This lovable new series introduces a little dog with a GIANT personality! Fenway is an excitable and endlessly energetic Jack Russell terrier.

He's pretty pleased with the huge Dog Park behind his new home, but he's not so happy about the Evil Squirrels that taunt him from the trees, the super-slippery Wicked Floor in the Eating Room, and the changes that have come over Hattie lately.

His friends in the Dog Park next door say Hattie is outgrowing him, but that can't be right. And he's going to prove it! Get a dog's-eye view of the world in this heartwarming, enthusiastic "tail" about two best friends.

Tom Yawkey
Author: Bill Nowlin
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 1496204417
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
2019 SABR Baseball Research Award Few people have influenced a team as much as did Tom Yawkey (1903–76) as owner of the Boston Red Sox. After purchasing the Red Sox for $1.2 million in 1932, Yawkey poured millions into building a better team and making the franchise relevant again. Although the Red Sox never won a World Series under Yawkey’s ownership, there were still many highlights. Lefty Grove won his three hundredth game; Jimmie Foxx hit fifty home runs; Ted Williams batted .406 in 1941, and both Williams and Carl Yastrzemski won Triple Crowns. Yawkey was viewed by fans as a genial autocrat who ran his ball club like a hobby more than a business and who spoiled his players. He was perhaps too trusting, relying on flawed cronies rather than the most competent executives to run his ballclub. One of his more unfortunate legacies was the accusation that he was a racist, since the Red Sox were the last Major League team to integrate, and his inaction in this regard haunted both him and the team for decades. As one of the last great patriarchal owners in baseball, he was the first person elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame who hadn’t been a player, manager, or general manager. Bill Nowlin takes a close look at Yawkey’s life as a sportsman and as one of the leading philanthropists in New England and South Carolina. He also addresses Yawkey’s leadership style and issues of racism during his tenure with the Red Sox.

Acknowledged Legislator
Author: Edward J. Carvalho
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1611476429
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
Acknowledged Legislator: Critical Essays on the Poetry of Martín Espada stands as the first-ever collection of essays on poet and activist Martín Espada. It is also, to date, the only published book-length, single-author study of Espada currently in existence. Relying on innovative, highly original contributions from thirteen Espada scholars, its principal aim is to argue for a long overdue critical awareness of and cultural appreciation for Espada and his body of writing. Acknowledged Legislator accomplishes this task in three fundamental ways: by providing readers with background information on the poet’s life and work; offering an examination into the subject matter and dominant themes that are frequently contained in his writing; and finally, by advocating, in a variety of ways, for why we should be reading, discussing, and teaching the Espada canon. Divided into four distinct sections that modulate through several theoretical frames—from Espada’s attention to resistance poetics and concerns for historical memory to his oppositional critique of neoliberalism and support for a class consciousness grounded in labor rights—Acknowledged Legislator offers a cohesive, forward-thinking interpretive statement of the poet’s vision and proposes a critical (re)assessment for how we read Espada, now and in the future.

The Soul of Fenway
Author: S. j. Wilson
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 1608448134
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
S.J. Wilson lives in Massachusetts and has worked as a farmhand, pie maker, radio dispatcher, telemarketer (briefly and with apologies), receptionist, kindergarten teacher, and at long last and most sweetly, a writer. From The Soul of Fenway: On the horizon, the sun was an orange ball of hell. The heat of another summer day waited for her, ready to wrench her back through summers gone by, finally screeching to a halt in 1967. Even if she could stop dreaming about Nate, the summer would still come around to haunt her. It wasn't until after he was dead that she realized how much he looked like summer. The August sky matched the blue of his eyes and his hair was the color of native corn. She'd only known him with a tan and she remembered his skin, always golden-brown and smelling of Coppertone(r). And he lived for this season, when long hot days reached into the night, when everything was baseball and youthful optimism. He was summer. And God, she hated it.
