  Flat Out and Fearless - There's...

  With a racing career spanning more than four decades, coming second is never an option for Peter Lindenberg.
  Troubled by a lack of self-confidence, Peter's 'average' childhood saw a bitter parent who doubted his abilities, a demanding school system that forced him to fit the mould, a younger brother who was better at everything, and brutal, undeserved beatings with a sjambok.
  But when Peter tasted the buzz of barefoot water-skiing he found it impossible to resist, and went on to break records, earn numerous Springbok Colours, and win many world championships.
  This, however, was just the start.
  Little did Peter know the sporting magic that would follow in his life – first as a powerboat racer and then as a race car driver.
  Despite counting on pins and metal to hold his battered body intact, being arrested unjustly, a serious motor racing accident with his car going up in flames, and a brain haemorrhage, Peter keeps going flat out and quickly ranks on the international championship charts, cheats death twice, and presses the reset button to positively influence a failed marriage.
  Flat Out and Fearless is Peter's cut-to-the-chase life journey that has rendered him one bionic man who is proud of his blatant honesty and his courageous quest to uplift and transform the lives of the downtrodden.

  Gordie - A Hockey Legend

  The author of Cold War shoots and scores with the only full-length biography to cover the entire playing career of the Red Wings’ superstar.   Before Gretzky, before Russians played in the National Hockey League, before multimillion-dollar salaries, there was Gordie Howe: the greatest star ever to play hockey. This richly illustrated, thoroughly researched and completely unauthorized biography takes readers behind the sports icon to reveal a man who remains immensely popular with young and old.   The Howe legend begins on the frozen sloughs of Saskatchewan, where a painfully shy boy from a poverty-ridden family discovered his one advantage in life: major athletic talent. Signed by the Detroit Red Wings at 16, Howe joined celebrated teammates Sid Abel, Ted Lindsay, Terry Sawchuk and Red Kelly to forge a team that dominated the NHL as only the Montreal Canadiens and Edmonton Oilers have since. Six-time leading scorer, six-time Hart Trophy winner as the most valuable player, Howe surpassed Rocket Richard’s NHL goals record to reach an amazing total of 801, unmatched for years until finally Gretzky caught up to his mentor and idol.   “Far superior to the hero-worshiping, gee-whiz, then-we-played, ghostwritten autobiographies so popular today . . . Must reading for hockey fans.” —Booklist   “A very impressive book . . . thoughtful, well-written and marvelously evocative of the era when the NHL had only six teams and the Red Wings were one of the best . . . an excellent biography.” —The Sporting News

  The story of the Potomac is the story of America—take a historic hike with this fascinating guide.   The great Potomac River begins in the Alleghenies and flows 383 miles through some of America's most historic lands before emptying into the Chesapeake Bay. The course of the river drove the development of the region and the path of a young republic. Maryland's first Catholic settlers came to its banks in 1634 and George Washington helped settle the new capital on its shores. During the Civil War the river divided North and South, and it witnessed John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry and the bloody Battle of Antietam.    In this book, Garrett Peck leads readers on a journey down the Potomac, from its first fount at Fairfax Stone in West Virginia to its mouth at Point Lookout in Maryland. Combining history with recreation, Peck has written an indispensible guide to the nation's river.

  Take Me Out to the Ballgame

  Timothy B. Shutt

  Baseball has been celebrated as “America’s National Pastime”  for more than one hundred and fifty years, and recalls what, at  least in retrospect, seems to be an earlier, more innocent age—  long summer afternoons and sandlot ball, fresh rural air or  brownstone stoops. In part, this is because most of those who  love the game played as children and followed their favorite bigleague  teams as children. It is not a game one grows out of, and  once smitten, most baseball lovers remain true, passing on their  love of the game to their children.  And the game itself is ever young, the succession of baseball  heroes unbroken: Honus Wagner to Ty Cobb to Babe Ruth and  Lou Gehrig, to Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams, to Henry  Aaron, Mickey Mantle, and Willie Mays, to Mike Schmidt, and  Cal Ripken, and Tony Gwynn, to the stars of the present. Cy  Young, Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson, Lefty Grove, Bob  Feller, Sandy Koufax, Juan Marichal, and Bob Gibson, each  generation has its heroes and cherishes the memory of those  gone before as an ongoing counterpart to daily life—through  the War and the Depression, through the fifties and sixties, and  so on to the present day. This course is a celebration of baseball’s  rich past—and of a game stronger than ever.
