Download or read book Two Forehands written by Ronnie Blake and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2006 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about my growing up and coming to love the game of tennis. Tennis is truly a game that I enjoy playing on a competitive level and teaching others to play. An Arthur Ashe I am not. A John McEnroe- not even close. I am a self-taught tennis player who has disputed the words "I CAN'T!" or any of the negatives I once associated with learning to play this wonderful game. I have been asked, why the title- TWO FOREHANDS? Because as I have traveled over the years playing tennis tournaments in and out of Texas, meeting a lot of interesting people and players- many times they do not remember my name, but they do remember that I play with either hand and often I have heard them reply- "There's that guy with TWO FOREHANDS." With that in mind, I thought what a fitting title for my book. I hope that you enjoy reading it. --RONNIE W. BLAKE

Download or read book The Master written by Christopher Clarey and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This New York Times bestselling biography tells the life story of the most iconic men's tennis player of the modern era. There have been other biographies of Roger Federer, but never one with this kind of access to the man himself, his support team, and the most prominent figures in the game, including such rivals as Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Roddick. In The Master, New York Times correspondent Christopher Clarey sits down with Federer and those closest to him to tell the story of the greatest player in men's tennis. Roger Federer has often made it look astonishingly easy through the decades: carving backhands, gliding to forehands, leaping for overheads and, in his most gravity-defying act, remaining high on a pedestal in a world of sports rightfully flooded with cynicism. But his path from temperamental, bleach-blond teenager with dubious style sense to one of the greatest, most self-possessed and elegant of competitors has been a long-running act of will, not destiny. He not only had a great gift. He had grit. Christopher Clarey, one of the top international sportswriters working today, has covered Federer since the beginning of his professional career. He was in Paris on the Suzanne Lenglen Court for Federer's first Grand Slam match and has interviewed him exclusively more than any other journalist since his rise to prominence. Here, Clarey focuses on the pivotal people, places, and moments in Federer's long and rich career: reporting from South Africa, South America, the Middle East, four Grand Slam tournaments, and Federer's native Switzerland. It has been a journey like no other player's, rife with victories and a few crushing defeats, one that has redefined enduring excellence and made Federer a sentimental favorite worldwide. The Master tells the story of Federer's life and career on both an intimate and grand scale, in a way no one else could possibly do.

Download or read book Barney written by Michael Rosenthal and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An impetuous outsider who delighted in confronting American hypocrisy and prudery, Barney Rosset liberated American culture from the constraints of Puritanism. As the head of Grove Press, he single-handedly broke down the laws against obscenity, changing forever the nature of writing and publishing in this country. He brought to the reading public the European avant-garde, among them Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter, radical political and literary voices such as Malcolm X, Che Guevara, and Jack Kerouac, steamy Victorian erotica, and banned writers such as D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller, and William Burroughs. His almost mystical belief in the sacrosanct nature of the First Amendment essentially demarcates the before and after of American publishing. Barney explores how Grove's landmark legal victories freed publishers to print what they wanted, and it traces Grove's central role in the countercultural ferment of the sixties and early seventies. Drawing on the Rosset papers at Columbia University and personal interviews with former Grove Press staff members, friends, and wives, it tells the fascinating story of this feisty, abrasive, visionary, and principled cultural revolutionary—a modern "Huckleberry Finn" according to Nobel Prize–winning novelist Kenzaburo Oe—who altered the reading habits of a nation.
