Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: Very Good. Still remembered as one of the biggest scandals in English football, the match-fixing case of the early 1960s robbed Sheffield Wednesday and England centre half Peter Swan of the best years of his career. A four-month prison sentence was just the start of it; upon his release, Peter found he had been banned sine die - that is, indefinitely - by the FA. Forced into a succession of low-paid jobs to make ends meet for himself and his young family, Peter eventually returned to football eight years later after the ban was lifted. No player had ever spent so long out of the game. How had it come to this? Before "The People" newspaper ran its sensational story, Peter had been one of English football's brightest young stars, featuring in a Wednesday team that was one of the strongest in the country and making nineteen consecutive appearances for the national side. In this book, he speaks openly about his life, his career and the scandal that rocked the nation, debunking many of the myths and half-truths that have surrounded the affair. With many rare photographs and a foreword by Jimmy Greaves, it is the inside story of one of football's most controversial episodes. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Añadir al carritoPaperback. Condición: Very Good. The first UK-born player to be drafted into the NHL and the finest ever to grace these shores, Scottish-born ice-hockey legend Tony Hand, M.B.E., tells his story from growing up on a council estate in Edinburgh and playing his first senior game at the tender age of fourteen for the Murrayfield Racers to training with the Edmonton Oilers in the NHL and landing the grand slam with the Sheffield Steelers. In his own words, Tony takes you through his life from winning and losing at Wembley to the highs and lows with the GB national team. Tony has coached Belfast, Dundee Stars (whom he took to a league and play-off double) and Edinburgh and is now with Manchester Phoenix. Find out why he didn't take up Edmonton's offer to stay in the NHL, what really happens on a European tour and why he was banned for taking a cold remedy. Savvy, witty and often controversial, Tony pulls no punches in describing his time in ice hockey and outlining how the sport should move forward. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Meyer, Jackie Merri (jacket design); Russo, Tony (hand lettering); Fernandez, Stanislaw (jakcet illustration); Drate, Stanley S. (text design) Ilustrador. 1st Edition. As new condition forest green boards, black spine and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Nelson DeMille; Author Dedication; Author's Note; Preliminary Page Quote by Georges Braque and Acknowledgments and Other Matters. Illustrated with front and rear endpaper color maps. "#1 New York Times bestselling author Nelson DeMille brings back Paul Brenner, the army investigator from The General's Daughter, in a sensational and poignant new novel of suspense. There is a name carved into the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., of an American army lieutenant whose death is shrounded in mystery. The authoities have reason to believe that he was not killed by the enemy, or by friendly fire; they suspect he was murdered. At first, Paul Brenner, himself a Vietnam vet, isn't interested in investigation the case. After his forced retierement from the army's Criminal Investigation Division, he has adapted to the life of a civilian with a comfortable pension. Then his old boss, Karl Hellmann, summons him to the Vietnam Memorial to call in a career's worth of favors. Hellmann tells Brenner of the circumstances surrounding the officer's death, and gives him this much to go on: The incident happened over three decades ago in Vietnam; the only evidence is a recently discovered letter written by an enemy soldier describing an act of shocking violence. The name of the North Vietnamese soldier is known, but not his present whereabouts, or even if he is alive or dead. Brenner's assignment: Return to Vietnam and find the witness. The addendum: The mission is very important to the U.S. Army. Brenner's the ideal man for the job. And it's in his best interest that he doesn't know what this case is really about. Reluctantly, Brenner begins a strange journey that unearths his own painful memories of Vietnam and leads him down a trail as dangerous as the ones he walked a lifetime ago as a young infantryman. From sultry, sinful Saigon, where he meets beautiful American expatriate Susan Weber, to the remote, forbidding wilderness of up-country Vietnam, he will follow a trail of lies, betrayal, and murder.and uncover an explosive, long-buried secret. Filled with intrigue and espionage, romance and seduction, action and adventure - as well as the author's patented, subversive wit - Up Country is, above all, about what happens when men fight in wars and how it changes them forever." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "A brilliant story teller." - Los Angeles Features Syndicate. "A marvelous contemporary writer with something to say, something as rear as it is rewarding." - New York Daily News. "A master of the unexpected. An accomplished and incredibly versatile storyteller." - Cleveland Plain Dealer. "An intelligent and accomplished storyteller." - Miami Herald. "Authors just don't get any better than Nelson DeMille." - Denver Post.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. Echavarria, Paola (jacket design and hand-tinting); Freed, Leonard (jacket photograph); Liebovich, Alyse (author photograph) Ilustrador. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition green boards, gold spine, and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication and Acknowledgments. A tiny repaired closed nick at the upper left rear jacket tip (see photographs - very difficult to notice in the picture). All pages are in as new unmarked condition and the spine/binding is in exceedingly tight and square unread condition (see photographs). "It's the summer of 1957. In the heart of Chicago, first-generation Italian immigrants Angela Rosa and Agostino Peccatori are caught between worlds. Far from home and with five children born in the United States, the Peccatori family is left clinging to old country ways in an era of upending change. While Agostino spends his days running the neighborhood trattoria, Mio Fratello, Angela Rosa must face the building tension at home as her children struggle to define themselves within a family rooted in tradition. When Agostino's wandering eye can no longer be ignored, and lingering questions of fidelity and responsibility invade the Peccatoris' intimate world, the pressure to keep the family together mounts. Just as it seems the Peccatoris' stoic foundation and resilient spirit are enough to withstand the family friction, the events of a single tragic evening bring all their lives to a sudden and irreversible standstill. Haunted by overwhelming loss, and drowning in years of secrets and deception, the family begins to unravel under the burden of guilt. As the Peccatori children move into adulthood, alienated from one another by grief and the complexity of their adolescence, their ties of kinship are put to the ultimate test. Bound together by blood yet indelibly marked by loss, the Peccatori family becomes a testament to the power of sacrifice, loyalty, and unconditional love. Told through alternating voices and beautifully crafted prose, When the World Was Young is a stunning, poignant tale of one family's will to survive." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Tony Romano's When the World Was Young refuses to sentimentalize the Italian immigrant life that it explores. It pulls you deeper and deeper into this life through a series of wonderfully disturbing surprises that will make your heart ache." - Robert Hellenga, author. ". a masterful evocation of a lost piece of American culture. The writing is sure and precise, the psychological and emotional insights always on target, the characters perfectly formed. Whether his is writing about a woman in labor, the intimacy of love, a street-corner altercation, or a wrenching conversation between father and son, Tony Romano's brilliance - as a craftsman and storyteller - shines from every paragraph. Simply a fine, fine book." - Roland Merullo, author.
