The Cubs Reader

Fulk, David

Houghton/Mifflin

As John Cheever declared, "all literary men are Red Sox fans" -and certainly no baseball team has inspired more eloquence than the storied Sox. The best of those stories reside here, celebrating the team's highs, from the pennant races through the careers of Williams, Yaz, and Boggs, and eulogizing its most poignant lows, from the loss of Ruth to the ball that rolled through Buckner's legs.

The human journey is an emotional quest to find truth and meaning. Countless books have presented this journey through the eyes of people who concluded their search with devotion to God, salvation by Jesus, or commitment to religion. But there's a changing zeitgeist in America and the world: a growing number of people are finding truth and meaning from the opposite perspective. Through 25 personal narratives, Generation Atheist tells their stories. The people in this book come from different religious upbringings, races, sexual orientations, and genders. Many have gone through very emotional journeys in coming to a sustained, open atheistic worldview. Most were quite religious at one point in their lives. Through the internet, humanity is engaged in a global conversation unlike any before in history -- about who we are, why we are here, and how we should live -- and these individuals have an important perspective to share. generationatheistbook.com

Dan Riley

In memoirs, poems, and essays, Dan Riley tells the story of a life both serendipitous and gratifying, from grammar school to post-retirement. He spins tales of a teenage copyboy in a big city newsroom, life aboard a landing ship in the Pacific during WW II,  anecdotes of his golfing life, experiences as a hospice volunteer, a tribute to his wife Elaine, and the lasting memory of high school days. A dog-lover extraordinaire, his stores present a nostalgic and sometimes humorous account of the life of one of the rapidly diminishing “Greatest Generation.”
