Sinossi

Embark on a captivating journey through the pages of "The Boundless Blue Glory," a historical fiction novel that transports readers to the heart of the legendary All-Star Blue-Gray Football Game. Set against the backdrop of post-Civil War America, this gripping tale delves into the lives of extraordinary characters and the transformative power of sportsmanship.

In the small town of Montgomery, Alabama, the year is 1892. The nation still bears the scars of the Civil War, but a glimmer of hope emerges with the inaugural All-Star Blue-Gray Football Game. Players from the North and South, once divided by conflict, come together on the gridiron in a display of unity and reconciliation.

Enter Coach Dynamite, a charismatic and enigmatic figure who leads the Blue team with unwavering determination. His unconventional strategies and fiery spirit captivate players and fans alike. On the Gray team, a young quarterback named Johnny Reb emerges as a beacon of hope, inspiring his teammates with his unwavering grit and resilience.

As the game approaches, tensions rise both on and off the field. The weight of history and the expectations of a nation rest heavily on the shoulders of these young men. But amidst the pressure, they discover the true meaning of camaraderie and the power of sports to heal old wounds.

With every play, the Blue and Gray teams engage in a fierce battle, mirroring the struggles and triumphs of a nation still grappling with its past. The crowd erupts with cheers and jeers, their emotions swaying with the ebb and flow of the game.

"The Boundless Blue Glory" is more than just a football story; it's a testament to the indomitable human spirit. It's a tale of redemption, forgiveness, and the enduring legacy of the All-Star Blue-Gray Football Game. Through vivid storytelling and rich historical detail, this novel captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history and explores the transformative power of sports to unite a divided nation.

    Thieves Liars and Mountaineers -...

    This is the tale of Mark Horrell’s not-so-nearly ascent of Gasherbrum in Pakistan, of how one man’s boredom and frustration was conquered by a gutsy combination of exhaustion, cowardice, and sheer mountaineering incompetence. 
    He made not one, not two, but three intrepid assaults, some of which got quite a distance beyond Base Camp, and overcame many perilous circumstances along the way. The mountaineer Joe Simpson famously crawled for three days with a broken leg, but did he ever have to read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown while waiting for a weather window? 
    But that’s enough about Mark’s attempt; there were some talented climbers on the mountain as well, and this story is also about them. How did they get on? Heroes, villains, oddballs and madmen – 8,000m peaks attract them all, and drama, intrigue and cock-ups aplenty were inevitable.

    Moonlight Elk - One Woman's Hunt...

    Christie Green learned to hunt in order to complement the food she grew in her garden. As an act of practical agency this fulfilled her needs, yet a restlessness stirred within. She longed for a life defined by something deeper than cultural norms. Could she travel beyond the supposed domain of women and venture into the wild, where men were said to prevail? 
     
     
     
    Here, hunting in the wild, the moon cycles through her, rising and falling, whispering messages from the dark side. Rather than circle the hot insistence of a masculine sun, Green begins to attune to the more elusive, mysterious murmuration of the moon. Animals and dreams, lunar partners, choreograph Green through time and space. She longs to dream, toil, live, and love at the edges of the fertile ecotones where she can withdraw inward, retreat like an animal into hiding, and then come into full, radiant view on her own terms. Green sheds the burdens of her domestic self and witnesses the animals defying reason as they walk her into their world, ambling her along, straddling night and day, waking and sleeping. Through them, definitions of gender dissolve and boundaries blur. In the process, Green eclipses western society's definitions of her as a woman, mother, lover, and entrepreneur, courageously birthing her own independence through a profound connection to the animals and the places they call home.
