Berton, Adriano
Scusa New York, vado di corsa
Questa è una favola. È la favola di un uomo che corona il suo sogno concludendo la Maratona competitiva di New York. È il 5 agosto del 1976, quando Adriano Berton e suo padre, su uno scooter, vengono travolti da un'auto impazzita; il papà perde la vita e ad Adriano si spezza la gamba sinistra, completamente. Giunto all'ospedale la soluzione più lineare pare quella dell'amputazione, ma il chirurgo che lo accoglie lo guarda negli occhi - è un bimbo di nove anni - e non se la sente. Contro tutti decide di "tentare" di riattaccargliela; è la prima volta che un intervento del genere viene sperimentato in Italia. L'operazione riesce e la vita di Adriano cambia. "Inoltrandomi nell'inferno, mi sono trovato in paradiso", afferma a distanza di tempo l'autore. Soltanto attraverso quel dolore, infatti, dice di aver potuto raggiungere la serenità, la tranquillità d'animo di chi sa accogliere gli eventi come necessari, e da qualunque vicenda riesce a trarre il meglio e a crescere di un passo. Grazie a quel drammatico giorno, infatti, e dalla forza che ne ha tratto, è riuscito a superare tutte le difficoltà a cui la vita l'ha messo di fronte, e ora, raccontando di sé e del suo progetto di riscatto attraverso lo sport, urla al mondo intero che ce la si può fare, che ce la si deve fare, qualunque cosa succeda e a qualsiasi costo.

Bertotti Giovanni
Giuseppe Perrucchetti. Il generale fondatore degli alpini che non fu mai un alpino
br. A cent'anni dalla morte avvenuta a Cuorgné si rievoca la figura del generale Giuseppe Perrucchetti, ideatore e fondatore del Corpo degli Alpini. Un personaggio importante, vissuto nella seconda metà dell'Ottocento, distintosi sotto vari aspetti: fervente patriota, medaglia d'argento al valore nella battaglia di Custoza, scienziato specialista in topografia applicata all'arte militare, fine stratega membro della Commissione per la Difesa dello Stato, appassionato alpinista membro del Consiglio Direttivo del Club Alpino Italiano ove ha ricoperto anche la carica di vice presidente. Storico e antropologo delle popolazioni di montagna, lucido e fecondo giornalista su periodici e quotidiani di diffusione nazionale, senatore molto apprezzato per la serenità e imparzialità di giudizio. A partire dal 1888 ha trascorso con la moglie parte del suo tempo a Cuorgné, interessandosi dei problemi cittadini e degli eventi di quella guerra che proprio in quegli anni esaltava il valore insostituibile degli alpini da lui fortemente voluti.

La Véritable Duchesse de Windsor de Bertrand Meyer-Stabley
PARIS, Pygmalion (31 janvier 2002) - In-8, 24 x 15,4 x 2,4 cm - Broché - Couverture illustrée - illustrations NB Hors texte - 365 pages - bon exemplaire - envoi rapide et soigné Langue : Français ISBN-10: Dimensions du produit: Moyenne des commentaires client : Broché – 31 janvier 2002 Quatrième de couverture: Raison du cœur contre raison d'Etat. Pour l'amour de Wallis Simpson, future duchesse de Windsor, Edward VIII, roi d'Angleterre, renonce au trône. Ni la famille royale ni l'Eglise d'Angleterre ne peuvent, en effet, tolérer le mariage de leur souverain avec une roturière américaine, deux fois divorcée. Edward abdique le 10 décembre 1936, se marie quelques mois plus tard et commence un long exil avec celle que son cœur a choisie. Une longue vie errante aussi, de palaces somptueux en villégiatures dorées. Car Wallis aime le luxe, les fêtes et les toilettes. Elle est élégante, raffinée, pleine d'humour, perfectionniste et garde à toute heure le sourire aux lèvres. « On n'est jamais assez mince ni assez riche », dit-elle. Comme elle aime recevoir, chacune de ses réceptions laisse un souvenir émerveillé à ses invités. Rarement personnage fut aussi vilipendé. Arriviste ? Cupide ? Méchante ? On a caricaturé son goût des bijoux, ses excentricités, ses caprices en oubliant trop souvent qu'elle était intelligente, lucide et passionnée. En nous racontant son destin exceptionnel, Bertrand Meyer-Stabley révèle ici une personnalité aussi secrète que subtile et nous plonge dans une histoire d'amour hors du commun qui défraya en son temps la chronique.
