Essential information and outrageous anecdotes...a must-read for every true Washington sports fan that showcases the long-standing rivalries, quirky characters and memorable moments of both amateur and pro sports in Washington State: * Mariners Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr. were the first father-son duo to play together on the same major-league team; they also hit back-to-back homers * Sports Illustrated once called bowling's first Million Dollar Man, Earl Anthony of Tacoma, "the second greatest athlete from the state of Washington," behind only the great John Stockton of Zags and Utah Jazz * In 1930, Orin E. "Babe" Hollingbery led the WSU Cougars football team to the Rose Bowl, their last appearance in that bowl game for 67 years * Seattle Sounders FC midfielder Freddie Ljungberg is perhaps as famous for modeling Calvin Klein underwear as he is for his work on the soccer field * At the 1936 Berlin Olympics, the UW Huskies rowing crew took gold medals in shocking victories over the Germans and Italians, much to the ire of Adolf Hitler * Only in Seattle could an indoor NBA game get rained out--on January 5, 1986, the Sonics were playing the Phoenix Suns at the aging, leaky Seattle Center Coliseum. * And much more.
Your Complete Tome of Fantasy CreaturesMonsters from the aberrant to the yellow musk zombie appear in this book, and everything in between--that's over 700 monsters. But that's not all; the appendices bring just as much to the table from templates to hazards to a treatise on poison variations in nearly 50 types of venomous snakes. There are also new feats, planes of existence, strange beings beyond mortal ken, and plenty of charts dividing the compiled monsters by level, type, and terrain.
The authors of Four Green Fields have gone above and beyond on their promise to bring us "wild Irish banter and craic." They have literally thrown open the doors of their collective closets and introduced us to the family skeletons, put flesh back on their bones and made them dance Not only do we get a glimpse into the wacky world of their Irish upbringing, but we are introduced to fathers, grandfathers and uncles - utterly devoid of any sense of political correctness - who at times went about their daily lives oblivious to the havoc they wreaked around them, but at other times knew full well the embarrassment they were causing their families.

This book examines the changing nature of opposition to bidding for and hosting the Olympic Games in contemporary American cities. It explores and critiques the process by which cities bid for the Olympics in the current context of the International Olympic Committee’s changing bid requirements and from the social justice perspectives of Olympics opponents.

Post-boxes, vegetables, boots, bricks and bawds - a volume of verse
J. Greg Deane
Independently Published

Mr Deane is no stranger to the 21st century. He is not intimidated by contemporary themes, although his greatest delight, and perhaps his greatest achievement in verse is evidently poetry that is set in mediaeval times, notably his epic work, The Monastic Adventures of Polonius. This inspired work may strike the reader with its comic ambience, its jovial jeering and its ribald implications. But the reader who only recognised these qualities would rob himself of a much more moving, spiritual experience in this journey of hope and quest for salvation wherein the eponymous hero must deal with opposition from all sides, gradually winning acknowledgement for his learning and compassion, only to meet with a final betrayal in the one creature whose trust he had reason to believe he had won.

Zadig the cartwright, Fatima the washerwoman and Arcad the euergetist in Babylon: with an introduction by Gregoire Diderot du Lac
J. Greg Deane

Mr. Deane's ingenious work could be described as an extended litotes, a hilarious river of paradoxes. While reading this witty work of cynical compassion, there are few who would fail to recall the speech pivotal speech from Voltaire's Zadig, the maladroit, innocent anti-hero who said, "The bad ones are always unhappy: they serve to test a few fair ones scattered on earth; and there is no evil which does not result a good." If Fran ois-Marie Arouet had known his wise pseudo-misanthropy would be complemented with a similarly sensitive work some three hundred years later he would have given up the ghost with even greater equanimity than he did. But there is one important point of difference between Voltaire's work and Mr. Deane's masterpiece. Whereas the original Zadig is a sympathetic character, if innocent and gullible, the latter Zadig is as flawed as any of the euergetists and Utopian Optimists who populate the pages of Zadig the cartwright, Fatima the washerwoman and Arcad the euergetist in Babylon . One could argue that Mr. Deane is a braver cynic than Voltaire because he does not offer redemption through a single likeable character. His priests, viziers, warriors, vegetable farmers, butchers, homosexual prostitutes and arms dealers are all self-serving scoundrels. Despite there attempts at success which drives them incessantly and relentlessly, all their efforts are in vain, though they lack Voltaire's insight to confess, "The more I read, the more I acquire, the more certain I am that I know nothing." One might have a tentative sympathy with two the novel's swarthy eunuchs, but even that fades. Mr. Deane is not the type of timid author who needs heroic protagonists, even if the sum of his characters provide a corporate sense of community so that in combination they are less despicable than they are individually. Anyone of them could echo Voltaire's Zadig who says "The opportunity to do evil appears hundred times a day and to do good, once a year, says Zoroaster," but not one of them would take advantage of that opportunity even once a year. Voltaire's Zadig does observe, "Love itself is a wind filled balloon, which leaves storms when it receives a pinprick." But Mr. Deane's characters go even further, taking his misanthropy to the ultimate, regarding love, friendship and loyalty as diseases of the mind and signs of self-destructive weakness. This hilarious and insightful sequel to Voltaire is without compromise. It has a powerfully honest book, though the author values truth as much more precious than do either his euergetists or Utopian Optimists. It is not a work for the faint-hearted, but it is a treasure chest of sage delight for those who are brave enough to delve into it.
