Sinopse

Nick Craig's ground-breaking Helming to Win was published 10 years ago to great reviews: "Many sailing books can be recycles of familiar themes and ideas. Not this one! This is a highly personal and radical, fresh view of the subject area." In the following decade since it was published, Nick has won 10 World, 3 European and 20 National Championships! That's winning more championships than most of us have attended over this period. As an amateur sailor, with a senior full-time job, Nick knows how to make the most of his time on the water. Every race is recorded in his notes, every race builds on his knowledge. This new edition of Helming to Win utilises what he has learnt from those 33 championship wins (and many other less successful events), with new learning, new anecdotes, new photos and additional captions on the photo sequences to ensure the key learnings are easy to take on. This updated breakthrough book will help you make the transition from weekend racer to national champion, just as Nick has done. Covering everything from where to look and getting 'in the groove' to mental approaches and championship sailing, you will be working your way up the leaderboard in no time. Packed full of intelligent insight, brilliant top tips and engaging photo sequences, if your goal is to win then this is the book for you!

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    From Ancient Arenas to Digital Fields: The Evolution of Sports Through the Ages is a sweeping journey through the history of human competition, play, and physical expression. Tracing the path of sport from its ritualistic beginnings in early human societies to the dazzling world of esports today, this book explores how games have always been more than just recreation. They have been windows into culture, identity, politics, and the human spirit itself. 
    The story begins in the ancient world, where contests were rituals intertwined with spiritual life, survival skills, and community celebrations. The Greeks carried this vision further with the Olympics, merging athletic excellence with ideals of harmony, discipline, and divine honor. Rome added grandeur and spectacle, transforming sport into a mass performance staged in colossal arenas, where gladiators, charioteers, and emperors used entertainment as a tool for both unity and political power. 
    Moving into the Middle Ages, the book explores the martial sports of knights, jousts, and chivalry, alongside the rough folk games played in village squares. These events reveal how sport both reflected and shaped social order, from feudal loyalties down to peasant celebrations. The Renaissance and early modern eras introduced rules, codifications, and the beginnings of clubs that would transform chaotic pastimes into recognizable sports, laying the foundation for modern professionalism. 
    The Age of Empires and colonial expansion carried games across borders, introducing cricket, football, and polo to far-flung corners of the world, where they often became symbols of both imperial power and subtle resistance. By the nineteenth century, professionalism took root—clubs, leagues, and international teams turned sport into an institution that began to dominate cultural and national identities.

    Landaluce - The Story of Seattle...

    When Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew retired from racing in 1978 to stand at stud at Spendthrift Farm, no one could be certain he would be a successful sire. But just four years later, his dark bay daughter Landaluce won the Hollywood Lassie Stakes by twenty-one lengths—a margin of victory that remains the largest ever in any race by a two-year-old at Hollywood Park. California horse racing had a new superstar, and Slew was launched on a stud career that would make him one of the most influential sires in North America. Like her father, Landaluce soon became a national celebrity, and was poised to become the next American super-horse. But those dreams ended when the two-year-old died in her stall at Santa Anita four months later, the victim of a swift and mysterious illness. Today, with her "I Love Luce" bumper stickers long gone, the filly has been largely forgotten. 
    In Landaluce: The Story of Seattle Slew's First Champion, Mary Perdue tells the story of a horse whose short but meteoric career could have changed racing history forever. Sparking comparisons to Ruffian, Landaluce helped elevate California horse racing to the national stage and could have been the first filly to ever win the Triple Crown. Perdue explores the lives and careers of Landaluce's breeders, owners, and trainer, D. Wayne Lukas, as well as her famous sire, Seattle Slew—and shows not only how one filly captured the imagination of racing fans across the country, but also set the stage for another filly turned super-horse, Zenyatta, in the decades to come.
