  The journey through life came to a T-junction.
  This is your invitation to pry into the diary, be the other tourist on the train, a voyeur at the accident, an eavesdropper on the argument. 
  
  Two one-track minds merge with train-wreck results.
   
  The girl Graham Field left in England is not the one who
  arrives in India. Sofia sees the trip as her swansong before motherhood,
  impatient to exchange backpack for a baby sling.
   
  So begins the journey which is the: 
   
  Indian Itinerary of Endurance
  
    A cold snap makes for a chilly reception in Delhi
    First-class aggravation in Agra, tension at the Taj Mahal
    Backtrack to the ghost city of Fatehpur Sikri, a brief respite from outstretched hands
    Non-stop to balmy Bombay and a runny bum
    Tunnel vision, reaching down a Goan sewer for the irretrievable
    Cross-country to Pondicherry, pondering decoupling
    Wrong side of the tracks in Madras
    Mind the gap year in Mahabalipuram
    Grave digging, scrotum flicking, a big bhang triggers a pointless train of
  thought in Konark
    Striking differences in Calcutta
    Teased in Darjeeling, limited Himalayan view
    Letting off steam walking into Nepal
    Curfew and confrontation, the relationship reaches the end of the line in Kathmandu

  A must-have book to reap major-league benefits! 
  What’s The Endgame is a guidebook designed to help families navigate youth baseball, written by former All-American outfielder at Kansas State University and professional baseball player Sean Collins, who was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in 1989. 
  This book is packed with over three decades of wisdom to help young ballplayers maximize their baseball dreams and guide parents through the journey, including: 
  ● Insights on the types of levels that are appropriate 
  ● Clearly defining their ballplayer’s role 
  ● Recognizing expectations going into a season 
  ● Principles that have helped ballplayers 
  What's the Endgame provides one-of-a-kind insights on how to pursue a baseball career, whether it’s playing for a major college baseball program or making it to big-league stadiums. 
  A note from Coach Collins: “I wish I had this book in my life when I was pursuing my baseball dreams. I had a lot of success, but there were also many mistakes made because I did not have anyone in my life early on who had the experience and know-how that could help me. That's what What’s the Endgame is designed to be. Readers will be able to define an endgame for their child’s journey from practice to team ball, and much more. Parents will be able to define the ‘why’ of what they are doing.” 
  Readers should look at this book as if they are the hardware and the information in this book is the software—a guidebook to keep handy. Let my years of successes, pain, and suffering be your guide as you help your young ballplayer chase their dreams.

  The Heart of a Champion -...

  Zane Ryder

  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.

  When the Final Whistle Blows tells the story of a season, and a farewell. This deeply personal memoir chronicles Tottenham Hotspur’s 2024/25 campaign under former coach, Ange Postecoglou, but ultimately becomes a tribute to fellow fan and friend, Cameron Whyte, beloved former leader of the Australian Tottenham Hotspur supporters club, OzSpurs in Sydney.  
  Capturing moments of shared heartbreak and humour – the madness of midnight matches watched in pubs, hotels and cruise ships around the world – it embodies the stubborn hope that unites Tottenham Hotspur supporters across the globe. 
  Yet, as Andrew’s year of travel unfolds alongside a season of remarkable highs and lows – fierce battles on the pitch, moments of thrilling promise but frequent setbacks – something far more profound begins to emerge. The final chapter in the life of Cameron ‘the Commander’ Whyte, a warrior in his fight against cancer. 
  While Spurs chase glory, Cameron inspires those around him by facing his final days – and his decision to pursue voluntary assisted dying – with the same fortitude he brought to every match. And when Spurs finally lift the Europa League trophy – just four days before Cameron’s passing – a story of glory, grief, friendship and incredible grace is complete.  
  All proceeds from this book are being donated to cancer research.
