Amazing Hilary Duff Biography
As someone who has read numerous biographies about Hilary Duff, I will tell you right now that this is one of the best. Boone has outdone herself in putting together a beautiful 80-page book featuring not only large, color photos of Hilary, but also tons of information about her, her family, friends, career, up-coming projects, her music, her charity work, etc. There is also a cute quiz for ...

The Corporal Was a Pitcher: The Courage of Lou Brissie

Ira Berkow, Foreword by Tom Brokaw

Triumph Books, 2009

An inspiring story of courage and determination
Lou Brissie's lifetime record of 44 wins and 48 losses with the Philadelphia Athletics and Cleveland Indians from 1947 through 1953 wouldn't be impressive if you didn't know his incredible story. A sportswriter once described Brissie as "a living symbol of one-man's will to win against all odds." Brissie, a pitching phenom before he entered the service, was 20 years old when he was ...

I Remember Woody

Triumph Books (IL), 2004

Charming Look at a Great Coach
I REMEMBER WOODY is a charming look at Woody Hayes through countless interviews with players, coaches, and others who knew him personally. Current themes appear--ruthlessly honest, hard working, obsessive about education, forever caring about his players, indifferent about money. And, of course, a little crazy. I read this book quickly and with much enjoyment.

A home run
As a young boy growing up in a Detroit suburb, I often fell asleep at night with a transistor radio and an earphone, listening to Ernie Harwell and George Kell broadcasting Tigers' games. I've been a fan since. This book brought back a lot of those memories. It was well written and a fitting tribute to a man who has meant so much to the game. Well done.

Having only been told of the folklore of the Brooklyn Dodgers from my father, it was a real treat to see new photos of a golden age of baseball.

A Must Own Book If You're A Bosox Fan..
I've been a Red Sox fan since the early 1960's - around the time that Carl Yastzemski, my all time favorite player, came up - and in common with all Red Sox fans, have suffered through some of the most heart-breaking losses imagineable.. And, unfortunately, this book does not pull any punches or try to sugar coat the losses. It's all there - the loss to the Cardinals in 1967 after Yaz almost ...

Thank goodness they keep thinking up puzzles
My husband and I have done 1-2 Jumble puzzles every morning of our 15 year marriage. Some are easy, some are so hard that we spend the morning thinking and then going back to it. We have differing ways of approaching it - I must be looking at the letters to make a word, he keeps the letters in his head while solving it. It must reflect how our brains solve problems - he's an engineer, I'm a ...
