Socceroos in Scotland

Paul Murphy

Sinopsis

From Glasgow to the Highlands, Aussies have left their mark in Scotland.
 
Socceroos in Scotland is the untold story of how Australian footballers have gone from fringe curiosities to key players in Scottish football. With roots tracing back to the early influence of Scottish immigrants on the Australian game, the dynamic flipped in the 1980s as a wave of adventurous Aussies crossed the globe in search of opportunity.
 
From Dave Mitchell blazing a trail at Rangers to Ange Postecoglou rewriting history at Celtic, this book charts four decades of goals, grit, and groundbreaking moments. Featuring exclusive interviews with stars like Tony Vidmar, Scott McDonald, and Jackson Irvine and rare insights from coaches, teammates, and journalists, Socceroos in Scotland celebrates the rise of a footballing bond that has impacted both nations.

Raising an Athlete - The Real...

Kayla Lee Bailey

The most important moment in youth sports happens in the car ride home—not on the field. 
As a sports parent, you know the feeling. Your child walks off the field quieter than usual, shoulders tight, and you want to help. But what should you say? Most parents don't realize that the invisible work—how you respond to failure, when you stay quiet, and what you reinforce in those small moments—shapes whether your child builds real confidence or carries pressure that follows them off the field. 
Raising An Athlete is not about developing professional players. It's about raising humans who understand themselves, handle pressure with grace, and know their worth isn't tied to wins or stats. 
Through real stories and the proven Car Ride Method™ framework, Kayla Lee Bailey shows you exactly how to navigate the complex role of being a sports parent—without adding weight to what your athlete already carries. You'll discover why the invisible scoreboard matters more than the one everyone's watching, how to build real confidence through failure, recognize burnout before it's too late, and help your athlete see themselves as more than their sport. 
Because raising an athlete isn't about the sport. It's about the human.

One Small Step - The Sunday...

Paul Sinton-Hewitt

Read by the author, Paul Sinton-Hewitt, and his co-author, Matt Whyman. Including an audio-exclusive Q&A between Paul and Matt.This is the story of a simple idea that turned into a global movement. This is the story of parkrun, told for the very first time from the man who started it all.Growing up in the brutal care system of South Africa, Paul Sinton-Hewitt had a lonely, difficult childhood. Yet he found solace in running – a simple pleasure that taught him resilience and offered a young boy a sense of self-worth.With dogged determination, Paul built a stable family life for himself and eventually settled in the UK. But by 2004 he was struggling to hold it all together. He’d lost the successful career he’d worked so hard for, his marriage had broken down, and now a devastating injury threatened to cut him off from the running club which had been a lifeline.In search of connection and purpose, Paul came up with a simple idea. He would start a weekly time trial run every Saturday morning in his local park. There would be no winners or losers, it would always be free and Paul would be there every week – even on Christmas Day – whether or not anyone else came. Little did he know that from just thirteen runners on that first Saturday, parkrun would grow into a 10 million strong community across five continents. Twenty years on parkrun continues to grow, bringing together people from all walks of life in search of health, happiness and community.Filled with hope and optimism, One Small Step is a powerful affirmation of how coming together in simple ways can change our own lives and might even change the world.

Valle de Benasque - Parque...

Rafel Vidaller

El Valle de Benasque - la Vall de Benás - reúne las más altas montañas del Pirineo, los macizos de la Maladeta, Llardana o Perdiguero que han subyugado a los viajeros a lo largo de los tiempos. Impresionantes vertientes que reflejan los numerosos lagos que descansan bajo cada circo glaciar, creando paisajes de una belleza que corta el aliento. A sus pies, prados de montaña, bosques, ríos, aguas que bajan en cascadas que multiplican las vistas en rincones sorprendentes.
En este libro proponemos una serie de excursiones que recorren la cascada de Aiguallut bajo el Aneto, la Maladeta en las aguas de Gorgutes, los saltos de agua entre los árboles del Botánico, el idílico valle de Estós, la sorprendente montaña caliza de Cotiella, el potente circo que rodea el ibón de Llosás, las cascadas de Sarllé, Gorgues Galantes, Alba, Espigantosa, las maravillas de Batisielles y Escarpinosa....
Y los pueblos, pequeños todos, donde admirar la parte habitada de los valles, degustar la gastronomía pirenaica y apreciar los detalles de una arquitectura que habla de clima, de recursos limitados sabiamente aprovechados, de iglesias modestas pero que traen ecos del medievo y de una historia apasionante.
