Sinopse

"Bowling Titans" masterfully chronicles the evolution of bowling from a casual pastime to a sophisticated professional sport, focusing on the technical precision and strategic depth that defines elite competition. Through comprehensive analysis of legendary players like Don Carter and Marion Ladewig, the book reveals how scientific understanding, athletic dedication, and technical innovation transformed the sport into a complex competitive pursuit.

 
The narrative unfolds across three distinct sections, beginning with the mechanical fundamentals of elite bowling, including the physics of lane conditions and pin action. The story then progresses through profiles of revolutionary achievements, such as Earl Anthony's earnings milestone and Pete Weber's powerful playing style, before exploring the modern era where technology and biomechanics have further refined the sport.

 
Drawing from extensive interviews and historical records from the American Bowling Congress archives, the book offers unprecedented insights into competitive bowling's development. What sets this work apart is its unique blend of practical instruction and historical context, making complex technical concepts accessible through player anecdotes and real-world examples. Whether examining lane reading techniques or analyzing the impact of modern equipment on scoring, the book maintains a balanced approach that serves both as a historical document and a practical guide for players and coaches seeking to understand the science behind bowling excellence.

    The story of surfing in Scotland is defined by people who dared to dream in spite of the cold, from Neva MacDonald-Haig and the coffin-lid surfers of Machrihanish, who first took to the waves off the west coast in the 1930s with a little help from a local undertaker, to Andy Bennetts and the pioneers of the 1960s, who discovered many of the nation's best breaks, to contemporary big wave surfer Ben Larg, a native of the tiny island of Tiree who now travels the world riding skyscraper-sized walls of water for a living.
    Scotland is also home to a rich and distinctive surfing culture, with its own surfboard shapers, surf instructors, surf filmmakers, surf photographers and surf fashion brands, not to mention surf-inspired artists and musicians. Professional contests held at some of Scotland's best waves have drawn visits from surfing world champions including Tom Curren, Sunny Garcia and John John Florence, and in recent years Scotland's own surfers have begun to make their presence felt on the competitive stage, with the Scottish surf team featuring at the World Surfing Games and at Eurosurf after finally gaining official recognition in 2014.
    The View From the Shoulder draws together 20 years of surf journalism from the pages of The Scotsman newspaper, together with fresh context, to create a portrait of a wave-riding community like no other.

    Discover the answer to life's most pressing problems through the joy of fly-fishing from master philosopher John Gierach. 
     
     
     
    Once again, John Gierach tells the world why the pastime of fly-fishing makes so much sense—except when it doesn't. In sparkling prose, with more than a touch of humor, he recalls the joys of landing that trout he's been watching for the last hour—and then losing an even fatter one a little later. Joy and frustration mix in Gierach's latest appreciation of the fly-fishing life as he takes us from his home waters on the Front Range of the Rockies in Colorado to fishing meccas all over North America. From fishing lodges in Alaska to memories of the local creek in the Midwest where he grew up, Gierach reminds us about the indispensability of the natural world around us.
