Summary

Liverpool FC is one of the most successful clubs in the world and has won more European trophies than any other English team with six European Cups, three UEFA cups and four Super Cups.
The club has also won 19 league titles, seven FA Cups and a record eight League Cups. But the trophies tell only half the story. The club has arguably the most passionate fans in the world and their anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone" has helped carry the team through the good times and the bad particularly following the 1989 Hillsborough disaster when 96 supporters were crushed to death.
Founded in 1892, the club has played at Anfield in all that time, and enjoyed its most successful period in the 1970s and 1980s when Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley led the club to eleven league titles and seven European trophies.
This fully-illustrated gift book looks back at all the greatest moments that have shaped the history of the Merseyside club and pays tribute to the great players from the past such as Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard to the modern superstars including Virgil Van Dijk, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mo Salah who are on their way to becoming legends under the charismatic managership of Jurgen Klopp.

    “An entertainingly clear-eyed look at big league life” from the former professional baseball outfielder and Ivy League graduate (Sports Illustrated).In The Game from Where I Stand, Glanville shows us how players prepare for games, deal with race and family issues, cope with streaks and slumps, respond to trades and injuries, and learn the joyful and painful lessons the game imparts. We see the flashpoints that cause misunderstandings and friction between players, and the imaginative ways they work to find common ground. And Glanville tells us with insight and humor what he learned from Jimmy Rollins, Alex Rodriguez, Randy Johnson, Barry Bonds, Curt Schilling, and other legendary and controversial stars.In his professional career, Glanville experienced every aspect of being a player—the first-round pick, the prospect, the disappointment, the can't-miss, the cornerstone, the veteran, the traded, the injured, the comeback kid. His eye-opening book gives fans a new level of understanding of day-to-day life in the big leagues.“Filled with sharp insights, keen observations, and great stories, his book is championship caliber.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer“[Glanville] is as adept at thinking and writing about baseball as he was at playing it.” —Men’s Journal“An engaging and thoughtful detailing of the way a smart, feeling player processed and parried with the realities of megabyte-era Major League Baseball.” ―Jim O'Donnell, Chicago Sun-Times“Like a player peering from dugout steps, surveying the field and the game, Glanville has a wonderful vantage.” ―Cleveland Plain-Dealer

    Today, millions of women and girls around the world enjoy running and entering races. It wasn't always so: 
 
 
 
● In 1961, when Julia Chase edged to the start of a Connecticut 5-miler, officials tried to push her off the road. 
 
 
 
● At the 1966 Boston Marathon, Roberta Gibb hid behind a forsythia bush, worried that police might arrest her. 
 
 
 
● The next year at Boston, Kathrine Switzer was assaulted mid-race by a furious race organizer. 
 
 
 
● In the mid-60s, Indianapolis high schooler Cheryl Bridges was told not to run anywhere near the boys' track team because she might "distract" them. 
 
 
 
● When Charlotte Lettis signed up for the University of Massachusetts cross-country team in the fall of 1971, she was told to use the men's locker room. 
 
 
 
First Ladies of Running tells the inspiring stories of these and other runners who refused to give up despite the cultural and sports barriers they faced. Legends such as Doris Brown, Francie Larrieu, Mary Decker, Jackie Hansen, Miki Gorman, and Grete Waitz are chronicled by Runner's World editor Amby Burfoot. Burfoot even runs the 1994 Marine Corps Marathon with Oprah Winfrey, whose successful finish opened the floodgates for other women runners.

    Ice hockey is perhaps the most unique sport ever created. It is one of the few team sports played on ice, and the athletes that play the game have to train very differently compared to most other sports. Hockey players need to master not only going forwards but going backward as well. 
No other sport has changed as much as ice hockey has. From the evolution of goalie techniques, the design of the skates, and the materials used to make the sticks, this game has certainly gone through many phases. In this book, Adam Rothstein goes through the history of the game, the rules, his hockey journey, and how you can become a ref, coach, or player. This audiobook was created to grow the sport of hockey.
