Book Synopsis The Hoosier Game by : James Leroy Brunnemer

Book excerpt: "THE HOOSIER GAME" On Friday, March 16, 1894 members of the YMCA at Lafayette, Indiana, traveled to nearby Crawfordsville to challenge their counterparts in a new game invented two years earlier by Dr. James Naismith. He called it "basket-ball". It was the first contest played outside the state of Massachusetts. Avoiding the pot-bellied stove in the middle of the gymnasium floor, the teams engaged in a spirited competition. The Crawfordsville Y won, 45-21. Hoosier Hysteria was born. The impact of the game of basketball on the culture of Indiana has been profound, affecting the customs, social institutions, and the attitudes and behaviors of the people of this uniquely Midwestern state. "The Hoosier Game" is a tale of two boys--best friends Josh and Jake--whose lives intertwine through a shared allegiance to and love for the game of basketball in the 1950s and 1960s. Through meticulous research and a nearly photographic recall of people and events, the author provides a close-up view of an event once considered to be the premier high school athletic event in America--the Indiana State basketball tournament. The IHSAA's winner-take-all format would become nationally recognized for its scope and drama. The tournament was acknowledged by observers--even beyond Hoosier borders--as the greatest high school sports attraction in the world. In its infancy basketball provided inexpensive entertainment for the masses and became a source of community pride in small Hoosier settlements. Spirited rivalries developed among neighboring villages. Hoosier farmers' social calendars in the fall and winter months came to revolve around two events: church services on Sunday and the boys' high school game on Friday nights. But the book is about more than basketball. The author, who lived through the age, captures in vivid detail significant historical and cultural changes of that era--including the repatriation of World War II veterans seeking the American Dream; the Cold War that brought the U.S. and Russia to the brink of another worldwide conflagration; the internecine struggle for civil rights; the transformation of a country torn asunder during the war in Vietnam; as well as numerous other social developments in a generation from post-war America through today. Garry Donna, a member of the Indiana High School Basketball Hall of Fame, commented, "As publisher of "Hoosier Basketball Magazine" for 43 years I have read many books about basketball in general and, specifically, about high school basketball in Indiana. None has captured the true feeling and spirit of the game's 'golden years', of the 1950s and 1960s like Jim Brunnemer's historical fiction. The insightful, behind-the-scenes look at practices, player relationships, and the emotional reactions and total involvement of the townspeople is absolutely riveting--especially the surprise ending. For basketball fans everywhere 'The Hoosier Game' qualifies as an exhilarating literary experience. Don't miss it." Retired coach and also a member of the Hall of Fame, Sam Alford, added, "'The Hoosier Game' achieves with accuracy and thoroughness one of the most interesting and popular periods in Indiana basketball history. I certainly enjoyed my trip down memory lane and recommend to every fan of Indiana basketball to read and enjoy, as much as I did, 'The Hoosier Game'." Bill Benner, author, award-winning sportswriter for the 'Indianapolis Star', and Senior Associate Commissioner for the NCAA-D1 Horizon League, said succinctly, "Short version: I love the book! Only a true Hoosier such as Jim Brunnemer could spin this uniquely Hoosier basketball tale so well." Order your copy now, and relive those days when high school basketball was unrivaled in its dominion over the inhabitants of the state of Indiana.

Download or read book The Milan Miracle written by Bill Riley and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will lightning ever strike twice? Can David beat Goliath a second time? These questions haunt everyone in the small town of Milan, Indiana, whose basketball team inspired Hoosiers, the greatest underdog sports movie ever made. From a town of just 1,816 residents, the team remains forever an underdog, but one with a storied past that has them eternally frozen in their 1954 moment of glory. Every ten years or so, Milan has a winning season, but for the most part, they only manage a win or two each year. And still, perhaps because it's the only option for Milan, the town believes that the Indians can rise again. Bill Riley follows the modern day Indians for a season and explores how the Milan myth still permeates the town, the residents, and their high level of expectations of the team. Riley deftly captures the camaraderie between the players and their coach and their school pride in being Indians. In the end, there are few wins or causes for celebration—there is only the little town where basketball is king and nearly the whole town shows up to watch each game. The legend of Milan and Hoosiers is both a blessing and a curse.

The shop closed early that day, but it has been churning out plenty of the Chicago’s most delectable pies ever since. Specializing in hand-made, artisanal pies that only use locally sourced and in-season ingredients, Hoosier Mama Pie Company has become a local favorite and a national destination gaining praise from Bon Appetit, the Food Network, and Food & Wine as one of the top pie shops in the country. Now, The Hoosier Mama Book of Pie delivers all the sumptuous secrets of buttery crusts, fruity fillings, creams and custards, chess pies, over-the-top pies, and even the stout and hearty savory pie. The practically oriented, easy-going, and accessible style of this book will help bakers both new and old make the perfect pie for every occasion. On top of all of this, The Hoosier Mama Book of Pie also includes tips on technique, fascinating historical anecdotes, and an emphasis on special seasonal recipes, as well as quiches, hand pies, and scones. This beautifully photographed and designed book has the classic retro feel of the mid-20th century golden age of pie, and all the warmth and personality of the Hoosier Mama Pie Co.’s cozy Chicago storefront. The focus on using local produce and employing the farm-to-table philosophy gives the book a contemporary twist, helping home bakers make the freshest, most delicious pies imaginable. Now readers can take a little piece of the Hoosier Mama Pie Company anywhere they go. Praise for the Hoosier Mama Book of Pie “Paula Haney . . . just put out a massive cookbook with her recipes . . . and it’s something very special. The almost-400-page tome details Hoosier Mama’s opening and development, as well as Haney’s recipes for everything from crust to biscuits to custard fillings. The photos make everything look delicious and, to the above-average baker, everything seems relatively easy to execute.” —Marah Eakin, The AV Club “Everything you could possibly want to know about proper pie making is covered . . . No facet of the process is too humble for discussion; the merits of salt in the crust is given as much thought as the best way to combine butter and flour. If you’ve ever wanted to learn the right way to crimp a pie, or how to make lattice work actually work, this is the book for you.” —Serious Eats, naming Hoosier Mama a top dessert cookbook of 2013
