Burt L. Standish

Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

In "Lefty Locke Pitcher-Manager," Burt L. Standish weaves a compelling narrative that combines the thrill of baseball with the complexities of leadership and personal growth. Set against the backdrop of America'Äôs favorite pastime, the novel employs a straightforward yet engaging style that reflects the era of early 20th-century sports literature. Through the journey of Lefty Locke, the titular character grapples with the pressures of managing a team while also confronting personal dilemmas, showcasing not only athletic prowess but also profound introspection, a common theme in Standish'Äôs works, which echoes the broader cultural fascination with heroes in American sports history. Burt L. Standish, a pseudonymous figure whose real identity is often linked to the prolific writer and editor William D. O'Connor, crafted narratives that resonated deeply with young readers of his time. His own experiences with sports, coupled with a penchant for storytelling, likely influenced his development of relatable protagonists who navigate the trials of ambition and moral integrity, particularly in the competitive realm of baseball. For fans of sports fiction and timeless tales of perseverance, "Lefty Locke Pitcher-Manager" is a splendid recommendation. Standish'Äôs adept characterization and vivid depiction of baseball life not only captivate but also inspire readers to reflect on the virtues of determination and teamwork, making this book a must-read for anyone seeking both entertainment and deeper meaning.

Inshallah United: A story of...

Nooruddean Choudry

Longlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Awards 2023
Nooruddean Choudry was born in 1979 — the year Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister, Sid Vicious died of a heroin overdose, Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the last Shah of Iran, and Tim Martin opened his first Wetherspoons. Also that year, a local football club lost the Cup Final to Arsenal courtesy of a man named Sunderland. That club would become an all-consuming obsession for young Nooruddean, who would one day become a small brown man and, vitally, also a Red.
Inshallah United is the story of the first British-born son of a Pakistani family living in England’s second city. And geography is important, because if it wasn't for his mum and dad settling in Manchester rather than anywhere else in the world, so much of what makes up Nooruddean's identity could have been so different. As it was, he grew up as a Muslim, Manchester United supporting, Morrissey-loving, Maggie-hating, working-class Manc.
Inshallah United is about growing up as a strictly halal Stretford Ender; a devout Muslim and diehard Red. It’s about praying five times a day that United would sign Alan Shearer and knock the Scousers off their perch. And it’s a deeply personal account of life as a Muslim Asian Mancunian kid in the late 80s and 90s, bookmarked by the most successful period in Manchester United's history.
Inshallah United, the latest memoir by Nooruddean Choudry, is a top-rated autobiography that offers a humorous and heartfelt exploration of his life as a devout Muslim and diehard Red. This biography is a must-read for those interested in the topic of cultural identity and recreation.
For fans of Chris Blackhurst (The World's Biggest Cash Machine), Wayne Barton (The Last Busby Babe), Jonathan Wilson (Kick and Run), Andy Spinoza (Manchester unspun), and Rob Carless (Here, There & Everywhere).
