Book excerpt: Waverley Traylor grew up knowing little about his fathers life or what made him tick. Yet like life itself, time breeds change. After his father was unable to obtain the Purple Heart medal for his service in World War II, Traylor embarked on a fascinating journey to not only prove his fathers qualifications, but also to learn more about his fathers true identity. Legacy of My Father is the result of years of research by Traylor, who visited family and comrades around the nation, extensively read about World War II battles, and sorted through thousands of photographs, newspapers, and letters in order to accurately share his fathers compelling life story. Presented in three distinct periods, this biography describes his fathers childhood growing up in pre- and post-Depression America, where he became a well-adjusted youth with strong Christian values. Later, his father was drafted into the US Marines and sent to fight in one of the bloodiest battles in the history of the Corps; Traylor shares heartbreaking details how these events forever changed his fathers post war life. This moving biography shares the intriguing story of a courageous man haunted by war until his last days on Earth and honors the unique relationship he shared only with his son.

Book Synopsis The Softball Game by : John L. Kinsler
Download or read book The Softball Game written by John L. Kinsler and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10-31 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 20 million men and women in this country play softball. On the surface, The Softball Game is about men and their need for battles. Aggression is as coded in our DNA as is our need to reproduce. It is a fun game with laughs recalled from years playing softball. The old storyteller is reluctant to do battle. He tells the confrontation in the first person singular, episode by episode. The game is a tribal struggle played by redneck, bad guys and middle class, semi-affluent, anti-heroes. Coming to the rescue is Beth - - a woman! Beth reduces the male struggle to a farce. The driving timbre is the storyteller’s experiences with three females whose lives are indirectly, obliquely, and directly affected by his wars at softball. The Softball Game is about these women. Phaedra literally hands the young warrior his first sexual experience. Entering the “man world” still a child, he meets Bridgette his playtoy. She is a transition to adulthood and the paragon of summer love. Playing at sex with adult bodies and a child’s maturity, they both lose. Then comes Beth. If you read one chapter, it should be 11. There has never been a hero like her.

Book Synopsis All Joy and No Fun by : Jennifer Senior
Download or read book All Joy and No Fun written by Jennifer Senior and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-01-28 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of books have examined the effects of parents on their children. In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior now asks: what are the effects of children on their parents? In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior tries to tackle this question, isolating and analyzing the many ways in which children reshape their parents' lives, whether it's their marriages, their jobs, their habits, their hobbies, their friendships, or their internal senses of self. She argues that changes in the last half century have radically altered the roles of today's mothers and fathers, making their mandates at once more complex and far less clear. Recruiting from a wide variety of sources—in history, sociology, economics, psychology, philosophy, and anthropology—she dissects both the timeless strains of parenting and the ones that are brand new, and then brings her research to life in the homes of ordinary parents around the country. The result is an unforgettable series of family portraits, starting with parents of young children and progressing to parents of teens. Through lively and accessible storytelling, Senior follows these mothers and fathers as they wrestle with some of parenthood's deepest vexations—and luxuriate in some of its finest rewards. Meticulously researched yet imbued with emotional intelligence, All Joy and No Fun makes us reconsider some of our culture's most basic beliefs about parenthood, all while illuminating the profound ways children deepen and add purpose to our lives. By focusing on parenthood, rather than parenting, the book is original and essential reading for mothers and fathers of today—and tomorrow.
