Download or read book Reading My Father written by Alexandra Styron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-04-19 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PART MEMOIR AND PART ELEGY, READING MY FATHER IS THE STORY OF A DAUGHTER COMING TO KNOW HER FATHER AT LAST— A GIANT AMONG TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN NOVELISTS AND A MAN WHOSE DEVASTATING DEPRESSION DARKENED THE FAMILY LANDSCAPE. In Reading My Father, William Styron’s youngest child explores the life of a fascinating and difficult man whose own memoir, Darkness Visible, so searingly chronicled his battle with major depression. Alexandra Styron’s parents—the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Sophie’s Choice and his political activist wife, Rose—were, for half a century, leading players on the world’s cultural stage. Alexandra was raised under both the halo of her father’s brilliance and the long shadow of his troubled mind. A drinker, a carouser, and above all “a high priest at the altar of fiction,” Styron helped define the concept of The Big Male Writer that gave so much of twentieth-century American fiction a muscular, glamorous aura. In constant pursuit of The Great Novel, he and his work were the dominant force in his family’s life, his turbulent moods the weather in their ecosystem. From Styron’s Tidewater, Virginia, youth and precocious literary debut to the triumphs of his best-known books and on through his spiral into depression, Reading My Father portrays the epic sweep of an American artist’s life, offering a ringside seat on a great literary generation’s friendships and their dramas. It is also a tale of filial love, beautifully written, with humor, compassion, and grace.

Book excerpt: AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY FROM THE PIONEER OF THE INDUSTRY AN INSPIRATIONAL STORY OF ONE MAN’S ASTONISHING MENTAL AND PHYSICAL STRENGTH This is a story of one man’s struggle to forge a business out of a hobby and how the business grew and became an industry. Starting with a blank sheet of paper in 1968, this industry is now worth billions. Somewhere along the journey I picked up the title ‘Father of the Fitness Industry.’ My pioneering instincts saw me building the most successful health club of its time: the forerunner of a modern day culture. The reader will join me on that journey and share some staggering adventures. The solo run world record attempt from John O’Groats to Lands End covering over seventy miles a day and filmed in its entirety by the BBC’s Forty Minutes programme, in which I was tagged the multi-marathon man. My 50th birthday was celebrated with running fifty miles, lifting 50,000 lbs in a series of exercises in fifty minutes, playing five world class athletes at squash and ending the day with five hundred sit-ups. The journey took me to five world championships, twenty-six marathons, running 127 miles in one day and climbing the Swiss Alps at 75 years of age. The reader will learn about motivation, the psychology of success, and how we became the darlings of the industry, training future fitness instructors through our National Training Company’s government qualification. I picked up three Lifetime Achievement Awards and the government’s National Training Award. I was a co-founder of the Fitness Industry Association that became the second biggest of its kind in the world. I wrote the NVQ for the industry lead body and was also a judge at the Mr Universe Contest for fifteen years. Come along and meet Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jonah Barrington, Nat Lofthouse, Roger Hunt, Gordon Taylor, the world’s strong man Geoff Capes, Darth Vader and many more, on a roller coaster turbo jet journey with the Father of Fitness. “Ken’s mental and physical strength is awesome, but it is his philosophy on what makes the human mind and body, that sets him apart from most fitness gurus.”- Robin McGibbon – Best selling author “Heathcote’s leadership started a fashion that became a phenomena. He inspired millions.” - Paul Fletcher MBE – Founder Partner at StadiArena “A very dedicated professional. A speaker for all ages. He has a lot to give and there is a lot to learn.” - Sam Allardyce – Football Manager at West Ham United
Download or read book Dads Kids and Fitness written by William Marsiglio and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-31 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now more than ever, American dads act as hands-on caregivers who are devoted to keeping themselves and their families healthy. Yet, men are also disproportionately likely to neglect their own health care, diets, and exercise routines—bad habits that they risk passing on to their children. In Dads, Kids, and Fitness, William Marsiglio challenges dads to become more health-conscious in how they live and raise their children. His conclusions are drawn not only from his revealing interviews with a diverse sample of dads and pediatric healthcare professionals, but also from his own unique personal experiences—as a teenage father who, thirty-one years later, became a later-life dad to a second son. Marsiglio’s research highlights the value of treating dads as central players in what he calls the social health matrix, which can serve both healthy children and those with special needs. He also outlines how schools, healthcare facilities, religious groups, and other organizations can help dads make a positive imprint on their families’ health, fitness, and well-being. Anchored in compelling life stories of joy, tragedy, and resilience, Dads, Kids, and Fitness extends and deepens public conversation about health at a pivotal historical moment. Its progressive message breathes new life into discussions about fathering, manhood, and health.

Download or read book Disaster Preparedness written by Heather Havrilesky and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-12-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Smart, hilarious, unique-- just terrific." --Anne Lamott A thoughtful, witty memoir from the author of How to Be a Person in the World and the popular advice column, Ask Polly. When Heather Havrilesky was a kid during the '70s, harrowing disaster films dominated every movie screen with earthquakes that destroyed huge cities, airplanes that plummeted towards the ground and giant sharks that ripped teenagers to shreds. Between her parents' dramatic clashes and her older siblings' hazing, Heather's home life sometimes mirrored the chaos onscreen. Disaster Preparedness charts how the most humiliating and painful moments in Havrilesky's past forced her to develop a wide range of defense mechanisms, some adaptive, some piteously ill-suited to modern life. From premature boxing lessons to the competitive grooming of cheerleading camp, from her parents' divorce to her father's sudden death, Havrilesky explores a path from innocence and optimism to self-protection and caution, bravely reexamining the injuries that shaped her, the lessons that sunk in along the way, and the insights that carried her through. Disaster Preparedness is a road map to the personal disasters we all face from an irresistible voice that gets straight to the beauty and grace at the heart of every calamity.
