    Paperback. Condición: Good. The only time in the history of Wimbledon that the men's singles final was not played is told in detail by the crowned champion in this illuminating tennis biography. Sidney Wood won the 1931 Wimbledon title by default over Frank Shields--his school buddy, doubles partner, roommate, and Davis Cup teammate--in one of the most curious episodes in sports history. Wood tells the tale of how Shields was ordered by the U.S. Tennis Association not to compete in the championship match so that he could rest his injured knee in preparation for an upcoming Davis Cup match. Three years later the story continues when he and Shields played a match at the Queen's Club for the Wimbledon trophy. Also included are a compilation of short stories that deliver fascinating anecdotes of the 1930s and a signature document of the play and styles of 20th-century tennis legends.…

    Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Remember the days when the Church was looked upon with favor and considered a bastion of hope, truth, love and forgiveness? Have you ever reminisced over the days growing up when prayer and Bible reading were not only allowed in schools but even the Ten Commandments were encouraged to follow with plaques on the wall? Do you recall not long ago that when a tragedy struck in a local community a Christian Pastor was called in to pray for the victims and then offer them godly Biblical counsel? What has happened to all this? Where did it all go and in such quick procession? Why has our godly Biblical upbringing been erased from our hearts, homes, minds, and nation? It's simply due to the fact that the Church has been invaded by a massive amount of unbelievers. Therefore, this book, Enemies Within: How the Church was Invaded by Unbelievers Vol.2 seeks to equip you with the groundbreaking historical data showing how non-Christians have not only infiltrated the Church today, but they are controlling it turning it into a godless enterprise. Here you will discover such mind-numbing truths as: God's Judgment with a Relativistic Mind, God's Judgment with a Woeful Destruction, The Twisting of Christian Pietism, God's Judgement on Going Woke, The Filtering of Biblical Christianity, The Twisting of Biblical Jesus, The Promotion of a One World Religion, and The Eradication of Biblical Christianity. The Church today is by and large not only not Biblical it has become the very godless entity God warned us about in the Bible 2,000 years ago. It's called the Great Apostasy and it's leading the world towards a satanic One World Religion that God commands all His people to come out of and be ye separate. Don't delay Get equipped with the truth Get your copy of Enemies Within: How the Church was Invaded by Unbelievers Vol.2 and share with as many as you can before it's too late. Paget, Sidney; Hutchinson, George Wylie (ilustrador).…

    Paperback. Condición: Good. "I have no wish to play the pontificating fool, pretending that I've suddenly come up with the answers to all life's questions. Quite that contrary, I began this book as an exploration, an exercise in self-questing. In other words, I wanted to find out, as I looked back at a long and complicated life, with many twists and turns, how well I've done at measuring up to the values I myself have set." --Sidney Poitier In this luminous memoir, a true American icon looks back on his celebrated life and career. His body of work is arguably the most morally significant in cinematic history, and the power and influence of that work are indicative of the character of the man behind the many storied roles. Sidney Poitier here explores these elements of character and personal values to take his own measure--as a man, as a husband and a father, and as an actor. Poitier credits his parents and his childhood on tiny Cat Island in the Bahamas for equipping him with the unflinching sense of right and wrong and of self-worth that he has never surrendered and that have dramatically shaped his world. "In the kind of place where I grew up," recalls Poitier, "what's coming at you is the sound of the sea and the smell of the wind and momma's voice and the voice of your dad and the craziness of your brothers and sisters.and that's it." Without television, radio, and material distractions to obscure what matters most, he could enjoy the simple things, endure the long commitments, and find true meaning in his life. Poitier was uncompromising as he pursued a personal and public life that would honor his upbringing and the invaluable legacy of his parents. Just a few years after his introduction to indoor plumbing and the automobile, Poitier broke racial barrier after racial barrier to launch a pioneering acting career. Committed to the notion that what one does for a living articulates to who one is, Poitier played only forceful and affecting characters who said something positive, useful, and lasting about the human condition. Here is Poitier's own introspective look at what has informed his performances and his life. Poitier explores the nature of sacrifice and commitment, price and humility, rage and forgiveness, and paying the price for artistic integrity. What emerges is a picture of a man in the face of limits--his own and the world's. A triumph of the spirit, The Measure of a Man captures the essential Poitier.…
