Book excerpt: Hal Chase is considered by many to be one of the best first basemen ever to play the game of baseball. He was able to make the routine look spectacular, the spectacular look routine. But Chase will never have his plaque in Cooperstown because he has gone down in history as the biggest crook in baseball. Chase was repeatedly accused of throwing games, bribing players, betting against his own team, and various other crimes, yet with his relaxed nature he always managed to get off the hook for his misdeeds by working his charm. His major league career lasted from 1905 to 1919, and by the mid-1930s he was a destitute alcoholic living off friends. The last fifteen years of Chase's life saw him hospitalized repeatedly for a variety of ailments, living off a sister and brother-in-law who loathed him. This work traces the turbulent life and times of Hal Chase from his humble beginnings to his sad end.

Book excerpt: FROM THE SLUMS OF CHICAGO TO HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLDDavy Jones is a courageous young black man growing up in the ghetto. His is a world of drugs, violence, and poverty. He loses his mother early in his life, and at the age of fifteen he watches helplessly as his father dies from an overdose. Throughout the years, he witnesses the devastating effect of drugs on friends and their families, and the high cost of addiction. Despite the many hurdles and hardships in his life, Jones has three things in his corner: the love of God, the love of his grandmother, and the love of a good woman. With a determination that comes from deep within-and Joe, his good-hearted trainer-he vows to finish high school and reach his ultimate goal: to become the heavyweight champion of the world.

Book excerpt: It is August in Cairns, North Queensland, the tropical Winter and tourist season. Andrew Collins a 14 year old local lad and navy cadet has begun a SCUBA diving course, along with his older sister Carmen. Also on the course is Muriel who is the same age and also a navy cadet. Andrew has fallen in love with her and is very anxious to impress her, but lacks experience with girls. But on his very first dive in the open sea Andrew discovers that he is terrified; afraid of all the dangerous creates that inhabit the Coral Sea, and also scared of having to do training and tests such as removing his face mask under water. Pride battles with panic. Despising himself for being a coward who is too afraid to admit he is scared, Andrew keeps on trying. As he struggles with the challenges of diving Andrew also stumbles on an old family puzzle: What happened to his own grandfather, also a diver? Bert Collins was lost at sea many years before, but was he? Andrew and Carmen find themselves drawn into a deadly web of lies and danger as they try to find out the truth. Andrew finds himself confronted by the biggest challenges of his young life. At the same time as he struggles to keep his self respect, and while he agonizes over the ups and downs of his love life, he is also caught in a situation requiring him to make cruel choices which threaten to harm himself, his own family, and others that he loves. Before the truth is revealed Andrew has to battle with all his worst nightmares come true. Davy Joness Locker is an adventure to be enjoyed by anyone who was, or is, a Navy Cadet, or who likes stories about the sea. It is suitable for teenagers.
