Book excerpt: Murphy's Mission is a rollercoaster ride through the life story of a journeyman, football manager, legend, and self-styled bard of the beautiful game. From a career with 15 different clubs from the 1970s to the early 2000s, Colin Murphy's biography is crammed full of dressing room high jinks, boardroom bust-ups, rescue missions, and scouting for non-league gems. Described by John Inverdale as 'one of my favourite people in sport ever', Murph was called The Saviour (Lincoln City), The Unsung Hero (Hull City), and The Mad Man (Southend United). As national coach of Vietnam he was hero-worshipped by a nation. Murph's catalogue of clubs from his 35 years in professional football management includes: Nottingham Forest, Derby County, Notts County, Lincoln City, Stockport County, Al-Ittihad (Saudi Arabia), Leicester City, Luton Town, Southend United, Shelbourne, Vietnam national team, Tottenham Hotspur (youth academy), Myanmar national team, Cork City and Hull City. An antidote to the excesses of the Premier League, real football fans will love this meticulously researched story of hard graft and survival against the odds. Extracts from Murph's madcap programme notes, and original interviews with former colleagues, including Roy Hodgson, David Pleat and Howard Wilkinson, bring the wit and wisdom of this much-loved character to life.

Book excerpt: For fans of the New York Times bestsellers The Last Punisher and Lone Survivor, a heart-pounding military memoir from a former Army Ranger sniper and Special Operations weapon sergeant-turned-journalist about the incredible highs and devastating lows of his career. Growing up in small New York towns, Jack Murphy knew he wanted to lead a life far from the ordinary—a life of adventure and valor. After the 9/11 attacks, he immediately enlisted in the Army, knowing this was his chance to live the life he desired and fight for a cause he staunchly supported. After making it through the rigorous Ranger Indoctrination Program, he graduated sniper school and was promptly deployed to Afghanistan, where his experiences went from ordinary to extraordinary. In this gripping military memoir, Murphy recounts the multiple missions he underwent as a Ranger, a Special Forces weapons sergeant, and ultimately, a boots-on-the-ground journalist. From enemy ambushes, dodging explosives, crashing terrorists’ weddings, and landing helicopters in the streets of Mosul, Jack provides a hard-hitting glimpse of what combat is like in some of the world’s most dangerous, war-torn places. With tours of duty in two of the most decorated units of the armed forces, Murphy brings a unique perspective to the military genre as he reflects on his great triumphs and shattering failures both on and off the battlefield. Later, Murphy turned his attention to breaking news within the military. His stories have taken him from Iraq to Switzerland, from Syria to South Korea. From crossing Middle Eastern borders in the dead of night, to rolling into an IED-laden zone, Murphy’s stories are always a thrill a minute. Murphy’s Law tells a story of intense bravery and sacrifice—both on and off the battlefield.

Download or read book The Culture Broker written by Margaret Leslie Davis and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-08-20 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Franklin Murphy? It's not a name that is widely known; even during his lifetime the public knew little of him. But for nearly thirty years, Murphy was the dominant figure in the cultural development of Los Angeles. Behind the scenes, Murphy used his role as confidant, family friend, and advisor to the founders and scions of some of America's greatest fortunes—Ahmanson, Rockefeller, Ford, Mellon, and Annenberg—to direct the largesse of the wealthy into cultural institutions of his choosing. In this first full biography of Franklin D. Murphy (1916-994), Margaret Leslie Davis delivers the compelling story of how Murphy, as chancellor of UCLA and later as chief executive of the Times Mirror media empire, was able to influence academia, the media, and cultural foundations to reshape a fundamentally provincial city. The Culture Broker brings to light the influence of L.A.'s powerful families and chronicles the mixed motives behind large public endeavors. Channeling more than one billion dollars into the city's arts and educational infrastructure, Franklin Murphy elevated Los Angeles to a vibrant world-class city positioned for its role in the new era of global trade and cross-cultural arts.
