Book Synopsis The Field House by : Robin Clifford Wood
Download or read book The Field House written by Robin Clifford Wood and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born of illustrious New England stock, Rachel Field was a National Book Award–winning novelist, a Newbery Medal–winning children’s writer, a poet, playwright, and rising Hollywood success in the early twentieth century. Her light was abruptly extinguished at the age of forty-seven, when she died at the pinnacle of her personal happiness and professional acclaim. Fifty years later, Robin Clifford Wood stepped onto the sagging floorboards of Rachel’s long-neglected home on the rugged shores of an island in Maine and began dredging up Rachel’s history. She was determined to answer the questions that filled the house’s every crevice: Who was this vibrant, talented artist whose very name entrances those who still remember her work? Why is that work—so richly remunerated and widely celebrated in her lifetime—so largely forgotten today? The journey into Rachel’s world took Wood further than she ever dreamed possible, unveiling a life fraught with challenge, and buried by tragedy, and yet incandescent with joy. The Field House is a book about beauty—beauty in Maine island landscapes, in friendship, love, and heartbreak; beauty hidden beneath a woman’s woefully unbeautiful exterior; beauty in a rare, delightful spirit that still whispers from the past. Just listen.

Download or read book House of Champions written by Kevin Cook and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2022-11-08 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories and accounts of Kentucky basketball's players, iconic coaches, and epic games have been told and retold, but lesser known are the stories of the arenas and venues that have been home to the Wildcats—buildings that have witnessed the sights, sounds, and shared spirit of the Big Blue Nation for over a century. In House of Champions: The Story of Kentucky Basketball's Home Courts, author Kevin Cook combines archival research and numerous interviews with players and coaches to reveal the rich history and colorful details of the structures that have hosted University of Kentucky basketball. A number of fascinating backstories are uncovered, including the excitement of Alumni Gym's opening night in 1925, the problematic acquisition of Black community land for the building of Memorial Coliseum, and the painstaking inscription of nearly ten thousand names of Kentucky's World War II and Korean War heroes to be displayed along the Coliseum's pedestrian ramps. The account concludes with a compelling overview of the development of historic Rupp Arena: its inner workings, the prominent figures involved, and how the initial conversation to build it began over a slice of Jerry's pie in 1968. This insightful and entertaining history reveals how the impact of sporting facilities extends far beyond game night as they continue to shape and influence the social, economic, and political landscapes of Lexington and central Kentucky.
Book Synopsis Current Perspectives on the Archaeology of African Slavery in Latin America by : Pedro Paulo A. Funari
Download or read book Current Perspectives on the Archaeology of African Slavery in Latin America written by Pedro Paulo A. Funari and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume aims at exploring a most relevant but somewhat neglected subject in archaeological studies, especially within Latin America: maroons and runaway settlements. Scholarship on runaways is well established and prolific in ethnology, anthropology and history, but it is still in its infancy in archaeology. A small body of archaeological literature on maroons exists for other regions, but no single volume discusses the subject in depth, including diverse eras and geographical areas within Latin American contexts. Thus, a central aim of the volume is to gather together some of the most active, Latin American maroon archaeologists in a single volume. This volume will thus become an important reference book on the subject and will also foster further archaeology research on maroon settlements. The introduction and comments by senior scholars provide a wide-ranging and comprehensive analysis of runaway archaeology that will help to indicate the global importance of this research.
Book Synopsis A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse by : J Lewis Johnson
Download or read book A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse written by J Lewis Johnson and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse By: J Lewis Johnson A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse is historical fiction depicting the Indiana high school basketball championships of 1955. It chronicles the season beginning with the end of the 1954 state championship game which itself was depicted in the movie Hoosiers. The story begins when that game ends and could be seen as a sequel to Hoosiers. A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse encompasses the history of Indiana high school boys’ basketball, the politics of the sport, and the segregation in Indiana and America at that time. A Dark Night in the Fieldhouse occurs after Brown vs Board of Education passed through the Supreme Court outlawing segregation in education in America. While the story’s characters are purely fictional, some of the real players involved in the historic season went on to become prominent figures in the evolution of basketball both at the college and professional level. These players were vital to the development of basketball which has made the NBA so popular today and propelled basketball to the status of one of the most popular sports in the world.

Download or read book Coming of Age written by David Goulet and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-03-30 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming of age is difficult at any time but for young men in the late 60s it was particularly stressful. The military draft was going to be implemented by President Nixon while the Vietnam War raged on. The country had been in turmoil the past few years with events occurring that impacted the direction the country, and its youth, would take. Dan Horning had been a star athlete in high school and hoped for an athletic scholarship to college. He was battling a strained relationship with his father, who wanted him to join the military, while he worked in a foundry. But a chance meeting at a local college would soon set him on a new path. Diane Rosen knew she wanted to attend the University of Miami since she was a little girl. She was bright, determined and focused. Just the opposite of Dan who would transfer to the same school. The two would meet by accident under less than ideal circumstances. Dan hoped to get to know Diane after their encounter but she felt very differently about him. When a series of events occurred at the university, out of Dans control, that made playing basketball impossible, he changed his major, much to the frustration of his father, and his college career took off. Success in school didnt help Dan at home but things were changing with Diane. But things still bothered Dan so he took up surfing and bought a motorcycle to replace the basketball fiasco. A serious medical event would happen affecting both Dan and Diane, as they neared graduation, and would change their lives forever. Interspersed with numerous current events of that tumultuous era, Coming of Age tells the story of two college students trying to find their way, and the challenges they faced individually, and together, wanting to succeed. But tragedy would ultimately strike and one of them would never be the same.
