Download or read book By Chance written by Rick Shortle and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-01-22 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'His first book 'Full Circle' was one of those reads you could not put down once you'd started it. Rick related stories and events through his life from being a cheeky-chappy looking for sponsors, dare-devil antics and serious scrapes on speedway bikes to FF1600's and beyond - into saloon cars. This book in contrast, details the racing career itself focussing inevitably on the diverse range of cars, serious competitive drivers of character and fame, Martin Down, a life long friend and car designer, as well as the race engineers and sponsors. It is a very easy read full of surprises and ... did I mention Tom Cruise?' - 'Russell Houchin, Sponsor and Friend

Download or read book Steaming In written by Colin Ward and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colin Ward spent much of the 1970s and 1980s on the terraces of football grounds around the country, and following England across the continent. It was a time when passionate support of your team did not mean wearing the team shirt and subscribing to your club's TV station. Instead, it often meant having to defend your part of the stadium against attacks from opposition fans, confrontations with the police, and some decidedly hair-raising encounters. Although, post-Hillsborough, this seems like a vanished era, the world of the football hooligan still has the power to fascinate. No one has captured the atmosphere with the same authenticity as Ward, who reveals the truth behind the easy headlines: the camaraderie, the unexpected friendships between rival groups, the characters who attained near mythical status. Controversial, provocative and above all brilliantly told, Steaming Intakes the reader right to the heart of the action.

Download or read book Merger written by William Westerman and published by Melbourne Books. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, the 113-year-old Fitzroy Football Club played its final game in the AFL. Financial pressures brought about by the steady professionalisation of the AFL respected neither the worth of the club's history nor the passion of its fans. Out of time and money, on 4 July 1996 Fitzroy was forced into a merger with the Brisbane Bears - creating the League's first, and thus far only, merged club. MERGER tells the story of that fateful year, from boardroom drama and intrigue to the wind and mud of the Whitten Oval, capturing the profound tragedy of Fitzroy's doomed plight. 'The demise of Fitzroy is a deep wound rather than a scar. A tear in the fabric of the game that will never truly repair.' - from the Foreword by Gerard Whateley

Download or read book Today We Die a Little written by Richard Askwith and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We are different, in essence, from other men. If you want to enjoy something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon." -- Emil Zápek For a decade after the Second World War, Emil Zápek -- "the Czech locomotive" -- redefined the sport of distance running, pushing back the frontiers of what was considered possible. He won five Olympic medals, set eighteen world records, and went undefeated in the 10,000-metre race for six years. His dominance has never been equaled. In the darkest days of the Cold War, he stood for a spirit of generous friendship that transcended nationality and politics. Zápek was an energetic supporter of the Prague Spring in 1968, championing "socialism with a human face" in Czechoslovakia. But for this he paid a high price. After the uprising was crushed by Soviet tanks, the hardline Communists had their revenge. Zápek was expelled from the army, stripped of his role in national sport, and condemned to years of hard and degrading manual labor. Based on extensive research in the Czech Republic, interviews with people across the world who knew him, and unprecedented cooperation from his widow, fellow Olympian Dana Zápkovájournalist Richard Askwith's book breathes new life into the man and the myth, uncovering a glorious age of athletics and an epoch-defining time in world history.
Download or read book A Family Divided written by Dick Parsons and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Versailles Treaty which brought peace after the Great War (1914-18) was viewed by Adolf Hitler as humiliating and unjust, leading to his determination to make Germany great again and the Reich judenfrie (rid of the Jews). When he becomes Fhrer in 1934, his policies affect the families of two German brothers in evermore contrasting ways. Klaus the younger, is married to a Jew and their children a boy and a girl, are therefore Jewish. His brother Wolfgangs wife like him, is an Aryan and to Hitler and the Nazis, their two blond blue-eyed sons are archetypal German boys to be nurtured by the Hitler Youth to become enthusiastic and loyal Nazis. Meanwhile the Jews and Klaus family suffer increasing persecution, with the threat of imprisonment in concentration camps and extermination at the hands of the S.S. The two branches of the family become separated by Hitlers anti-Semitism and the Uncles, Aunts and the four cousins suffer contrasting fates as the events of WW2 unfold. Much research by author Dick Parsons has enabled him to portray this terrible period in European history through the lives of this family of two brothers.
