  Bat, Ball and Field is a wonderful foray into the history and culture of cricket. 
  ‘Hotten is not just good, he is one of the best’ Cricketer 
  Chronicling the evolution of the sport since its earliest years, highlighting transcendent moments as well as tragedies, Jon Hotten lifts the seemingly impregnable veil from the Laws, batting strokes, types of bowling and the sometimes absurd names given to where fielders stand, allowing anyone a pathway into enjoying the sport, and an introductory immersion into its long history. 
  This book is divided into the three parts that make up the fundamental elements of cricket: bat, ball and field. Their harmony produces cricket’s unique environment; their centuries’ long conflict provides its innovation, adaptability and vast psychological hinterland. These sections unite to map out in a completely original way the story of the sport that began as a country pursuit and is now followed by billions across the world. 
  Hotten's autobiography is a humorous and insightful exploration of cricket's history in Britain and Europe. His popular writing style and deep understanding of the sport make this book a top pick for sports enthusiasts. 
  For fans of Stefan Szymanski (It's Football, Not Soccer), Tim Wigmore (Test Cricket), Shaun Assael (The Murder of Sonny Liston), Geoffrey C. Ward (Before the Trumpet), and Barry Johnston (The Wit of Cricket).

  Born to parents who could not escape their battles with addiction and mental illness, Kelly entered foster care before her first birthday. At ten, Kelly and her two sisters were adopted by the Atwoods, who moved them from the busy suburbs of Chicago to a remote Michigan town, where Kelly found herself trapped in an abusive home. After the death of their adoptive mother, a darker side of their adoptive father emerged, and at sixteen, Kelly made a desperate escape.She thought freedom meant she could leave her traumatic past behind her, but every misstep forward was haunted by an undeniable truth: the pain from her childhood was everywhere, in everything, and threatened to destroy her chances at the life she'd always longed for- unless she turned around to face it. 
  Saving the Lost Girl is Kelly's testament to healing, courage, and the belief that a life of peace and fulfillment is within reach, no matter how your story began.
