Skateboarding legend Jay Adams s sudden and unexpected death at the age of fifty-three shocked the world. Media outlets including the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, the Hollywood Reporter, ESPN, MTV, the Telegraph, and People magazine to name only a few, paid tribute to Jay Adams; the broad coverage he received speaks to the immense influence Adams had on the sport of skateboarding and the subsequent culture he helped grow and shape. Universe is pleased to bring back into print the little-known book of photographs of Jay Adams s earliest days as a surfer and skateboarder, taken by his stepfather Kent Sherwood.

Jay Boy is an endearing, intimate look at the gifted Adams and his friends, and includes sweet and revealing thoughts about his past, written in his own hand before he passed away.

Jay Cooke's Gamble

Jay Cooke's Gamble

M. John Lubetkin

University of Oklahoma Press
2014
nidottu
In 1869, Jay Cooke, the brilliant but idiosyncratic American banker, decided to finance the Northern Pacific, a transcontinental railroad planned from Duluth, Minnesota, to Seattle. M. John Lubetkin tells how Cooke's gamble reignited war with the Sioux, rescued George Armstrong Custer from obscurity, created Yellowstone Park, pushed frontier settlement four hundred miles westward, and triggered the Panic of 1873. Staking his reputation and wealth on the Northern Pacific, Cooke was soon whipsawed by the railroad's mismanagement, questionable contracts, and construction problems. Financier J. P. Morgan undermined him, and the Crédit Mobilier scandal ended congressional support. When railroad surveyors and army escorts ignored Sioux chief Sitting Bull's warning not to enter the Yellowstone Valley, Indian attacks - combined with alcoholic commanders - led to embarrassing setbacks on the field, in the nation's press, and among investors. Lubetkin's suspenseful narrative describes events played out from Wall Street to the Yellowstone and vividly portrays the soldiers, engineers, businessmen, politicians, and Native Americans who tried to build or block the Northern Pacific.

Dear Jay, Love Dad

Dear Jay, Love Dad

Jay Wilkinson; Mike Krzyzewski

University of Oklahoma Press
2014
nidottu
College football fans need no introduction to Bud Wilkinson, but few of them know the great University of Oklahoma football coach as a devoted father. In Dear Jay, Love Bud, Jay Wilkinson, Bud's younger son, shares forty-seven letters his father wrote to him while he was in college and graduate school. Spanning the early to mid-1960s, these letters reveal Bud's deep love for his son, as well as the philosophy and values that led to his remarkable success in sports and in life.Beginning with the first letter Bud wrote when Jay left home, this collection shows a father guiding his son toward his own path while stressing the importance of service to others. The embodiment of the scholar-athlete, Bud mixes encouragement with intellectual discussions. When Jay reads American philosopher William James for a class at Duke University, his father, a serious student of literature, reads the book, too, and uses its insights to help Jay deal with the challenges of his freshman year. Bud writes about his own challenges, as well, including his debate over whether to accept the Kennedy administration's invitation to head the President's Council on Physical Fitness. Jay's comments about each of these letters provide context and further insight.By the time Jay becomes a graduate student at the Episcopal Theological School, the correspondence turns toward religion and politics, as Bud reflects on the philosophical issues of the day and on his unsuccessful run for the U.S. Senate in 1964. His belief that the greatest leaders are not always the most popular made him an unlikely politician even then, but a wonderful role model and interlocutor for his son. Bud's thoughts on ethics in business and politics are as inspiring today as when he wrote them a half-century ago.

Jay Hawk: The Assassin's Lover

Jay Hawk: The Assassin's Lover

Sean Eagan

Connecticut Yankee International, Inc.
2012
nidottu
If you liked ARGO, the Oscar-winning best picture of the year, you'll like Jay Hawk: The Assassin's Lover. Tony Mendez, ehe real-life character played by Ben Affleck, tutored the author at CIA HQ to refine this extensively researched story of agonizing personal choices, individual responsibility and unintended consequences. New to the big city, fresh off the Kansas farm, and fleeing an abusive marriage, Britt Jaeger lands a dream job and becomes the prot g of Mackenzie Collingwood, a brilliant, elegant, and fabulously rich international financier, who grooms her for success not only in business but also the secret world where Wall Street intersects with the shared intelligence network that links Western Allies with the Mossad. When Iranian agents set a complicated trap to crack the West's most sensitive and vital intelligence system, Britt is kidnapped and held for her strategic information and the stage is set for an action packed, international thriller with a newly empowered female protagonist who rises to the MISSION IMPOSSIBLE situation and works feverishly to thwart the Iranian plot as it quickly unfolds in New York, London, Athens, Tehran and Tel Aviv. Framed against real world geopolitical threats-Jay Hawk is a story as current as tomorrow's headlines. Praise for the eBook edition of Jay Hawk: The Assassin's Lover excerpted from reviews on Amazon and Smashwords: *****"This one hooks you early. A page turner." ***** "...Everything that a suspense/mystery fan likes in a story. Action, adventure and a little romance thrown in for good measure. This was definitely a page turner...as I was reading I kept telling myself I needed to get some sleep." ***** " Haven't read a book I couldn't put down in a while. Not only the intrigue of espionage and compelling romance but so well researched it feels like something you might read in the NYT or WSJ." *****"Action thrillers like this are not my first choice as a genre, but I couldn't put this book down. The four strong women were fabulous but flawed, nuanced and complex." *****"It was hard for me to believe that a male author was able to portray women with such an authentic voice. This novel is going to be my Christmas gift to quite a few friends. Don't miss it " *****"You will be fascinated with these women as you learn their stories and interactions with each other. BJ was especially likeable as a woman who didn't realize how strong she really was until faced with adversity." *****"A page turner from the start, The Assassin's Lover challenges the reader's knowledge of politics, history, geography, and culture while taking her a journey of wonder and excitement."

Jim Wagner

PEN SWORD BOOKS LTD

At the start of 1967, Jim Wagner shipped out to Vietnam. As a UH-1D Huey crew chief and door gunner, Wagner was part of the 9th Aviation Battalion that would ferry infantry of the 9th Infantry Division into and out of combat in III Corps Tactical Zone in the Mekong Delta in South Vietnam. Interdicting the movements of Viet Cong kept Wagner and his unit in near constant combat with the author accumulating over 1800 air hours on combat operations. Day to day, Wagner flew direct support, combat assault, medical Evac, or low level aerial recon missions for platoon or company sized elements of the 9th Division. Wagner experienced it all, from the surreal of flying over Nancy Sinatra at a USO concert to secret missions flying special forces across the border into Cambodia to the Tet Offensive.
