7,000 Clams: A Novel
by Lee IrbyFrank Hearn is a down-on-his-luck bootlegger and bruiser, looking for the big score in the heart of the Roaring Twenties. When he loses a shipment of top-quality booze to a double-crossing government thief, Frank hunts him down, roughs him up, and finds something that catches his eye. What at first appears to be a scrap of paper is actually a handwritten and unmistakably authentic IOU for $7,000, signed by Babe Ruth. Seven-thousand clams is a lot of money--and when Frank gets a tip that the Yankees are about to begin spring training in St. Petersburg, Florida, he wastes no time leaving New Jersey to track down the Babe. Frank thinks he's covered his bases: Along for the ride is a dangerous and curvy blonde named Ginger DeMore. She's smart, she packs a snub-nose pistol in her purse, and she's the perfect accomplice to help convince the Babe to cough up the dough. It seems like the perfect plan, but Frank and Ginger aren't the only ones seeking their fortunes in Florida. 1920's St. Pete is a veritable nest of vipers. Hustlers, gamblers, Yankee fans, and even a sociopath are lurking in the booming burg--not to mention a team of gangsters sent by a prominent Chicago mobster named Al Capone (who's instructed his boys to scour the town for a curvy dame by the name of Ginger DeMore). In this taut Roaring Twenties crime novel, filled with colorful characters both real and imagined, Lee Irby takes readers straight into the authentic heart of the era, bringing to life all the sizzling style--from the slang and the fashions to the smell of bathtub gin. Worthy of a place at Elmore Leonard's table, 7,000 CLAMS is an enormously entertaining tale and a superb fiction debut.

715: Reflections on Hammerin? Hank and the Home Run That Made History
by Kevin NearyHank Aaron forever cemented his legacy in baseball when he surpassed the Babe’s home run record, but his impact reaches far beyond the diamond. 715, which celebrates the 40th anniversary of Hank Aaron’s legendary 715th home run (April 2014), is a tribute to Hank Aaron that features a collection of quotes, statements, and short stories from people whose lives he touched. 715 features over 100 interviews from Hall of Famers, teammates, former and current players, Baseball Commissioners, celebrities, Senators, Governors, Mayors, Supreme Court Justices, and two US presidents (Carter & Clinton). There are also contributions from the Jackie Robinson and Martin Luther King families, as well as Reverend Jesse Jackson, emphasizing the social impact of Henry Aaron and explaining how he dealt with the constant racism he faced, which included death threats, as he approached the record. Henry Aaron, whom many believe continues to reign as the true "Home Run King,” more importantly, reigns as one of baseball’s most socially influential players, not running from the questions of face. 715 also includes a forward by Monte Irvin, the oldest living member of the Negro Leagues and fellow Hall of Famer member, which highlights Hank Aaron’s importance to African American athletes, specifically, and to baseball in general.

AuthorRick Clark examines seventy-five different possible variations on the basic down block - with examples on how to use the down block to defend against twelve kinds of attacks- from wrist grabs and punches to kicks and attacks with a stick.

78. Historia oral del Mundial
by Matías BausoLa historia más completa que se haya hecho de esta copa mundial de fútbol: un relato monumental, exhaustivo y fascinante en el que se combina el recuerdo de la aventura deportiva con la revisión de uno de los momentos más oscuros de la historia política de Argentina. 78. Historia oral del Mundial es la reconstrucción más completa que se haya hecho de esta copa de fútbol. A través de los testimonios de sus protagonistas y un monumental trabajo de archivo, toma forma un relato en el que se conjugan el recuerdo de la aventura deportiva con la revisión de uno de los momentos más oscuros de la historia de la Argentina. ¿Es cierto que estaba prohibido criticar a Menotti y al equipo? ¿Era el juego de la Selección tan menottista como se lo recuerda? ¿Por qué Kempes fue el único repatriado? ¿Qué sucedió con Carrascosa? ¿Por qué los holandeses no fueron a la cena de premiación? ¿Estuvo arreglado el partido con Perú? ¿Qué significado tuvieron los festejos callejeros? ¿Funcionaron como un aval temporario de la Dictadura o, por el contrario, fueron una vía de escape al clima de opresión reinante? ¿Consiguieron los militares utilizar el Mundial como cortina de humo para tapar sus crímenes atroces? ¿Por qué no había argentinos en los grupos de boicot europeos? ¿Celebraron los exiliados? ¿Qué postura adoptó Montoneros? ¿Cómo trató la población a las Madres de Plaza de Mayo durante los veinticinco días que duró la Copa? Es imposible contar el Mundial 78 sin contar la Dictadura, pero a la vez su significación y magnitud no pueden reducirse a las oscuras circunstancias políticas que le dieron marco. Gran parte de lo que se cree saber sobre aquel campeonato es erróneo. A lo largo de cuarenta años se ha impuesto todo tipo de mitos, deformaciones y falseamientos. 78. Una historia oral del Mundial propone un nuevo recorrido adentrándose en los matices y en las contradicciones del relato de Argentina 78, sin los reduccionismos y las lecturas banales que buscan tranquilizar la memoria y la conciencia. A partir de testimonios exclusivos, más de 150 entrevistas y una labor de archivo monumental, Matías Bauso hace un trabajo de reconstrucción inédito para dar forma a una narración exhaustiva del largo camino que condujo hacia aquellas controvertidas semanas de junio de 1978, y de su proyección al día de hoy, al cumplirse exactamente cuatro décadas.
