Jimmie Foxx
Author: W. Harrison Daniel
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 9780786418671
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
In February 1925, 17-year-old Jimmie Foxx left his home in Sudlersville, Maryland, and joined the Philadelphia Athletics in spring training. Over the next twenty years, Foxx was one of the most consistent stars in the majors. His long home runs were legendary--his 535 were second only to Babe Ruth's 714 when he retired in 1945. Only six years later, he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Foxx tried his hand at a variety of jobs after he left baseball, but seemed always to be drawn back to the game. He coached and managed in the minor leagues and even managed the Fort Wayne Daisies of the All American Girls Professional Baseball League in 1953. This is the story of Foxx's rise to glory, his life in and out of the game, and his love affair with the national pastime.

California in the 1930s
Author: Federal Writers Project of the Works Progress Administration
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520954645
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 828
Book Description
Alive with the exuberance, contradictions, and variety of the Golden State, this Depression-era guide to California is more than 700 pages of information that is, as David Kipen writes in his spirited introduction, "anecdotal, opinionated, and altogether habit-forming." Describing the history, culture, and roadside attractions of the 1930s, the WPA Guide to California features some of the very best anonymous literature of its era, with writing by luminaries such as San Francisco poet Kenneth Rexroth, composer-writer- hobo Harry Partch, and authors Tillie Olsen and Kenneth Patchen.

Book Description
This book is a compilation of recent Yiddish, Israeli and American-Jewish poetry in one compact volume. "Eleanor Ehrenkranz's Jewish poetry anthology encapsulates the agony of the Middle East in distilled images that pierce the heart." -Tovah Feldshuh, actress "I have to admit that I don't usually like poetry...But ever since I first read it, I have made an exception for Yankev Glatshteyn's Praying the Sunset Prayer, which expertly performs what I believe to be the function of art: to suggest to us why life is worth living." -Dara Horn, novelist "I loved reading Robert Pinsky's poem The Night Game. It is wonderfully wise and evocative, characteristically American and Jewish. I see, in Pinsky's words, the limitless opportunities of America through the lens of America's game, baseball." -Senator Joseph I. Lieberman "Rachel Korn's I Am Soaked Th rough By You is a beautifully economical history of love, soaked through with passion, tenderness and gratitude." -Judith Viorst, poet and novelist
