Free Download Jim Collins, "The Last Best League: One Summer, One Season, One Dream"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 0306823101, 0738209015 | EPUB | pages: 336 | 2.1 mb
Every summer, in ten small towns across Cape Cod, young college baseball players showcase their talents in hopes of making it to the "show." A vicious filter, the league has produced one out of every six major league players, from Nomar Garciaparra and Todd Helton to Jeff Bagwell and Barry Zito.In this brilliantly crafted narrative, Jim Collins chronicles a season in the life of the Chatham A’s, perhaps the most celebrated team in the Cape Cod Baseball League. Set against a seemingly bucolic backdrop-a well-heeled resort town on the bend of the outer Cape – the story charts the changing fortunes of a handful of players, all of whom battle slumps and self-doubt in an effort to impress major league scouts and make the playoffs. Several players go home with career-threatening injuries; one blue-chip prospect fulfills great expectations while another is dubbed "the biggest disappointment on the Cape." A pitcher hides an arm injury while negotiating a minor league contract; another leaves early to tend to his dying father. And nearly all look to the following year’s major league draft as a barometer of their worth. Far more than a baseball book, The Last Best League is an engrossing story about dreams fulfilled and dreams destroyed, about Cape Cod and the rites of summer, about coming of age in America.

Free Download Celia E. Rothenberg, "Serious Fun at a Jewish Community Summer Camp: Family, Judaism, and Israel"
English | ISBN: 1498540775 | 2016 | 144 pages | EPUB | 23 MB
Unique in the literature on Jewish camping, this book provides an in-depth study of a community-based, residential summer camp that serves Jewish children from primarily rural areas. Focused on Camp Ben Frankel (CBF), established in 1950 in southern Illinois, this book focuses on how a pluralist Jewish camp constructs meaningful experiences of Jewish "family" and Judaism for campers-and teaches them about Israel. Inspired by models of the earliest camps established for Jewish children in urban areas, CBF’s founders worked to create a camp that would appeal to the rural, often isolated Jewish families in its catchment area. Although seemingly on the periphery of American Jewish life, CBF staff and campers are revealed to be deeply entwined with national developments in Jewish culture and practice and, indeed, contributors to shaping them. This research highlights the importance of campers’ experiences of traditional elements of the Jewish "family" (an experience increasingly limited to time at camp), as well as the overarching importance of song.

Free Download Samantha Michaels, "BBQ Cookbooks: Make Your Summer Go With A Bang! A Simple Guide To Barbecuing"
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1628840102, ASIN: B00GAPU9WS | EPUB | pages: 54 | 0.2 mb
With barbecue being one of the most popular summer activities, it is no wonder that there are so many different BBQ cookbooks to be found. But how many times have you had to jump from one book to the other because neither of them contains all the recipes that you need? How many times did you end up ordering guides labeled as the best BBQ cookbooks, only to be presented with a bunch of recipes nobody really even likes? True barbecue fans find this to be a great source of discomfort, which is part of the reason I wrote Make your Summer Go with a Bang!. Before getting in greater detail about my book, I’d first like to introduce myself. I am Samantha Michaels, and after living in this world for over thirty-four years, I have made a name for myself (at least locally) as a professional cook. While some professional cooks tend to stick to the rules, I prefer to take a more free-spirited approach to the matter and think outside the box; in other words, I love experimenting with different ingredients and recipes, focusing on how to make healthy meals which are easy and simply enough to prepare for those who don’t cook regularly. Over time I mulled over countless different barbecue recipes; just as many of them were pulled from the top BBQ cookbooks as from my own imagination. After making those recipes summer after summer, I managed to narrow down the best and most popular recipes… I narrowed it down to seventy, to be more precise. As you can probably guess at this point, that list of the best seventy recipes served as the basis for writing this cookbook. So what precisely can one expect to get from the book? Well, just like all the simple BBQ cookbooks out there do, I decided to get straight to the point: the book contains the afore-mentioned seventy recipes and precise instructions on how to make them. The ingredients and possible substitutes are all listed for your convenience, and the cooking instructions take you through a comprehensive step-by-step process which leaves little to no room for error. You are going to learn seventy different ways of cooking meat and vegetables on the grill, and I guarantee that the recipes are easy to make and are actually quite healthy, if consumed in moderation of course. In other words, this is one of the few truly healthy BBQ cookbooks out there; every recipe was tested personally (and on other human subjects) for safety and deliciousness. All in all, if you were looking to put together a catalog of healthy and easy BBQ Cookbooks, then you should really spare yourself the trouble and Make your Summer go with a Bang! by getting a readily-available compilation of seventy recipes you’ll be sure to try over and over again. I’m not going to boast any further and claim that you won’t ever need to spend anything on BBQ cookbooks in the future as you can make that assertion for yourself right away as the book is available on Kindle.

Free Download Alfred Price – Battle of Britain: A Summer of Reckoning
Ian Allan | 2010 | ISBN: 1906537135 | English | 152 pages | PDF | 171.46 MB
Dr. Alfred Price, who is a recognized and respected authority on the Battle of Britain, recounts the story of the conflict, both in terms of the strategic and tactical battle between two mighty air forces of the day and the fascinating and often traumatic human element as the civilians of Britain faced the reality of German invasion. The book starts with the skirmishes across the Channel in the opening phase of the battle, July 10 through August 12, testing Britain’s defenses, then the Luftwaffe’s main assault on the airfields and radar installations of Southern England from August 12 to September 6, when it attempted to knock out the RAF. The turning point came when the Luftwaffe, faced with mounting losses, shifted its focus to London and other cities in early September in a final attempt to break Britain’s morale, giving the RAF much-needed breathing space to build up its strength and counter the enemy.
