The Horseman: A Travel Memoir
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Reitter, Bart, PUBLISHER: iUniverse.com, "Robert Louis Stevenson-who understood a thing or two about the selves we refuse to know-once said "I travel not to go anywhere, but to go." Surely it was the likelihood of an accident, the unparalleled joy of stumbling upon himself now and then, which Stevenson most cherished in the going. A bit like Stevenson, Bart Reitter is a man who revels in the great distance between here and there. His memoir The Horseman is a wonderful account of the selves forged and found during his travels across the first half of a lifetime-a heartfelt testament to the wisdom of refusing to stand still." --Professor Greg Col n Semenza, University of Connecticut "For those who have ever spent time on the road for a living this book will awaken memories-some fond, some downright scary. It's the diary of a young man plying his trade as he jets around the world while climbing the corporate ladder. Bart Reitter writes in exacting detail. A delightful read." --Thomas J. Gibbons Jr. Retired Staff Writer, Philadelphia Inquirer "The Horseman is an excellent story about one man's travels. The book drew me in and I found myself reading longer than I had allowed for. Reitter's enthusiasm for travel has rekindled my own excitement for the many business trips I have planned for this year." --Rich Dibernardo, President, Initech, LLC "Reading The Horseman brought back fond memories of my travels with Bart. I also have been infected with the travel bug and the cure is to get me on the next flight to anywhere." --John Lin, Senior Territory Sales Manager For author Bart Reitter, the journey is the destination. In this travelogue, he narrates his lifelong journey of discovery through travel. Written with stark clarity and emotional honesty, "The Horseman" begins with a six-year-old boy's first joyful trip to Disney World and concludes with a -mile circumnavigation of the globe. Compiled from journals kept while traveling the world and interwoven with personal reflection and unique historical perspective, "The Horseman" voyages through the joys and frustration of global travel as well as the introspection aimed at understanding life's meaning. It presents an emotional, scientific, funny, and irreverent window into Reitter's mind as he seeks to understand the insatiable wanderlust that drives him forward. From the eastern United States to Singapore, and from the streets of Paris to the jungles of Thailand, Reitter communicates a unique point of view of life on the road that pictures rarely tell. From the euphoria of successful business deals to the loneliness of sterile hotel rooms, the story is never boring. In the end, with the help of his daughters, he discovers the best journey of all is the journey home.
Effect of a Whisper
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: O'Shea, J. Scott, PUBLISHER: Dog Ear Publishing, In, Effect of a Whisper, Josh Greeley has made his decision on the next step in this life-fate chose otherwise. When the chaos of the world quiets down you can begin to truly listen to what is being said. What follows is one man's fight to remember any memories that may give him a future. It took Josh 29 years to get to today, but a single phone call and bad timing changed it all in an instant. It was in this instant, precisely, that a vibrant, intelligent, young man would lose so much. Life is frail, even for a mature man who has overcome life's challenges, and poor timing, only to succumb to another's actions. With the news of a dear uncle's plight and his own bizarre, violent, car crash, Josh's spirituality tells him there are no accidents. Caught between personal suffering, and the mourning of another, Josh must find his way. From out of the darkness to the confines of bed, there come dreams, visions, and ultimately, a realization there is a deeper reasoning for his fate, one that medicine cannot disguise, nor explain. More appropriately, reasoning may lie within a vow, or a prayer with his fading uncle. Or.was it God? Josh walks away from his accident unscathed, but has a gift bestowed upon him that will grow in strength. Coming to terms with this burden, he pieces profound visions and insights together, and so, discovers the purpose of his pain, and finally-his existence. Hesitantly, he learns to listen to the thoughts coming from beyond him to make sense of it all, as death waits for him to weaken. Careful Something that you ask for can come true by unimaginable ways. J. Scott O'Shea currently resides in Kansas City alongside some of his immediate family. Scott was born inthe small town of Westmoreland, Kansas in . He was thereafter raised in Paxico, Kansas during the remainder of his childhood. He went on to attend Washburn University in the City of Topeka, Kansas, where he lived during the development of this work. Aimlessly searching for his calling through college and beyond, he frequented various careers, aside from ending up a wandering, nervous actor, and a short-lived entrepreneur. As it ended up, the last two endeavors took him to where this story began. Effect of a Whisper is the first book in J. Scott O'Shea's promising writing career. It is a story he was first reluctant to write then hesitant to share. The events, which he conveys, began only as a record for his voided memories. Consequently, he struggled with the reason, and the push to unleash his story onto others. It is his sincerest wish that others amongst us can gain an understanding, and find hope where they could not find it before.

A Football Band of Brothers: Forging the University of
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Porter, W. Thomas, PUBLISHER: Trafford Publishing, Almost fifty years ago, a group of student-athletes entered the University of Washington. As freshmen, they were not eligible to play varsity football so they began their collegiate football on a frosh team that went unbeaten against Northwest opponents. Most members of the team played both offense and defense. Some had to work part-time to finance their education. The single ones lived with other students in dormitories and fraternity houses. Some were married and had children. In , Washington had been rocked by a player revolt which led to the firing of the head football coach. Disgruntled, he exposed a slush fund used by zealous boosters to directly pay players more than the Pacific Coast Conference allowed. The Husky athletic program was put on probation for two years along with Cal, UCLA and USC. It was a difficult period for a once proud and successful program. Thirty-one year old George Briggs was hired as Athletic Director to clean up the mess and hire a new coach. Darrell Royal, a former All-America quarterback for the Oklahoma Sooners and the head coach at Mississippi State, accepted a four-year contract in and started the Husky football program on the road to recovery. Royal's tenure was brief. After the season ended, Royal resigned to take his dream job at the University of Texas where he had a very successful career which included three national championships. Briggs then hired 29-year old Jim Owens, a teammate of Royal and an All-America end. He had been a top assistant under Bear Bryant at Kentucky and Texas A&M. He was one of the architects of the "Junction Boys" ten days in hell that forged the Aggies' conference championship threeyears later. Owens and his staff brought a philosophy that included an emphasis on team unity, defense, tough physical and mental conditioning, the use of the helmet to tackle and block and punish opponents, and a willingness to pay the price for success. In , the Huskies were mostly a bunch of sophomores - supposedly the youngest college team in America - and went 3-7. Over the next two years, the Huskies forged the second best record of a collegiate football team in America - 20 wins and two losses. With 20 victories, one tie, and one loss, only Mississippi had a better resume. In , they won the conference title, the first for Washington since , and upset heavily favored Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl, 44-8. It was Washington's first Rose Bowl victory and brought respectability back to West Coast football. Shortly after that game, Bud Wilkinson, Jim Owens' former coach, called to congratulate his former pupil on the stunning victory. He said, "It would be hard to find a club anywhere, anytime, that played a 60-miniute period any better than that team that day." In the season, despite injuries to many key players including All-America quarterback and Hesiman hopeful, Bob Schloredt, the then senior-laden tea
