Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Golden Season The college idea was mine: or rather it was my mother's. She held the very sensible view that every girl should have a profession. As I showed nothing but a shuddering dis taste for medicine, and a marked inaptitude for anything else, she arrived by the process of elimination at the decision that I should learn to be a teacher. So I was sent to one of the best training colleges in the country and Margaret was sent with me because my mother objected to the dormitory system could never be persuaded that the girls were not starved and frozen and allowed to go out in the rain without rubbers and otherwise neglected and ill treated. She arranged, there fore, that I was to have a little flat near the campus and that Margaret should oversee my meals, the steam heat, and my rubbers.

Book excerpt: How do you love a place that doesn’t love you back? Emmy Quinn is West Texas through and through: her roots run deep in the sleepy small town of Steinbeck, where God sees all and football is king. She loves her community, but she knows that when she comes out as a lesbian, she may not be able to call Steinbeck—which is steeped in the Southern Baptist tradition—home anymore. After a disastrous conversation with her dad, Emmy meets Cameron, a charismatic, whip-smart grad student from Massachusetts who hates everything Texas. But Texas is in Emmy's blood. Can she build a future with a woman who can't accept the things that make Emmy who she is? Steve Quinn has just been offered his dream job as head coach of the struggling high school football team, the Steinbeck 'Stangs. The board thinks he can win them a state championship for the first time—but they tell him he can’t accept the position if he's got any skeletons in his closet. Steve is still wrestling with Emmy's coming-out: he loves his daughter, but he’s a man of faith, raised in the Baptist community. How can God ask him to choose between his dreams and his own daughter? This lush, gorgeously written debut is a love letter to the places we call home and asks how we grapple with a complicated love for people and places that might not love us back—at least, not for who we really are. The Golden Season is a powerful examination of faith, queerness and the deep-seated bonds of family, and heralds the arrival of a striking new voice in fiction. Don't miss Madeline Kay Sneed's next riveting novel, Today Tonight Forever, where one wedding weekend results in a dramatic reunion with layers of love, grief, and moving on...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Girl of the Golden Gate The general steamship agency on The Bund was a hive of bustling travelers, their faces alight with the eagerness with which they desired to be gone their many ways up and down the world. A stranger might have imagined that most of Yokohama's European or "white" population had been possessed of a sudden desire to flee beyond the seas. It was a scene common enough, however, for that season in the gateways of the Far East. Spring, with its heart call to distant homelands, had come again to break the spell of the Orient for many and to stir an unutterable longing in the breasts of others - the men and women who dream always of the day they will "go back," but who never do.

Download or read book The Victory Season written by Robert Weintraub and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The triumphant story of baseball and America after World War II. In 1945 Major League Baseball had become a ghost of itself. Parks were half empty, the balls were made with fake rubber, and mediocre replacements roamed the fields, as hundreds of players, including the game's biggest stars, were serving abroad, devoted to unconditional Allied victory in World War II. But by the spring of 1946, the country was ready to heal. The war was finally over, and as America's fathers and brothers were coming home, so too were the sport's greats. Ted Williams, Stan Musial, and Joe DiMaggio returned with bats blazing, making the season a true classic that ended in a thrilling seven-game World Series between the Boston Red Sox and the St. Louis Cardinals. America also witnessed the beginning of a new era in baseball: it was a year of attendance records, the first year Yankee Stadium held night games, the last year the Green Monster wasn't green, and, most significant, Jackie Robinson's first year playing in the Brooklyn Dodgers' system. The Victory Season brings to vivid life these years of baseball and war, including the littleknown "World Series" that servicemen played in a captured Hitler Youth stadium in the fall of 1945. Robert Weintraub's extensive research and vibrant storytelling enliven the legendary season that embodies what we now think of as the game's golden era.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Golden Bait, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Now, townspeople, as a rule, are quite as fond of seeing the coach come in in style, as the coach man is of driving it in style; and if any town had reason to be proud of its coach, Newark had, though it only changed horses there, and went away to rumble through the whole of the night, and half the following day, until it got to Berwick. That made no difference. The coach was their coach; it was always spoken of as our coach, and as a matter of principle the townsfolk stood up for it, and would not permit a word to be said against it on any terms. And there it was drawn up at the Castle - the fastest long-stage coach in England, the best horsed coach, and a coach as little liable to accidents as any coach that was ever built.

Miss Rylance was not one of the six who had started up to do the schoolmistress's bidding. She was a young lady who considered her mission in life anything rather than to carry a message - a young lady who thought herself quite the most refined and elegant thing at Mauleverer Manor, and so entirely superior to her surroundings as to be absolved from the necessity of being obliging. But Miss Pew's voice, when fortified by anger, was too much even for Miss Rylance's calm sense of her own merits, and she rose at the lady's bidding, laid down her ivory penholder on the neatly-written exercise, and walked out of the room quietly, with the slow and stately deportment imparted by a long 'course of in struction from Madame Rigolette, the fashionable dancing-mistress.
