Larry Kwong became the first player of Asian descent in the NHL when he played one shift with the New York Rangers in 1948. Even though Larry's achievement happened more than 70 years ago, his contribution to hockey is only now being recognized. He broke hockey's color barrier and fought racism and discrimination at every step of his career. From his humble beginnings on the outdoor rinks in Vernon, British Columbia's Chinatown all the way to playing at Madison Square Garden and in the NHL, this inspiring hero has a timeless story for young readers. The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.

The first African-American aircraft carrier commander, Rear Admiral Lawrence Cleveland Chambers (1929- ) played a prominent role as captain of the USS Midway during the Vietnam War. During the evacuation of Saigon--known as Operation Frequent Wind--he famously ordered several UH-1 helicopters pushed overboard to make room for an escaping South Vietnamese Air Force major to land his Cessna. Chambers, who had only commanded Midway for a few weeks, gave the order believing (wrongly) that he would be court-martialed for the $10 million loss. This biography covers his early life and military career, including his role in the desegregation of the U.S. Navy during a period racial strife.

Beloved and respected poet, Larry Kuntze, writes from his home south of Jackson, Missouri, where he enjoys his retirement with his wife, Loretta. Larry tenderly observes the deeper richness of life, along with the sacred ironies that befall us all, often noting the unseen and gracious infusion of God's mercy as we travel along this journey we call, "life." Larry's poetry offers a unique perspective originating from the depth of his life and faith, his work and his most cherished relationships. He is a poet, a gentleman, and most of all, a friend.
