Описание: Like other teams, the Cleveland Indians suffered as World War II drained rosters and distracted fans. But in 1945, star pitcher Bob Feller returned from naval service and was soon joined by the American League`s first Black players: Larry Doby and Satchel Paige. This book shows how, in 1948, they led the Indians to a World Series championship.
Описание: Having grown up in an impoverished environment, Demario Davis found himself leading a life filled with drugs, alcohol, violence, and eventually, jail. With the odds against him at every turn, he continued to pursue his dream of making a name for himself in the NFL. But when given a divine warning that he was dangerously close to hitting his final strike, he began searching for something greater. Journey with him as he shares his story of finding what it means to become a true champion in the midst of what the world may deem defeat.
"If you've ever had the chance to meet Demario, you will truly understand the common phrase 'force of nature.' This title is normally reserved for athletes who are so powerful and agile that it's overwhelming; you can't stop it. Demario is like that on the field, but his joy, character, and passion for life might be his most powerful attributes. This book reminds us all that there's something greater we live for. This might not always show up on a scoreboard or in a bank account, but our wins and losses do not have to define us. God's call on our lives is the most important. Demario's life is evidence of this exact thing. This book will be a blessing to anybody who is trying to make a difference in this world. I highly recommend it." Carl Lentz, lead pastor of Hillsong East Coast
"Demario's story is one that will inspire, encourage, and challenge anyone who reads it. This book is a powerful story from an incredible man, whose faith in God will impact generations to come." Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints quarterback
"It speaks volumes when people who have money, power, and influence take time out of their busy lives to focus on the things that matter most. I'm looking forward to seeing what Demario creates off the field through his new book and the insights he's found through his journey." Andy Mineo, rapper

Описание: For a variety of reasons, the 1908 American League pennant race has received much less attention from baseball historians than what happened in the National League that year. Yet the AL`s race, involving the league`s four westernmost teams, was equally dramatic. This book offers a study of the race for the title.

Описание: Competitive swimming is one of only five sports to have been contested at every Olympic Games since the first competition of the modern era was held in 1896. While only a handful of swimming events took place that year, the sport has grown considerably since then-at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, there were 16 swimming events on the schedule for both men and women. The growth of competitive swimming has given athletes the opportunity to push the limits in the pool, and for more than a century countless swimmers have done just that, proving their worth to be considered one of the best. They Ruled the Pool looks at the careers of the 100 greatest swimmers in history, profiling some of the biggest names the sport has seen, from Mark Spitz and Tracy Caulkins to Janet Evans and Michael Phelps. Each swimmer is ranked based on achievements such as Olympic medals, world and European championships, and world records. Chapters include biographical information, accomplishments, records, finest performances, and insight into how the swimmer became one of the best in the sport. Thoroughly researched and compiled, They Ruled the Pool also contains appendixes that serve as quick reference tools for those wanting to see world and Olympic medal counts of the profiled swimmers. Fans, coaches, athletes, and researchers alike will find this an indispensable resource.
