Story
In 1943, while the New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals were winning pennants and meeting in that year's World Series, one of the nation's strongest baseball teams practiced on a skinned-out college field in the heart of North Carolina. Ted Williams, Johnny Pesky, and Johnny Sain were among a cadre of fighter-pilot cadets who wore the Cloudbuster Nine baseball jersey at an elite Navy training school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Story
El trabajo de Wright Thompson incluye varios de los artículos deportivos más leídos en la historia de ESPN y sus artículos han sido incluidos en diez ocasiones en la serie Best American Sports Writing. Cuenta con John Grisham y Richard Ford como algunos de sus más reconocidos admiradores. Pero decir que sus artículos solo están relacionados con el deporte es quedarse muy corto. Thompson logra conectar por completo en lo más profundo de la gente sobre la que escribe, haciendo un gran análisis sobre el combustible que enciende sus ambiciones.

Story
Diciotto canzoni, diciannove donne straordinarie. Simone Sarasso, autore innamorato della montagna e della fatica, racconta le eroine del trail running con le canzoni che sono diventate, concerto dopo concerto, la colonna sonora della sua vita. Una raccolta di ritratti non convenzionali. Dagli AC/DC ai Green Day, dai Doors ai Metallica passando per le sonorità più ricercate (ma non per questo meno selvagge) delle Bikini Kill e dei Pogues, Sarasso ripercorre le carriere delle atlete più forti del panorama italiano e internazionale.

Story
Trotter has been dangling from astonishingly high places for over 25 years, more than half his life. He’s been at the forefront of the sport for most of that time, specializing in first ascents on rock faces most people cannot imagine scaling. In Uplifted, Sonnie recounts the most memorable moments of his career but also the rich relationships, including with epic climbers such as Tommy Caldwell ("Dawn Wall") and Alex Honnold ("Free Solo"), that are the spine of the sport, as well as the psyche that draws one to and evolves as one grows into and through this unique and challenging endeavor.

Michael Tougias and Adam Gamble had good lives: married with two children each, nice homes in the suburbs, jobs that paid the bills, and frequent fishing trips out on the ocean. But those comfortable lives had cracks in them and soon they found themselves hit by a rogue wave of divorce, financial hardship, addiction, and career upheaval. What kept them going—and helped them navigate the rough waters of middle age—was fishing and friendship.
