Peter Capstick's Africa: A Return to the Long Grass
by Peter Hathaway CapstickPeter Hathaway Capstick is a name synonymous with excitement, danger, and high adventure. Sportsman, adventurer, raconteur par excellence, Capstick has been recognized as a modern-day master of African hunting literature—a successor to the works of Hemingway and Robert Ruark.Capstick has written post facto about classic hunters of the past and safaris in which he participated as a professional hunter in such books as Death in the Silent Places and Death in the Dark Continent. Now, he presents an enthralling tale of an entirely new safari, an exciting first-person adventure of his own dangerous and very personal excursion. The result is a definitive work on African hunting, and one of his greatest achievements.In 1985, Capstick went back into the African bush with two top photographers and a crack professional hunter. It was a venture taken for personal challenge, and for the chance to look anew at what had become of the Africa immortalized in his own earlier works. Peter Capstick’s Africa: A Return to the Long Grass is the chronicle, in text and pictures, of this safari. It is full of the same edge-of-the-seat narration, witty anecdotes, and wry observations that have made Capstick’s earlier books so popular. The text of the book has been integrated with the photographs of Paul Kimble and Dick van Niekerk into a lavish full-color production that illustrates Capstick’s narrative in a way his fans have never seen before.

Peñarol y siempre Peñarol: La transición de 1913 y la cuestión del decanato
by Luciano ÁlvarezEsta investigación se centró en el proceso de separación de Peñarol de la empresa que lo fundó. Pero también reveló otros temas, acaso más interesantes, como la historia de los primeros clubes deportivos uruguayos y de cómo pasaron del amateurismo al profesionalismo. ¿Cuál es el club decano del fútbol uruguayo? Esta sencilla pregunta es el punto de partida de una polémica que solo ha crecido en intensidad con el paso de los años. Para responderla y, de ser posible, resolver la disputa que originó, Luciano Álvarez describe, analiza y esclarece los sucesos de 1913 y 1914, así como repasa todos los argumentos que se han esgrimido a favor y en contra del decanato de Peñarol a lo largo de siete décadas.Pero esta obra no se centra en el decanato, «un bien de relativa importancia», sino que narra los orígenes de la práctica futbolística en Uruguay así como la historia de uno de los clubes más prestigiosos y galardonados del mundo, su proceso de democratización, su popularidad y sus aportes al fútbol uruguayo.
