  The best of Irish Soccer. The kickstart the country needed. The men, the excitement, the places, the stories, the goals and above all, the journey.
  They were the best days of our lives. This is how so many of the Irish remember Italia 90 and all that came with it – the atmosphere of wild celebration, the scenes of chaos, the fine madness.
  Declan Lynch recalls the great moments – Packie's save and his leap into immortality; Pavarotti's Nessun Dorma and U2's Put 'Em Under Pressure; Kevin Sheedy's sweet strike; and all that drinking.
  Days of Heaven is full of hilarious accounts of how the Irish abandoned reality in that glorious time called Italia 90.

  “Captures what basketball meant to Hoosier players and fans in the ‘40s and ‘50s . . . [a] nostalgic journey through a simpler time when basketball was king.” —Steve Alford 
   
  The years 1945–1959 marked the time when basketball truly became the sport of Indiana. High school basketball bound together communities across the state, and interest in the sport rose to a new level. The period saw the Milan/Muncie Central game, given new fame through the movie Hoosiers. It also saw the first televised game, the start of the career of Oscar Robertson (who played for Crispus Attucks), and friendly town rivalries to build the state’s biggest gymnasium. It was a time before the massive consolidations of the 1960s and ‘70s, with more than seven hundred teams involved in basketball tournaments. (There are some three hundred now.) 
   
  In this book, Greg Guffey captures the flavor of the period—and showcases many of the best teams, players, and coaches.

  Having covered the southern section of the Central Wales Line and its  branches in Swansea to Llandovery, this volume traces the line from  Llandovery to Craven Arms, where it met the North & West line, taking its traffic on to Shrewsbury. This takes in the remarkable feats of engineering  the Victorians undertook to forge this line across the Welsh hills, as we  take a nostalgic look at a railway lost; its country stations, signal boxes  and heavy goods and express trains largely replaced by simple request  stops and single-car diesel units.
