenal fatigue and barely able to function.

But rather than spiraling downward into a pit of despair, Jenn rose from the ashes with more peace and joy than she'd ever had before.

How did she do it?

By getting back to what really matters.

Following God's lead, she "stripped down and cleaned up" her life. She let go of her connection to material possessions and downsized to a 160-sq-ft tiny house on wheels. She took control of her health by cleaning up her diet and switching to non-toxic products. And she finally confronted all the emotional baggage that she'd been unknowingly holding onto for years. Then, with a clean house, a clean body and a clean spirit, she set out to make her dreams happen NOW, not later.

Read her raw and inspiring story, then be ready to do the same. Live a F.A.S.T. Life: How Stripping Down & Cleaning Up Gave Me My Life Back gives readers the inspiration and practical tips they need to start living lives that are more Fabulous, Abundant, Simple and maybe even ... Tiny.

Praise for Live a F.A.S.T. Life:

"Jenn Baxter understands firsthand how debilitating life's problems can be. But through a set of life choices about everything from location and diet, to consumerism and faith, she has found a peace that truly passes understanding. Fortunately for us, she decided to share her story and I, for one, felt so encouraged after reading it. I'm sure you will too."
-Andrew M. Odom, Author, Speaker & Influencer

"Jenn's story proves, once again, that it is not only possible to find strength and clarity from our pain, but the results can be positively inspirational. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick read that will motivate you to run F.A.S.T. in the direction of your dreams "
-Michelle "MJ" Boyle, Simple Life Advocate and Tiny House Podcast Host

"Jenn Baxter reminds us that imperfections, mistakes and heartache are a treasure trove of life lessons. Her story is a call-to-action to focus on what matters most in life: your well-being and what brings you joy. This book left me feeling motivated -- even fired up -- to dig deeper into issues holding me back from living a healthier, more robust life. There's no time like now to embrace a higher quality of life and bucket-list living -- an empowered yet grounded approach to living like every day is your last."
-Alexis Stephens, Tiny House Expedition

"Jenn's mission is energizing, and her ability to gain strength from each trial is simply incredible. This is a story overflowing with a never-give-up, you-can-do-it message."
-Heather Meadows, Writer & Speaker

"I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book, and it was worth the anticipation Written in a conversational style, it is full of tips and advice from a woman who has not simply survived, but also thrived. Jenn opens her closet and her heart to you You will come away inspired ..."
-Kari Cooper (a.k.a. "Yurt Grrl"), Yurt & Tiny Living Expert

"The story of Jenn's downsizing journey is equal parts spiritual awakening and practical how-to guide. A great read if you're trying to cut the clutter and spark profound, lasting change in your life."
-Amy Henion, Writer & Simple Livi
