Book Synopsis Land of 10,000 Aches by : Zeke Fuhrman
Download or read book Land of 10,000 Aches written by Zeke Fuhrman and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professional sports returned to Minnesota in 1961, a year after one of the most successful pro sports franchises left Minneapolis for Los Angeles in 1960. Since then, a history of last-second losses, historically bad teams, draft busts, missed calls, terrible trades, disappointing playoff runs, blown leads, under-qualified front office staff and coaches and untimely injuries. Yet, this fan base stays loyal. For some reason. 'Land of 10,000 Aches' goes deeper into the most heart-breaking, gut-wrenching, soul-crushing, even-I-could-make-that-field-goal moments in Minnesota sports history with first-hand accounts from players, coaches and fans. Everybody remembers where they were for the good things: the Minneapolis Miracle, Kirby Puckett's Game Six home run. But were you face down in disbelief when Garrett Hartley kicked the Saints to the Super Bowl? Or forced into an emotional fetal position watching the Eagles hang 38 unanswered points on the NFL's best defense? Until names like Sal Bando, Ron Schock, Claude Osteen, Ed Thorp, Gordie Peterkin and Sergei Krivokrasov make your stomach turn, you have a long drop into the doldrums of Minnesota melancholy. This book is your guide down.

Book Synopsis The Twins Platoon by : Christy W. Sauro
Download or read book The Twins Platoon written by Christy W. Sauro and published by Quarto Publishing Group USA. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A US Marine veteran recounts the experiences of his platoon in the Vietnam War following their enlistment at a Minnesota Twins baseball game. In the evening of June 28, 1967, 150 young Americans were sworn into the Marine Corps as part of the pre-game ceremonies of a Minnesota Twins baseball game. Before the end of the fourth inning these volunteers were being hustled on to buses, on their way to boot camp. It was a journey that would take them from a boyhood of baseball in the American heartland to manhood on the killing fields of Vietnam. Christy Sauro was one of the Twins Platoon, and in this book, he tells what it was like—from the pomp and ceremony of induction to the all-too-real initiation by fire that would shortly follow. In mere months, he and most of the Twins Platoon were on the ground in Vietnam and promptly faced with some of the toughest fighting of the war: the Siege of Khe Sanh and the Tet Offensive, including the brutal Battle for Hue. From baseball to boot camp to brutal combat, his is a firsthand story of American life being lived at the limits—and changed forever. Praise for The Twins Platoon “[Sauro’s] jarring memoir takes you to some of the craziest fighting in the war. . . . The tales of Marines falling to the bullets and artillery of the enemy are truly heartbreaking.” —Military Book Club “Sauro’s modest study of 150 men from Minnesota who enlisted in 1967 adds respectably to the literature of the Vietnam War. . . . Based on extensive interviews with a cross section of the surviving veterans, the book makes rather grim reading. But then, it’s about young Americans in a rather grim war.” —Booklist “The Twins Platoon is a remarkable achievement, and Christy W. Sauro Jr. is to be commended for the single-mindedness and determination that enabled him to write it.” —Leatherneck Magazine
