Halberstam David
Everything They Had: Sports Writing from David Halberstam
Hyperion Books 2008. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Like-new book. Appears unread. Stated First Edition. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 401 pages. "Sometimes sports mirrors society sometimes it allows us to understand the larger society a little better. But mostly it is a world of entertainment of talented and driven young men and women who do certain things with both skill and passion." --David Halberstam David Halberstam was a distinguished journalist and historian of American politics. He was also a sports writer. Everything They Had brings together for the first time his articles from newspapers and magazines a wide-ranging collection edited by Glenn Stout selected over the full scope of Halberstam's five decades as one of America's most honored journalists. These are dazzling portraits of some of the most compelling sports figures of our era the superstars of popular sports like basketball football and baseball but also fishing soccer and rowing and the amateur athletes who play for the love of the game. In "My Dinner with Theodore" Halberstam recounts his long anticipated--and unforgettable--meeting with Red Sox legend Ted Williams. Against the backdrop of 1960s Nashville he beautifully recounts a lifelong love of football in "How I Fell in Love with the NFL." And "Men Without Women" set on a fishing expedition in Patagonia is more than a hunt for giant brown trout--it is a story of fishing friendship and fellowship. These and many more stories exemplify the breadth and depth of David Halberstam's devotion to diverse sports and his respect and fascination for the men and women who play them so well. The result is an intimate and personal collection that reveals the issues and the ideals David Halberstam cared about--racial equality friendship loyalty and character--and creates a vivid and unforgettable portrait of the author himself. Everything They Had takes its rightful place alongside Halberstam's bestselling sports titles which include The Breaks of the Game The Amateurs Summer of '49 and The Education of a Coach.

Jason Kathrine Edited & Translated By
Name and Tears and Other Stories: Forty Years of Italian Fiction Graywolf Short Fiction Series
St Paul Minnesota U.S.A.: Graywolf Press 1990. Book. Fine. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 231 pages. From Publishers Weekly The essentially humane spirit informing the explosion of literary forms in post-WW II Italy suffuses this collection. Short stories from 26 authors explore such characteristics as neorealism or regionalism and demonstrate the inventiveness and political implications of recent Italian fiction. Best are the samplings of authors likely to be unfamiliar to Americans including Gesualdo Bufalino whose prose is mannered and nearly hallucinatory; the satirist Luigi Malerba; and Guiseppe Pontiggia with a critical voice that is never arch. Jason translator of Tommaso Landolfi's Words in Commotion makes no attempts to canonize. Major figures such as Primo Levi and Elsa Morante are omitted for technical not "aesthetic" reasons she states; others including Cesare Pavese are queerly deemed "marginal" to the scope of the omnibus while still others e.g. Italo Calvino Anna Maria Ortese Natalia Ginzburg are represented by works that predate by several decades their most developed styles. Jason's preface is as unusually cogent as it is concise; she also supplies helpful thumbnail introductions to each author along with graceful distinctive translations. Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information Inc. Graywolf Press Paperback

Reilly Rick
The Life of Reilly: The Best of Sports Illustrated's Rick Reilly
Total Sports Publishing 2000. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-nice clean condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 272 pages. Witty irreverent opinionated honest laugh-out-loud funny -- these are just a few of the adjectives that have been used to describe the writing of Rick Reilly the six-time National Sportswriter of the Year who has entertained the readers of Sports Illustrated for 15 years with his unique perspective on the world of sports and life in general. Now in The Life of Reilly Rick has selected 66 of his finest stories to create a collection that is sure to amuse inform and provoke sports fans and non-fans alike. The book is organized around Reilly's seven Rs: Rants Raves Reality Roots Rough Wrecks and Royalty. His subjects range from the sublime -- UCLA coach John Wooden one of sports' most honorable men -- to the ridiculous -- Reilly's terrifying trip aboard an F-14D Tomcat fighter -- and also include a healthy dose of opinion on everything from the ubiquity of the Nike symbol to the overpaid brats we call professional athletes these days. There are features on sports greats rants against high-profile athletic programs tales of golfing glory in and out of the spotlight reflections on enduring values and the true meaning of sacrifice and personal stories about the Reilly family's trials and tribulations. Evident throughout is Reilly's trademark humor on ample display in his story of playing golf with President Clinton whom he finds himself with horror calling "Pard" his discussion of cheerleading mania "Cheerleaders from all over tried to write me hate mail but cheerleader hate mail is not terribly scary. They'd write 'I hope you die!' and put a little heart over the 'i.'" and his experience as the coach of a quirky Little League team his players are more concerned with how to eat sunflower seeds without using their hands than with the intricacies of baseball. Treat yourself to The Life of Reilly -- those who know Reilly's work will be pleased to revisit the master; those who don't will be thrilled to discover an extraordinary talent.

Gibson John
HATING AMERICA: THE NEW WORLD SPORT
New York New York U.S.A.: Regan Books 2004. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. Appears unread. Stated First Edition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 289 pages. John Gibson is one of the Fox News Channel's most outspoken personalities. Now as the aftershocks of the war in Iraq reverberate around the world Gibson exposes the outrageous tenor of anti-American sentiment filling newsprint and airwaves beyond our borders and how disagreements over policy have mushroomed into poisonous hatred. From the "Arab street" to the halls of even the most historically friendly foreign governments extreme anti-Americanism has grown disturbingly pervasive throughout the world since the shell-shocking moment of 9/11. Over the year that followed Gibson writes "I began to watch the overseas press with a morbid fascination punctuated by bursts of outrage. The things that were being said about America and Americans were marked by an off-the-charts level of venom a scandalous parade of mistaken assumptions an endless font of suspicion mistrust and the promulgation of outright willful lies. The viciousness of commentary on America was breathtaking." And as Gibson traces the hate speech has gone well beyond the usual suspects in the Middle East infecting our erstwhile allies in Europe Asia and even Canada. British Prime Minister Tony Blair complained that "some of the rhetoric I hear used about America is more savage than some of the rhetoric I hear about Saddam and the Iraqi regime." Presumptuous Belgian officials attempted to bring American officials up on war-crimes charges. And special hatred was reserved for President George W. Bush whom one Australian newspaper dismissed as "the village idiot." As America defends its security in the ongoing war on terror Gibson argues we must be prepared to face this growing tide of resentment abroad which will only result in serious consequences for the haters themselves. For the anti-Americans he argues would "like us to forget that those who hate us may eventually try to kill us -- because they now know that we will never allow that to happen without exacting a price on those who would attempt it.".

Defying convention the recent debutante took the early morning streetcar to the spittoon-filled hard-swearing offices of her big-city newspaper to 'hunt and peck' on an old Underwood typewriter as one of the first woman columnists at the South's largest newspaper. From 1922 until 1926 Mitchell completed dozens of articles interviews sketches and book reviews only a handful of which have ever been reprinted. Included here are those pieces singled out by Mitchell as among her favourites those of which she was most proud. Hill Street Pr Hardcover

Alterman Eric; Green Mark
What Liberal Media: The Truth About Bias and the News
New York New York U.S.A.: Basic Books 2003. Book. Very Good . Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. NO remainder marks or price clippings. NO tears inside book. About half of the pages show highlighting. Does NOT interfere with reading. Dustcover shows slight wear NO tears. Tight spine. 322 pages. The question of whose interests the media protects and how has achieved holy-grail-like significance. Is media bias keeping us from getting the whole story If so who is at fault Is it the liberals who are purported to be running the newsrooms television and radio stations of this country duping an unsuspecting public into mistaking their party line for news Or is it the conservatives who have identified media bias as a reliably inflammatory rallying cry around which to consolidate their political base as they cynically work the refs The media has become so pervasive in our lives that regardless of exactly where on the ideological fence you sit the question of media bias has become all but unavoidable.Most of the criticism and anger has so far emanated from the political Right which has offered us the rather unconvincing argument that a systematic Left bias is destroying the quality of news and debate in our country today. Journalist and historian Eric Alterman begs to differ.What Liberal Media confronts the question of liberal bias and in so doing provides a sharp and utterly convincing assessment of the realities of political bias in the news. In distinct contrast to the conclusions reached by Ann Coulter Bernard Goldberg Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly Alterman finds the media to be on the whole far more conservative than liberal though it is possible to find evidence for both views. The fact that conservatives howl so much louder and more effectively than liberals is one significant reason that big media is always on its guard for liberal bias but gives conservative bias a free pass. After reading What Liberal Media you will understand that the real news story of recent years is not whether this newspaper or that news anchor is biased but rather to what extent the entire news industry is organized to communicate conservative views and push our politics to the right - regardless of how liberal any given reporter may be.

Frazier Ian Editor
Humor Me: An Anthology of Funny Contemporary Writing Plus Some Great Old Stuff Too
New York New York U.S.A.: Ecco Pr 2010. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. Stated First Edition. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Remainder mark on bootom. NO price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 321 pages. From Booklist Funny is as funny does and the writers in Frazier's zany anthology of amusement do humor exceptionally well. From the inimitable Roy Blount Jr. to the irrepressible Bruce Jay Friedman the wry Calvin Trillin to the withering David Sedaris a veritable who's who of contemporary and classic humorists examine all manner of human frailty through a slightly skewed lens. The fact that sometimes the humans are not of this earth or are oh say deceased bloodthirsty conquerors matters not at all. Frazier's point is that there is humor to be found everywhere. Indeed his own Lamentations of the Father in which the rules of parenthood are laid down in the voice of the Almighty sets the standard for other laugh-inducing entries such as Steve Martin's droll analysis of our new century in The Third Millennium: So Far So Good and Simon Rich's clever adults-versus-children table-turning scenario in Play Nice. With an accessible balance of short slapstick and cerebral satire Frazier's collection is good for more than a few laughs. --Carol Haggas Product Description Humor Me is a literary cavalcade of contemporary American funnymen and funnywomen of the page. Selected by the renowned humor-ist Ian Frazier and featuring more than fifty pieces of the greatest comic writing of our time the book includes such masters of the form as Roy Blount Jr. Bruce Jay Friedman Veronica Geng Jack Handey Garrison Keillor Steve Martin and Calvin Trillin as well as work by newer comic stars like Andy Borowitz Larry Doyle Simon Rich George Saunders and David Sedaris. The pieces were published in the past thirty years in such popular magazines as The New Yorker McSweeney's The Atlantic National Lampoon and Outside. But the book also includes a handful of older comic masterpieces that nobody in need of a laugh should ever be without among them classics by Bret Harte Elizabeth Bishop Donald Barthelme and Mark Twain.

Wright George T. Editor
Seven American Stylists from Poe to Mailer: An Introduction
University of Minnesota Press 1973. Ex-Library. Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-good clean ex-library hardback. Usual library markings. Inner pages are free from writing and tears. 318 pages. Tight spine clean pages. Product Description This book provides critical introductions biographical information and selected bibliographies for seven outstanding American literary stylists. It is based on the material of seven pamphlets in the series of University of Minnesota Pamphlets on American Writers: Edgar Allan Poe by Roger Asselineau George Santayana by Newton P. Stallknecht Stephen Crane by Jean Cazemajou Gertrude Stein by Frederick J. Hoffman Vladimir Nabokov by Julian Moynahan Robert Penn Warren by Paul West and Norman Mailer by Richard Foster. In an introduction Professor Wright finds many threads of similarity as well as diversity among the seven writers. He points out: "They seem at first about as miscellaneous a set of distinguished writers as American literature could provide but of all seven at least this can be said: that early in any discussion of their work we must talk of style." He observes that as American authors go they make an unusually cosmopolitan group but they belong to different eras and no two of them are associated with the same literary movement. All have written fiction but also poetry. They have produced works of various kinds - criticism autobiography translations plays opera libretti political commentary and film. Their common interest in style he suggests points to other similarities of structure and outlook peculiar perhaps to American stylists to American writers generally or even to literature since Poe. In conclusion he writes: "Mailer tells us that 'Style is character' and by this standard even the most bizarre of the writers before us is a solid citizen. But it is also possible to say that nowadays style is poetry and to claim for these seven stylists the name of poet.". University of Minnesota Press Hardcover

Review "What stands out as particularly effective in the text are the succinct understandable explanations. In addition the examples are well-chosen. These elements are also what students would respond positively to." "I have been teaching Composition for almost 20 years and this is the best book I have found for students taking the second part of English Comp - which is usually Literature based." "Griffith has put together a highly useful text one that is especially strong on practical instructions for writing about literature. Much thought has gone into the text's organization and content. In my opinion it would be eminently useful in introductory literature courses that emphasize interpreting and writing about literature." "I used Roberts for many years but I find Griffith easier for students to understand and follow.". Harcourt College Pub Paperback
