OVERMAN STEVEN J
Living Out Of Bounds: The Male Athlete's Everyday Life
University of Nebraska Press Lincoln: 2010. Softcover. Brand new book. Despite enormous differences in pay among professional athletes most aspects of their daily lives remain surprisingly constant across sports and income levels. Living Out of Bounds provides answers to persistent questions about what it's really like to be an athlete and discusses the filtered image of the athlete that emerges through books and other media. Steven J. Overman mines a wide array of sports biographies autobiographies memoirs and diaries to construct a representative picture of the athlete's life from the rise of American sport in the late nineteenth century to the present day. In so doing he reveals the person behind the sports celebrity as he exists on a daily basis. Individual chapters cover topics such as college athletics the pressure of celebrity the difficulty of balancing sports and everyday life sex and sexuality race in sports the obsession with the body and the difficulties associated with retiring. In the course of the work a portrait emerges that transcends individual lives. The shared experiences of devoted training of travel and hotels and of tension within and beyond the clubhouse or gym force us to appreciate the often oppressive reality of the sporting life; at the same time individual lives provide a glimpse of the rewards that make sports so compelling to audiences and athletes across America.

THE ANTARCTIC OCEAN.
London: Whittlesey House / McGraw-Hill 1941. 254 pp 9 1/4" H. Map endpapers. B&w photographs maps. "The search for a land greater than the United States and Mexico began centuries ago but it was not until a little more than a hundred years ago that an American sealer Nat Palmer first glimpsed its mainland. After the fanatic fumblings of explorers like Quiros the discoverer-priest hard-headed men pushed farther and farther south to learn what lay in the land of mist and snow. Captain Cook sailed around the land without seeing it; Lieut. Charles Wilkes an American sailed along its coast for 1500 miles. Capt. James Clark Ross the famous Englishman broke into the silent sea which bears his name and for the first time brought back some knowledge of this great continent with its high barriers of ice its lofty mountain ranges and a live volcano its tremendous beauty. Since then men have been to the South Pole on foot and in airplanes have lived on ships fast in the ice and on the ice itself. Here are found the names of Scott and Shackleton of Charcot and Amundsen of Byrd and Ellsworth. This is the story of the almost incredible hardships men overcame because they were driven to rip the veil from one of the most majestic and fabulous regions of the earth."
