Download or read book Black Maestro written by Joe Drape and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2006-04-25 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life of Jimmy Winkfield is an exuberant epic: the seventeenth child of Kentucky sharecroppers, he was the last black jockey to win the Kentucky Derby, and survived the Ku Klux Klan, the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, and the Nazis, and died a wealthy landowner in a French chateau. Jimmy Winkfield is surely the oddest and most invisible witness to some of the greatest historical events of the 20th century. His life is one of adventure and history, of travels around the world. Winkfield, a black jockey, won the Kentucky Derby in 1901 and 1902. He was the last African American to win that race, and actually closed out an era in which black jockeys dominated the event. (The legacy had its roots in slavery, when plantation owners left the care, training and racing of horses to their slaves. In the first Kentucky Derby, in 1875, 13 of the 15 riders were African Americans. So was the winning jockey. And, over the first 28 years the Derby was run, 15 of the winning riders were African American. ) Jimmy Winkfield went from being the youngest of 17 in a family of sharecroppers, to racing for $8 a month, and eventually $1000 per race. But in 1903 Winkfield lost his third attempt, and his racing life faltered. He found himself under tremendous economic pressure–and racial pressure at the same time, from the KKK. Anxious about racial riots and protests, Winkfield accepted an offer to race in Russia, where he found refuge from the KKK and became a star again. A few years later, he became the Tsar's rider, until the Bolsheviks chased him out along with 200 of the Tsar's horses. In order to save them, Winkfield drove the horses through a nasty Eastern European winter, eating some of them along the way to stave off starvation. He arrived in France with these beloved horses, became a gentleman, married, rode and made a lot of money. Then came the Nazis, who drove him and his family back to Aitken, S.C., where he resumed a humble life as a $15 a day horse groomer. After the War he returned to France and resumed his position, farm and estate. He came for a visit to Louisville in 1961 as a guest of Sports Illustrated and, ironically, was not allowed in the door of the Brown Hotel.

Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller 'A sensation ... a rollicking tale well told' - The Times At the heart of Born to Run lies a mysterious tribe of Mexican Indians, the Tarahumara, who live quietly in canyons and are reputed to be the best distance runners in the world; in 1993, one of them, aged 57, came first in a prestigious 100-mile race wearing a toga and sandals. A small group of the world's top ultra-runners (and the awe-inspiring author) make the treacherous journey into the canyons to try to learn the tribe's secrets and then take them on over a course 50 miles long. With incredible energy and smart observation, McDougall tells this story while asking what the secrets are to being an incredible runner. Travelling to labs at Harvard, Nike, and elsewhere, he comes across an incredible cast of characters, including the woman who recently broke the world record for 100 miles and for her encore ran a 2:50 marathon in a bikini, pausing to down a beer at the 20 mile mark.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Being directed by the Jimmy Burrows, while on Friends, was like hitting the jackpot. I’m delighted that everyone can now share in his incredible insight with this book.”—JENNIFER ANISTON From the director of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, and Will & Grace comes an insightful and nostalgic behind-the-scenes memoir that’s “as difficult to put down as a Friends marathon is to turn off” (The Washington Post). Legendary sitcom director James Burrows has spent five decades making America laugh. Here readers will find never-revealed stories behind the casting of the dozens of great sitcoms he directed, as well as details as to how these memorable shows were created, how they got on the air, and how the cast and crew continued to develop and grow. Burrows also examines his own challenges, career victories, and defeats, and provides advice for aspiring directors, writers, and actors. All this from the man who helped launch the careers of Ted Danson, Kelsey Grammer, Woody Harrelson, Jennifer Aniston, Debra Messing, and Melissa McCarthy, to name a few. Burrows talks fondly about the inspiration he found during his childhood and young adult years, including his father, legendary playwright and Broadway director Abe Burrows. From there he goes on to explain his rigorous work ethic, forged in his early years in theater, where he did everything from stage managing to building sets to, finally, directing. Transitioning to television, Burrows locked into a coveted job with The Mary Tyler Moore Show, where he first observed and then started to apply his craft. Directing most of the episodes of Taxi came next, where he worked closely with writers/producers Glen and Les Charles. The three formed a remarkable creative partnership that helped Burrows achieve his much sought-after goal of ownership and agency over a project, which came with the creating and directing of the seminal and beloved hit Cheers. Burrows has directed more than seventy-five pilots that have gone to series and over a thousand episodes, more than any other director in history. Directed by James Burrows is a heart-and-soul master class in sitcom, revealing what it truly takes to get a laugh.

Some speak in whispers of the return of the Aldrain, a race of widely feared, cruel yet beautiful demons. Now Gil and two old comrades are all that stand in the way of a prophecy whose fulfillment will drown an entire world in blood. But with heroes like these, the cure is likely to be worse than the disease.
Book Synopsis Video Games Around the World by : Mark J. P. Wolf
Download or read book Video Games Around the World written by Mark J. P. Wolf and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty-nine essays explore the vast diversity of video game history and culture across all the world's continents. Video games have become a global industry, and their history spans dozens of national industries where foreign imports compete with domestic productions, legitimate industry contends with piracy, and national identity faces the global marketplace. This volume describes video game history and culture across every continent, with essays covering areas as disparate and far-flung as Argentina and Thailand, Hungary and Indonesia, Iran and Ireland. Most of the essays are written by natives of the countries they discuss, many of them game designers and founders of game companies, offering distinctively firsthand perspectives. Some of these national histories appear for the first time in English, and some for the first time in any language. Readers will learn, for example, about the rapid growth of mobile games in Africa; how a meat-packing company held the rights to import the Atari VCS 2600 into Mexico; and how the Indonesian MMORPG Nusantara Online reflects that country's cultural history and folklore. Every country or region's unique conditions provide the context that shapes its national industry; for example, the long history of computer science in the United Kingdom and Scandinavia, the problems of piracy in China, the PC Bangs of South Korea, or the Dutch industry's emphasis on serious games. As these essays demonstrate, local innovation and diversification thrive alongside productions and corporations with global aspirations.
