Book Description
Lee is a regular runner at Oceanside Park, but on one particular morning she is running as fast as she can. In fact, she is running for her life: There is something on the other side of the bushes that is gaining on her, so she is desperately trying to catch up with her friends – or anyone – to get help. When she catches up with Mary and Roberta, whatever it is leaps out of the bushes and drags Roberta down the running path. Roberta mercifully passes out and the women are able to get help, but when the police start asking questions, no one can say if the attacker was man or beast. The police are befuddled and call animal control. Lee’s Run is about friends supporting each other, meeting new friends, romance, and trying to solve a mystery that seemingly has no answer.

Game Changers
Author: Art Chansky
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469630397
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Among many legendary episodes from the life and career of men's basketball coach Dean Smith, few loom as large as his recruitment of Charlie Scott, the first African American scholarship athlete at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Drawn together by college basketball in a time of momentous change, Smith and Scott helped transform a university, a community, and the racial landscape of sports in the South. But there is much more to this story than is commonly told. In Game Changers, Art Chansky reveals an intense saga of race, college sport, and small-town politics. At the center were two young men, Scott and Smith, both destined for greatness but struggling through challenges on and off the court, among them the storms of civil rights protest and the painfully slow integration of a Chapel Hill far less progressive than its reputation today might suggest. Drawing on extensive personal interviews and a variety of other sources, Chansky takes readers beyond the basketball court to highlight the community that supported Smith and Scott during these demanding years, from assistant basketball coach John Lotz and influential pastor the Reverend Robert Seymour to pioneering African American mayor Howard Lee. Dispelling many myths that surround this period, Chansky nevertheless offers an ultimately triumphant portrait of a student-athlete and coach who ensured the University of North Carolina would never be the same.

They Run with Surprising Swiftness
Author: Peter Radford
Publisher: University of Virginia Press
ISBN: 0813947944
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
Women have battled for a place in the male-dominated world of sports throughout the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, overturning obstacles and highlighting the changing position of women in societies around the world. This has become one of the defining stories of our age and the central story of women’s sports. They Run with Surprising Swiftness tells a different and much older, forgotten story with many of the same themes. Sports have never been the sole preserve of men; women athletes have always been there. As this book shows, throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in Britain, women of all ages ran, fought, rode, played football, cricket, tennis, and other sports. They competed in tough, head-to-head events that required extraordinary endurance and skill. Though not labeled "athletic" at the time, these women performed feats that in our age would certainly earn that descriptor. They Run with Surprising Swiftness recognizes these remarkable athletes and their achievements and aims to restore them to their rightful place in the long history of women in sport.
