Synopsis Early in 2004 two writers and Red Sox fans Stewart O'Nan and Stephen King decided to chronicle the upcoming season one of the most hotly anticipated in baseball history. They would sit together at Fenway. They would exchange emails. They would write about the games. And as it happened they would witness the greatest comeback ever in sports and the first Red Sox championship in eighty-six years. What began as a Sox-filled summer like any other is now a fan's notes for the ages. The New York Times - Janet Maslin The authors rise to the occasion. They present appealingly hotheaded accounts of each game complete with unedited trivia "also new are Toronto's black road uniforms which I don't like" and you-are-there minutiae. In a year when The Daily News used "Hell Freezes Over" as a headline here comes the 409-page souvenir that is Faithful reliving it all. Biography Few authors have tapped into our secret fears as adeptly as Stephen King Master of the Macabre and one of the most widely read novelists writing today. With his trademark blend of fantasy horror and psychological suspense this prolific and immensely popular contemporary writer continues to remind us that evil is still a potent force in the world.

O'REILLY JEAN & CAHN SUSAN K. EDITORS
Women And Sports In The United States: A Documentary Reader
University Press of New England Lebanon: 2007. Softcover. Brand new book. This is the only anthology available documenting 100 years of women in American sports. A spectacular transformation in women's sports has occurred over the past century in colleges high schools and recreational leagues across the nation. Gradual changes during the late 1950s and 1960s within the fields of women's physical education and amateur sport provided the initial energy for this transformation. But it took the rebirth of a grassroots feminist movement in the late 1960s and 1970s to catalyze the radical changes in women's athletic opportunities and attitudes toward female athletes. The assimilation of feminist principles into the broader popular culture solidified the belief that sport plays a positive role in the lives of girls and women. Political activists for women's rights codified this attitude with the passage of Title IX of the 1972 Federal Education Amendments a law banning gender discrimination in educational settings thus guaranteeing women's legal right to an equitable share of athletic opportunities and resources. Though the sea change in American women's sports is evident in schools the media and local playing fields scholars are still in the early stages of fully examining the causes and impacts of this historic change. Women and Sports in the United States brings together scholarly articles journalism political and legal documents and first-person accounts that collectively explore women's sports in America with emphasis on the post-Title IX era.
