Summary

There will never be anyone like Michael Jordan, an icon beyond the hardwood. From his famous shrug through the flu game, His Airness has provided some of the most memorable moments in sports history. Arguably one of the greatest competitors and basketball players of all time, Jordan transformed what it meant to be a global athlete. A marketing pot of gold, an ambassador for basketball, and a business savvy professional, Michael experienced all the highs that basketball had to offer. And all the lows. Passed up in the draft and bullied by the bad boy Pistons, he prevailed in his sport. Follow Associated Press reports and photographers as they tell the whole story.
Available since: 03/01/2015.

    East of Ireland Walks

    River and canal walks can have special appeal, the scenery always changing due to flowing water, weirs, locks and the changing countryside. Ireland's rivers and canals are rich in wildlife, history and folklore, and many can be explored on mostly flat, little-used trails. These hidden corridors of wildness through rural and urban Ireland reveal remnants of a time when trade, transport and industry in Ireland revolved around water rather than roads. Lenny Antonelli introduces some of the best river and canal trails in the east and east midlands, from short strolls to a five-day trek along the Barrow. These walks encompass iconic Irish rivers such as the Liffey, the Boyne and the Nore; and waterways such as the Grand and Royal Canals. There are lesser-known trails here too, from ravines in the Slieve Bloom Mountains to the young rivers of Wicklow's deep wooded valleys. For those new to walking, these trails form easy introductions. For experienced walkers, they provide new and less-trodden paths through places of unexpected beauty. • Also available: 'Dublin & Wicklow: A Walking Guide' by Helen Fairbairn

    For coaches that want to evolve and learn new tricks about coaching cross country, then HowExpert Guide to High School Cross Country Coaching is the book for you. The author Kyle Daubs is a young coach that started a cooperative, cross country program between two schools. In its four year existence, the boys and girls rose to the top of their conference standings. 
The author not only brings five years of coaching cross country experience but also brings a youthful approach to the game. The author received his bachelor’s and master’s degree in special education. He has taught special education the last four years. During this time, he started the cross country cooperative for Lowpoint-Washburn-Roanoke-Benson in 2016. During his time, he guided the girls cross country team to a conference championship in his second year of coaching and took the team to the IHSA Sectional meet. 
He has also coached track since 2015. Since 2015, he has sent 22 athletes to state competition, including coaching three all-state relays and three all-state individuals. 
As mentioned in the book, he claims that he does not know all methods to be successful, but has built a program that has sustained competitiveness among small schools. The author states that this book is great for first-time coaches, and even older coaches who want to learn a few new tricks. 
The book is divided up among seven chapters. The chapter topics range from coaching philosophy, keys to motivation, planning, improving race performance, preparing, and reflection. The book also contains training plans that can range for beginning runners to the advanced. 
The book also talks about how to handle the behind the scenes work. This includes working with parents, media, other coaches, and the administration. If there were a complete guide on how to coach a sport, this book is a must read. 
HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.
