Inspirational and open, his story reveals not just the pressures of competition, but also the camaraderie and wild experiences that come with a life in rugby.

  The Heart of a Champion -...

  What sets a champion apart from the rest? It’s not just talent, strength, or skill—it’s the mindset. The greatest athletes in history have all shared one thing: an unshakable belief in themselves, an ability to push through challenges, and an unwavering commitment to their goals. A champion’s mindset is built on discipline, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. 
  Mental toughness is the foundation of this mindset. Champions understand that adversity is inevitable, but they refuse to let setbacks define them. Michael Jordan was famously cut from his high school basketball team, yet he used that failure as fuel to become one of the greatest players of all time. Serena Williams has faced countless obstacles, including injuries and criticism, but her ability to stay mentally strong has allowed her to dominate the sport for decades. 
  Self-doubt is another challenge that even the best athletes face. However, champions learn to quiet those negative voices and replace them with self-belief. They train their minds just as much as their bodies, using visualization techniques, affirmations, and mental conditioning to stay focused. Muhammad Ali, for example, declared himself “the greatest” long before he ever won a title. His words were not just confidence—they were a mindset that propelled him to success.

  A Basketball Season for the Ages
  In the spirit of Hoosiers, Friday Night Lights, and The Boys in the Boat comes the classic underdog story of a high school basketball team's quest for glory and a young man's journey of growth, family, and determination. Set against the vibrant backdrop of mid-1970s Long Island, New York, this heartwarming memoir captures the excitement, challenges, and camaraderie of a small-town varsity basketball team and its dreams of triumph.
  
  Thirteen-year-old Tom McKeown, growing up in a close-knit Irish American family, struggles to balance school, friends, and the newly discovered world of teenage society. It’s an era when race and class divisions were very real, but bridged by athletics and community purpose. From his vantage in the eighth grade, Tom and the Village of Babylon follow their varsity basketball team, the Panthers, as they fight their way forward in hopes of claiming the first ever Long Island Championship.
  
  Led by visionary coach Roy Koelbel and star player Glenn Vickers, the Panthers confront adversity on and off the court. Each obstacle overcome brings them closer to that elusive title. At the heart of their journey is a knockdown trilogy of games with a familiar and formidable Amityville team, who have dreams of their own.
  
  With a keen eye for strategy, detail, execution, and a deep love for the game of basketball, McKeown chronicles a season of finding purpose in unexpected places, the power of teamwork, and the thrill of cheering for a team that embodies the heart and spirit of a community. Even when faced with potential heartbreak, you’ll find yourself shouting, “This is Panther Country!”

  As a young boy, Buddy Levy accompanied his father into the pre-dawn twilight to hunt birds—particularly the chukar partridge. That youthful experience marked the beginning of Levy's reverence for the chukar and his indefatigable passion for hunting it. Here, Levy presents a lyrical and honest look at the world of hunting this "gorgeous, complicated, strong-flying" bird. He explores the complex (and controversial) layers of hunting through powerful descriptions of the hunt itself, the natural history of the bird, the grueling physicality of upland pursuit, the companionship of a worthy bird dog, and thoughtful reflections on the enduring allure of sport hunting.
