SMITH JOHN MATTHEW
The Sons Of Westwood: John Wooden Ucla And The Dynasty That Changed College Basketball
University of Illinois Press Urbana and Chicago: 2013. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. College basketball's most dynamic dynasty on and off the hardwood For more than a decade the UCLA dynasty defined college basketball. In twelve seasons from 1964 to 1975 John Wooden's teams won ten national titles including seven consecutive championships. The Bruins made history by breaking numerous records but they also rose to prominence during a turbulent age of political unrest and youthful liberation. When Lew Alcindor and Bill Walton--the most famous college basketball players of their generation--spoke out against racism poverty and the Vietnam War they carved out a new role for athletes casting their actions on and off the court in a political light. The Sons of Westwood tells the story of the most significant college basketball program at a pivotal period in American cultural history. It weaves together a story of sports and politics in an era of social and cultural upheaval a time when college students and college athletes joined the civil rights movement demonstrated against the Vietnam War and rejected the dominant Cold War culture. This is the story of America's culture wars played out on the basketball court by some of college basketball's most famous players and its most memorable coach. John Matthew Smith is an assistant professor of history at Georgia Tech. "A highly readable cultural study of one of the greatest teams in sports history."--Kirkus Reviews "This volume uncovers the indelible link between sports and society in the US. While he focuses on Wooden and UCLA men's basketball Smith remains mindful of the larger forces molding the young men who played for the 'Wizard of Westwood.' Highly recommended."--Choice "John Matthew Smith may be the first author to fully and fairly assess the University of California at Los Angeles UCLA basketball program during its miraculous run of ten championships from 1964 to 1975. . . . revealing and insightful."--Journal of Sport History "This is the John Wooden book I've been waiting to read--a well-written meticulously researched and astute portrait of one of the sporting world's most interesting and influential characters. John Matthew Smith's book is at once a pleasure to read and a solid work of history."--Jonathan Eig New York Times bestselling author of Opening Day: The Story of Jackie Robinson's First Season "The Sons of Westwood is an excellent wide-ranging history not only of UCLA basketball and the Wizard of Westwood but of the great social movements which characterized the era of the Wooden Dynasty. I recommend it to any who love basketball or are interested in one of the more interesting periods of recent American life. John Matthew Smith is a historian on which we should all keep our eye."--Charles E. Young Chancellor Emeritus UCLA "In this carefully-researched study John Matthew Smith has provided an entertaining and insightful look at college basketball's most successful coach and team dynasty. Mixing sport history with social history Smith reveals the complex reality behind iconic coach John Wooden and his UCLA Bruin teams as well as the not-so-innocent days of college athletics. Fans and scholars of college sports should not miss this important book."--Charles H. Martin author of Benching Jim Crow: The Rise and Fall of the Color Line in Southern College Sports 1890-1980 "A fascinating account of the greatest dynasty in the history of college athletics and its legendary architect John Wooden. Giving full attention to UCLA basketball's unprecedented success and the careers of its star players John Matthew Smith provides a thoughtful analysis of societal concerns and issues surrounding the program in the 1960s and early '70s. A first-rate work."--J. Samuel Walker author of ACC Basketball: The Story of the Rivalries Traditions and Scandals of the First Two Decades of the Atlantic Coast Conference "The Sons of Westwood is the history of an institution UCLA the chronicle of a sport basketball and the biography of its greatest coach John Wooden in a time of cultural and political upheaval the 1960s and 1970s. It succeeds richly on all four fronts."--Susan Ware author of Game Set Match: Billie Jean King and the Revolution in Women's Sports "John Matthew Smith tells in a very balanced and forthright manner the inside story of John Wooden's famed UCLA basketball program and how it fit into the larger narratives of the civil rights movement the anti-Vietnam War movement and the athletic revolution. He shows how Wooden and his extraordinarily talented and gifted integrated teams helped transform college basketball from a regional pastime to a national phenomenon."--David K. Wiggins coauthor of The Unlevel Playing Field: A Documentary History of the African American Experience in Sport University of Illinois Press, Urbana and Chicago: 2013 hardcover

SMITH MARGARET SUPPLEE
American Ski Resort: Architecture Style Experience
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2013. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. One of America's most popular sports skiing isall about freedom. A lavishly illustrated exploration of the American ski resort and its evolution across time. Skiers enjoy the thrll of adventure an escape from city life and a close encounter with nature at its most rugged and majestic. And yet paradoxically the experience of skiing for most Americans is inextricably linked to architecture for our journey down the mountainside is shaped by the ski resort. In this magnificent book architectural historian Margaret Supplee Smith traces the evolution of the ski resort in North America. Brimmng with photographs of spectacular scenery intriguing buildings and colorful personalities American Ski Resort is the first book to explore the combined phenomena of skiing tourism and achitecture from a national perspective. Focusing on destination ski resorts in New England the Rocky Mountains the Far West and southern California Smith examines the architecture of recreational skiing from the 1930s to 1990 showing how small family-operated businesses evolved into the massive theme-oriented multipurpose ski establishments of today. The narrative begins with the origins of the American winter recreation industry - surprisingly in the midst of the Great Depression. She then shows how American ski resorts challenged the supremacy of the Europen Alps and explains the role that architecture played in this shift. According to Smith skiing is an archtypical American edxperience reflecting our common tendency toward swift ascent overreaching ambition and thudding downfall - followed by picking ourselves up dusting ourselves off and starting all over again. As the ski industry today faces problems of exclusivity climate change a vulnerable economy and an aging skier demographic it must itself seek new ways to start all over again - with ski resort architecture continuing to define that reinvention. Margaret Supplee Smith is Harold W. Tribble Professor of Art emerita at Wake Forest University Winston-Salem North Carolina. During her ten years of research for this book she has lectured and written widely on ski resort architecture and consulted for the city of Aspen on its modern architecture. She is coauthor of the award-winning North Carolina Women: Makng History. 198 color photos 107 black and white illustrations 1 map. University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2013 hardcover

The success of each shot depends on a diverse range of factors from the club you choose and the speed with which you swing it to your mood the weather and even the type and cut of the grass. Science plays a crucial role in most if not all of these factors and in Golf Science sports science expert Mark F. Smith investigates the cutting-edge scientific wonders that take the ball from tee to hole. Each chapter explores a different facet of the game�mind and body the swing the equipment the environment coaching with technology the practice process and the score�and is organized around a series of questions. What happens in the brain during the preshot routine Does head movement hinder swing performance Will I hit the ball farther with a longer driver Why do I lose distance into the wind What can I learn from watching my ball in flight How should practice be structured What are the key stats in golf that I need to know Each question is examined with the aid of explanatory diagrams and illustrations and the book can be used to search for particular topics or read straight through for a comprehensive overview of how golfer and equipment work together. A must-have for anyone who delights in the spirit of the game Golf Science will be enjoyed not only by professionals and coaches but also by spectators of the PGA Tour and anyone who enjoys a round of eighteen holes on the weekend. "UK-based exercise physiology researcher Mark F. Smith comfortably fits his vast knowledge of the game and its intricacies into 192 pages of diagrams photos and text. Each section details an aspect of the game including the mind and body the swing equipment and practice. Perhaps its greatest strength is that it's more informational than instructional. Smith a member of the International Editorial Board for the World Scientific Congress of Golf relays his knowledge in an unimposing manner allowing the reader to pick and choose what to apply. Valuable to players of any level." --Brendan Mohler Golf Digestix "I love Golf Science. . . . It is not light reading by any means but it is enlightening." --Shelf Awareness "An informative scientific approach to golf in a series of common questions with some surprising and helpful answers." --Bill Pennington The New York Times University of Chicago Press, Chicago and London: (2013) hardcover
