Mike Hargrove and the Cleveland Indians: A Baseball Life
An inside, in-depth look at a fascinating baseball life ... There were spectacular highs--Rookie of the Year, All Star, World Series ... And devastating lows--the end of his playing days, a tragic accident in his second year as manager, a heartbreaker in the World Series, being fired from the job he loved ... Mike Hargrove truly spent a lifetime in baseball. From the sandlots of tiny Perryton, Texas, to the biggest stage, Game 7 of the World Series, he played, coached, managed ... lived the game for four decades. The Cleveland Indians were at the center of Hargrove's baseball life for more than 20 years. He played for some mediocre Indians teams in the 1980s. He managed some of the best Indians teams ever in the 1990s--including five consecutive division titles, one of the most powerful offensive lineups in baseball history (Lofton, Belle, Baerga, Murray, Thome, Ramirez) and two trips to the World Series. Not bad for a kid who didn't play baseball in high school, was a walk-on in college and an afterthought 25th-round draft pick.**** One constant in Hargrove's roller-coaster career: Sharon Hargrove. Their 50-year marriage in an unsteady business (from 1970 to 1995, the Hargroves lived in 23 different houses) is inspiring. This book takes a close-up look at a life and career long under-appreciated--by us, not by him--perhaps because much of it was spent in the shadows of so many big personalities. But Hargrove's story includes big moments--both heartbreaking and heart-stopping.

Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse KBE (15 October 1881 - 14 February 1975) was an English author and one of the most widely read humorists of the 20th century. Born in Guildford, the third son of a British magistrate based in Hong Kong, Wodehouse spent happy teenage years at Dulwich College, to which he remained devoted all his life. After leaving school, he was employed by a bank but disliked the work and turned to writing in his spare time. His early novels were mostly school stories, but he later switched to comic fiction, creating several regular characters who became familiar to the public over the years. They include the jolly gentleman of leisure Bertie Wooster and his sagacious valet Jeeves; the immaculate and loquacious Psmith; Lord Emsworth and the Blandings Castle set; the Oldest Member, with stories about golf; and Mr Mulliner, with tall tales on subjects ranging from bibulous bishops to megalomaniac movie moguls.Most of Wodehouse's fiction is set in England, although he spent much of his life in the US and used New York and Hollywood as settings for some of his novels and short stories. He wrote a series of Broadway musical comedies during and after the First World War, together with Guy Bolton and Jerome Kern, that played an important part in the development of the American musical. He began the 1930s writing for MGM in Hollywood. In a 1931 interview, his na ve revelations of incompetence and extravagance in the studios caused a furore. In the same decade, his literary career reached a new peak.Wodehouse worked extensively on his books, sometimes having two or more in preparation simultaneously. He would take up to two years to build a plot and write a scenario of about thirty thousand words. After the scenario was complete he would write the story. Early in his career he would produce a novel in about three months, but he slowed in old age to around six months. He used a mixture of Edwardian slang, quotations from and allusions to numerous poets, and several literary techniques to produce a prose style that has been compared to comic poetry and musical comedy. Some critics of Wodehouse have considered his work flippant, but among his fans are former British prime ministers and many of his fellow writers. (wikipedia.org)

Sometimes it takes a lifetime to discover the importance of your faith. It can be a long and difficult journey for many. Nothing is more important than your faith. Believing that there is a God who loves you and whose mercy will save you in the end is essential to achieving your inner peace and happiness.Both faith and wisdom evolve. Our concept of God as children is quite different from the one that we embrace during young adulthood, let alone old age. Wisdom is achieved through the school of hard knocks and in making all the right and wrong decisions in your life. You get knocked down a lot, but you stay in the game. Something bigger than you pulls you through the tough times.I could not have written this narrative thirty years ago, let alone five years ago. Most of my life has been taken up with work and raising my family. My life has been filled with many blessings, as well as many failures and personal setbacks. I have dealt with tragedy, as well as joy. I have let people down and once in a while lifted someone up.Faith is a gift from God. Faith is trust. Seeing something in our physical world makes it a reality to us. Not seeing something, but believing it still exists, requires trust. A lot of people thrive on their self-reliance. They do things their way. That's fine. But when the stiff winds come into our lives to try to blow us off course, we need to be able to stay on our feet. The inner strength we need to survive these storms comes from our faith.
