Download or read book Dynamite on the Diamond written by Donald B. Lucas and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dyno is a fourteen-year-old pitching phenom. Chip is his best friend, a highly skilled defensive catcher, a solid hitter, and an exceptional leader. Chip is also the only player who can keep hothead Dyno in line. Together, they’re the star players on the under-fifteen baseball team called the Badgers. High school baseball coach Jim Robertson sees the Badgers’ talent so agrees to be their coach, shaping these young athletes into stars. However, Dyno proves to be a problem. He might be a gifted pitcher, but his cocky and negative attitude leaves much to be desired—so much so that his teammates start turning against him. Coach Robertson knows a player like Dyno could tear a winning team apart, so he enlists Dyno’s best bud. Chip needs to help Dyno work through his personal issues to build trust and chemistry with his team. The Badgers could go all the way to the top if they find a way to work together and support each other, because talent alone does not produce winners.

Download or read book Colorado s Historic Schools written by Linda Wommack and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Construction of a school building reflected the importance of universal education and a community's desire to establish permanence in the ever-expanding Western frontier. Since 1859 when Colorado's first one-room schoolhouse was established in Denver City, over six hundred school buildings have been built across the Centennial State. These schools were often the social centers of the community. Civic town meetings were held in them, as well as other political events. Some of these schoolhouses were still operating in rural communities through the 1950s. Today, these schools are the touchstones to Colorado’s pioneering past. Colorado’s Historic Schools is part-regional history, and part-travel guide featuring over 140 of the most significant schools across the state, all recognized as historic landmarks. Along with interesting school stories and building descriptions, there are historic photos and stories of legendary teachers, tragedies, and even murder over the 150-year history of Colorado’s schools.

Download or read book Slices of a Life written by Paul Gabler and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-12-28 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slices of a Life consists of memoirs and meditations---odd, strange, amusing, touching, or otherwise of interest---that readers from all walks and stages of life can enjoy. Although being, to a large extent, a farrago of the author's failings, follies, frailties, foibles, and other folderol and foofaraw, the book nevertheless seeks to demonstrate that this former Midwestern attorney---with a knack for waxing poetic, philosophizing, or poking fun at himself, sometimes in a single breath---is a worthy and meritorious person. Capturing the essence of life---the highs and the lows, the ups and the downs, triumph and defeat, the good, the bad, and the ugly, etc.---in the Midwest (specifically Chicago and its suburbs) over a long period of time, the book expounds on such universal topics as family, youth, friendship, fatherhood, pets, sports, travel, and more.

Download or read book The House of David Baseball Team written by Joel Hawkins and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000-10-09 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Israelite House of David was founded in 1903, as a religious colony in Benton Harbor, Michigan. An entrepreneurial group of worshippers, the colony contributed much to the community, including a traveling baseball team that toured the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The almost 200 images collected here by authors Joel Hawkins and Terry Bertolino document the history of this bearded, barnstorming group of baseball players throughout their careers. The colony accomplished much within the community, credited with inventing the automatic pinsetter used in bowling and the first cold storage facility in the county. However, it was the House of David baseball players that caught the nation's attention, with their long hair and beards, which was forbidden to be cut or shaved as a code of their faith. As news of their prowess spread, the team received more and more press throughout the country. Much like the Negro Leagues of the same period, the House of David baseball players would criss-cross the country, playing with such greats as the Kansas City Monarchs, Pittsburg Crawfords, and Satchel Paige and his All Stars.
