Download or read book Lofty written by Matt Clough and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the Telegraph Sports Book Awards Biography of the Year. Nat Lofthouse is a name that rings through the annals of English football history like few others. He was a pivotal figure in one of the true golden ages of the beautiful game, ending his career as the leading goal scorer for both his club and his country, with a reputation as one of the game's true greats. His retirement coincided almost exactly with the abolition of the maximum wage, and ensured that his name would forever be identified with a time before money flooded the game and changed it inexorably. Lofty explores not only Lofthouse's life and career in detail never done before, but also delves into his personality and motivation through various key points of his life. Matt Clough uses interviews with those who knew him best and played alongside him, extensive research into newspaper archives and, of course, the words of the man himself to breathe life into one of football's most legendary figures.
Download or read book Wild Elephant Adventures with Lofty written by Harry Rivers and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-09-13 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The day was hot, the air was still and dust devils danced across the bush as Lofty waited in the shade at the edge of the forest, sometimes lifting his great trunk to test the air for scent. Suddenly there it was, the smell of humans and the guns they carried; he knew the poachers were not far away.” “Suddenly and shockingly, there was an explosion of water and a huge crocodile leapt out of the shallows and fastened its jaws onto a young elephant’s leg, dragging him back into the water.” “Raising his trunk to its full extent, Lofty caught the faint but distinctive smell that came from burning grass and trees, and knew that this was the start of a bush fire, always a great danger to animals caught in its path.” Travel the bush tracks and forests of Africa with Lofty the elephant and experience the sights and sounds of wild Africa. See through the eyes of an elephant, the dangers and challenges faced by him and his herd as they follow their ancient migration routes across this vast continent.

Download or read book Lofty Tales written by William Borland and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William C. Borland started his adulthood hiking up all forty-six peaks of the Adirondack Mountains. Before long, the more adventurous individuals in his group began to hike the high points of Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Then, they began talking about how to hike the 2,160-mile-long Georgia-to-Maine Appalachian Trail. After reading Seven Summits by Frank Wells and Dick Bass, who detailed how they climbed the highest mountain on each continent, Borland was inspired to set his sights even higher. Suddenly, it seemed possible for a mere mortal without superhuman climbing strength or skills to scale the highest mountains, and he decided to climb Mount McKinley (now known as Denali) in Alaska. From there, he began mountaineering and riding his bicycle on all seven continents.
Download or read book Aspires to Lofty Heights written by Ross McCallum Jones and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-02-29 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of how God took hold of an ordinary and 'lost' adolescent, redeemed him, and transformed him by the power of the Holy Spirit. Called into ministry as a Bible translator in West Africa, he analyzed and wrote the grammar of six languages and then translated the Scriptures and compiled dictionaries in all six of them. This adventurous life was lived in an Islamic context where voodoo persists, including the worship of spirits, demon possession, black magic, curses and taboos. These are described in detailed stories which will challenge your world-view. There were many hindrances to the work from Islam, communism, tropical diseases, atrocious roads, a spiritual attack resulting in complete paralysis, and his wife's devastating struggle with rheumatoid arthritis. The story documents his perseverance and desire to reach these unevangelised people groups with the good news of the Lord Jesus Christ. Over the decades, thousands of Boko people have been saved and given a new purpose in life. In addition, their lives have been improved through literacy, music, medical help, sustainable agricultural programs and support for students.
