Over But Not Out
Author: Richie Benaud
Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton
ISBN: 1444711210
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 588
Book Description
The story of a lifetime at the very centre of international cricket, from the most respected TV commentator in the game. Few people understand cricket as well as Richie Benaud. For sixty years, as player and commentator, he has set the standards for others to follow and has witnessed all the major events in the game. No one else has found such favour with the vast numbers of cricket lovers in both Britain and Australia. A high-class attacking batsman and masterful legspin bowler, he captained Australia in 28 of his 63 Tests, regaining the Ashes in 1958-59 and taking part in both Laker's match in 1956 and the Tied Test in 1960. His television career, which began in 1963 while he was still a Test player, has coincided with a period of astonishing change - in the way the game is played, with the increasing popularity of the shorter formats, and in the way it is broadcast, with the innovations that began with World Series Cricket. In Over But Not Out, Richie Benaud has added extensive new material to his acclaimed Anything but . . . an Autobiography in order to cover the years since its publication; he not only revisits his long and remarkable career but also casts his eye over cricket in the 21st century. He gives his distinctive take on series such as the 2005 and 2009 Ashes and contemplates the future of the game he loves, revealing strong and sometimes surprising opinions on Twenty20, day-night games, technology, referral systems, no-balls, neutral umpires and match-fixing. Packed with stories and illuminated by his characteristic incisiveness and independent-minded good sense, Over But Not Out is required reading for all followers of the game.

Year in Dreamland
Author: Taylor Baptist
Publisher: eBook Partnership
ISBN: 1783016078
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
We met the self-opinionated, tactless Jack Gardner before in the "e;Honey Do List"e;, a recent Evvy Award winner. Ten years have rolled by since then, and he has become totally paranoid about his health. His fruitless search for the Fountain of Youth has turned him into a full-blown hypochondriac, and he stumbles through life in a medication-induced haze. Ringing in the ears and brain fog are now constant companions, but his real troubles begin when he falls asleep. Vivid dreams take hold of his mind, and he assumes a dozen different identities as he gallivants across the US, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, leaving a trail of mayhem in his wake. In turn rent collector, British diplomat, car salesman, stockbroker, travel writer, water engineer and Catholic priest, Jack comes into contact with a host of zany characters, joins a religious sect, goes completely blind while traveling on the London Tube, discovers he has a sister no one knew anything about, and finds himself smack in the middle of a nasty scandal involving a Chicago basketball star and a protection racketeer. His efforts to umpire a cricket match set two Indian villages at each other's throats, and his first celebrity wedding as a rookie priest barely escapes nationally televised melt down. He visits a local drinking hole seeking converts for his sect, has his first taste of "e;Resurrection Soup"e;, and finally wakes up, half naked, in a homeless shelter. Tense tales of human drama, liberally sprinkled with oral and situation humor.

Censorship and Hollywood's Hispanic Image
Author: Alfred Richard
Publisher: Greenwood
ISBN:
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 648
Book Description
Between 1936 and 1955, Hollywood significantly changed its portrayal of Hispanics in motion pictures. This change resulted from the demands of the Production Code Administration, which required film makers to eliminate the more offensive stereotypical Hispanic images. This filmography chronicles all of the Hispanic-related films released during this period. The volume includes entries for nearly four thousand films. The entries are arranged in chapters, with each chapter devoted to a single year. Within the chapters, the entries are listed alphabetically by film title. Each entry includes production information, an annotation detailing the film's Hispanic significance, and references to additional materials. The volume concludes with an alphabetical index of film titles, an index of actors and actresses, an index of place names, a general subject index, and an index of songs. Film historians and scholars of Hispanic culture will find this work to be an indispensable reference tool.
