Download or read book Little Mack Joseph B McCullagh of the St Louis Globe democrat written by Charles C. Clayton and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epitomizing the American mystique, McCullagh (or Mack as he was popularly known) was the self-made man whose name became a legend in his profession. An Irish immigrant at the age of 11, a printer, reporter, and roving correspondent, McCullagh returned to St. Louis after the Civil War, where he had worked briefly when he was 16. From this point to the end of his life in l896—a thirty-year period which forms the bulk of Mr. Clayton’s story—St. Louis was the primary stage on which his role as editor of the Globe-Democrat unfolded. St. Louis was a crossroads through which went an unending movement of men on their way West, a bustling and burgeoning city on the eve of the American century. To this city and to the problems mirrored in its growth, McCullagh dedicated his years and his prodigious talents, provoking men to speak, sending his staff of interviewers everywhere, and heaping his abrasive prose on men and issues. This spirited yet humorous account of “Little Mack” will appeal to all readers for its portrayal of an unforgettable man in one of our great cities in the stirring and formative years of the nation.

Download or read book Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination written by Thomas A. Bogar and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-11-04 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 14, 1865. A famous actor pulls a trigger in the presidential balcony, leaps to the stage and escapes, as the president lies fatally wounded. In the panic that follows, forty-six terrified people scatter in and around Ford’s Theater as soldiers take up stations by the doors and the audience surges into the streets chanting, “Burn the place down!” This is the untold story of Lincoln’s assassination: the forty-six stage hands, actors, and theater workers on hand for the bewildering events in the theater that night, and what each of them witnessed in the chaos-streaked hours before John Wilkes Booth was discovered to be the culprit. In Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination, historian Thomas A. Bogar delves into previously unpublished sources to tell the story of Lincoln’s assassination from behind the curtain, and the tale is shocking. Police rounded up and arrested dozens of innocent people, wasting time that allowed the real culprit to get further away. Some closely connected to John Wilkes Booth were not even questioned, while innocent witnesses were relentlessly pursued. Booth was more connected with the production than you might have known—learn how he knew each member of the cast and crew, which was a hotbed of secessionist resentment. Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination also tells the story of what happened to each of these witnesses to history, after the investigation was over—how each one lived their lives after seeing one of America’s greatest presidents shot dead without warning. Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination is an exquisitely detailed look at this famous event from an entirely new angle. It is must reading for anyone fascinated with the saga of Lincoln’s life and the Civil War era.
Download or read book Ken Williams written by Dave Heller and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps familiar today as an answer to sports trivia questions, Ken Williams (1890-1959) was once a celebrity who helped bring about a new kind of power baseball in the 1920s. One of the great sluggers of his era (and of all time), he beat Babe Ruth for the home run title in 1922, and became the first to hit 30 home runs and steal 30 bases in a season that year. Later recognized for his accomplishments, he was considered for but not inducted into the Hall of Fame. This first-ever biography of Williams covers his life and career, from his small town upbringing, to his unlikely foray into pro baseball, to his retirement years, when he served as a police officer and ran a pool hall in his hometown.

In its second edition, this ground-breaking study provides the known details for 150 years of game-related deaths, identifies contributing factors and discusses resulting changes to game rules, protective equipment, crowd control and stadium structures and grounds. Topics covered include pitched and batted-ball fatalities, weather and field condition accidents, structural failures, fatalities from violent or risky behavior and deaths from natural causes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Jesse James," said Carl Sandburg, "is the only American bandit who is classical, who is to this country what Robin Hood or Dick Turpin is to England, whose exploits are so close to the mythical and apocryphal." For this definitive study no significant source of information concerning Jesse James and his brother Frank has been neglected, and from it emerges resolution of the debated point: "Were the Jameses common criminals or gallant Robin Hoods?"
