Life in the Fast Lane
Author: Chris Stoddart
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1039146503
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
In the late 1960s, a new sport emerged in Canada that would change the lives of many people: wheelchair sports. In Life in the Fast Lane, Chris Stoddart recounts the rise of wheelchair racing, with him as one of its pioneers. Born with spina bifida—a condition that affects the development of the spine—Stoddart witnessed the extraordinary transformation of the wheelchair from a heavy and unwieldy functional contraption to a light and sleek design meant for the racetrack. From his beginnings as a wheelchair basketball player to his evolution into a three-time Paralympian and fifty-mile marathon racer, Stoddart shares his life journey as it parallels Canada’s rise in wheelchair sports. With a matter-of-fact but approachable tone, Stoddart shines a light on the many veterans of wheelchair sports who may have been forgotten over the years. Most notably, however, is this athlete’s dedication to people who live with disabilities. During his successful career as an amateur athlete, Stoddart worked for the War Amps of Canada for almost thirty years. Learn about the history of wheelchair racing in Canada, where we stand today, and what we need to do to make sure people with disabilities share the spotlight with able-bodied athletes.

Escapades of a Catholic Boy from Brooklyn
Author: Artie Mangravito
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 163661499X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Escapades of a Catholic Boy from Brooklyn By: Artie Mangravito I considered myself lucky as a child because although I was the only cousin, in a slew of cousins that did not have at least one sibling, I was privileged to have spent many sleepovers at Grandma and Grandpa Natoli’s house due to the fact that my parents enjoyed an active social life. Most Friday and Saturday evenings they could be found dancing it up with their friends at the Copacabana, a popular night club in Manhattan. So, I was deposited into the hands of Grandma Jean. I never really thought much about the fact that my mother and father chose to spend this time away from me. I did not think that I was that much trouble, but I suppose we all needed a break. I came to enjoy the extra special attention that I received from my grandmother, something that my cousins rarely experienced. It was rare for the entire family not to be at Grandma and Grandpa Natoli’s house for Sunday and holiday dinners. Aunts, uncles, and cousins all descended upon the house on 36th street. Mom’s siblings ranged from four older sisters and one older brother to one younger. Because she was the youngest daughter, she had it easier than her elder sisters. All Mom had to do was to devote her time to her education. This was something not stressed in most immigrant families. Escapades of a Catholic Boy from Brooklyn details Artie’s youth in Brooklyn, experiences in Catholic school, and his never-ending adventures.
