Baseball's Starry Night gives you a fan's-eye view of a night that many have called the most exciting night in the history of Major League Baseball. Going beyond a standard retelling of the balls and strikes and homers and webgems, the book hears from 20 fans in their own words. Loyal fans of the St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, and Tampa Bay Rays provide exciting and deeply personal eyewitness accounts -- either from the stadiums or their living rooms. Get the "you-are-there" feeling. “This is a magical book about a magical night. This beautifully told story captures baseball at its very best.” Doris Kearns Goodwin “September 28, 2011. It was a night that will forever be frozen in baseball time. A night of miracles. A night of magic. A night of heartbreak. A night for the history books. Somebody needed to write a book about that night. Thankfully, Paul Kocak volunteered for the job. And in this beautifully written book, he takes us not merely inside the astonishing ups and downs of this unforgettable evening, but inside the hearts and minds of ‘ordinary’ people -- the fans whose pulse rates haven’t come down yet.” Jayson Stark, ESPN.com Senior Baseball Writer “A retelling unlike any other of the greatest night in baseball regular-season history.” Chris Mallonee, BirdsOnTheBat82.com “With Baseball’s Starry Night, Paul Kocak captures an unforgettable moment in time in powerful, passionate prose that will bring fans to their feet all over again.” Greg Tobin, former editor-in-chief of Book-of-the-Month Club, Inc. and author of Holy Holidays! “Paul Kocak hits an ‘inside the park homer.’ What a night!” Len Berman, Sportscaster/Author

During early 1975, Ed Parker Sr. undertook to complete another masterful work on a specific Martial Arts topic--the Nunchaku. Made famous by the late Bruce Lee in the motion picture "Enter the Dragon" and often referred to as "chucks" or "Karate sticks", Ed shared a history of this man made weapon, for the first time. Acknowledged by the Martial arts weapons expert Tadashi Yamashita, as the "best book on the subject, it should be on the bookshelf of every Karateka." Curtis Wong, publisher of the internationally acclaimed "Inside Kung-Fu" Magazine said it was "a must for all practitioners." After a brief introductory history of the nunchaku, Ed elaborated on the need for modern day adaptations of this ancient agricultural implement. Revealing for the first time, his own dynamic nunchaku techniques, with catches and movements capable of creating one startling impact after another. Fantastic Kenpo innovations were illustrated using extensive charts, diagrams, illustrations and hundreds of step by step photographic sequences. Ed executed practical self defense techniques against a multitude of unarmed and armed attacks. It is interesting to note that on the inside cover of this work, Ed is shown in a drawing by his brother, David Parker, wearing a Ninth Degree Belt. However, on the following page, it is stated that Ed is a Tenth Degree Black Belt. The reason is, that at the time of writing this innovative book, Ed was a Ninth Degree Black Belt. As a result of this masterfully exhaustive, inclusive treatise, Ed saw fit to take the recommendations of his senior Black Belts and accepted the honor and status of Senior Grandmaster of Kenpo. It seemed an almost fitting tribute that the February 1975 issue of Black Belt magazine wrote, "Many Kenpo stylists refer to Ed Parker as the last word on the proper way to do their techniques." Please see our website honoring Ed Parker Sr. at: edparkersr.com we have included the listing of his other publications and share the man that brought so much to the martial arts world and the only Sr. Grandmaster of Ed Parker's Kenpo Karate.
