(Hardcover) "In 1962, six years before I first met him, John Lucas defended his doctoral dissertation at the University of Maryland on "Pierre de Coubertin and the Formative Years of the Modern Olympic Movement." Almost a half century later, following 8 books and some 250 scholarly articles on Olympic history, comes this book, "The Best of John Lucas," compiled by the world's doyen of seriously researched, thoroughly documented, and passionately written Olympic history. As I have done, enjoy!" (Dr. Robert Barney, founder of OLYMPICA: THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF OLYMPIC STUDIES and past-president of the North American Society for Sport History.)

Excerpt: "We could get partly undressed-so that we had only such clothes as would be delicious to hug & squeeze in & then you could sit in my lap & we'd kiss & hug & squeeze & cuddle each other until we couldn't stand it any longer. . . ." Ronald A. Smith, a well-known sport historian and emeritus professor at Penn State University, has published several books in sport history, including an edited diary belonging to the subject of these love letters. "Big-Time Football at Harvard, 1905: The Diary of Coach Bill Reid" chronicles the most important year in college football, when the crisis in brutality led to the creation of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the legalization of the forward pass. Bill Reid had another side to his life, however-a passionate one in which he and his girlfriend, fiancé, and wife exchanged intimate love letters for well over a decade. The passionate nature of Bill and Christine's letters during the late Victorian period and early twentieth century are rare and distinguish them from other collections. Bill and Christine wrote intimate love letters when they first met, through their engagement and a lengthy separation while Christine took an eight-month voyage with her parents to Europe, and especially after their marriage and the birth of their first three children. The explicit love letters of upper-middle and upper class individuals are an exceptional find, and they broach issues between couples that are almost universal, often appearing timeless. The love letters of Bill and Christine not only illuminate aspects of life in the early twentieth century, but also they make us reflect on our own lives.

In 2008, after more than a decade of touring as a rapper/producer and sharing the stage with the likes of Run DMC, Mos Def, Talib Kweli and the P Funk All Stars, 23 Skidoo dropped Easy, his debut kid hop album for and with his 5 year old daughter, Saki. The kid hop concept spread like wildflowers, generating critical raves from USA Today and Parenting Magazine, and two #1 hits on Sirius-XM radio’s “Kids Place Live.” Skidoo’s sophomore release, Underground Playground (2010) also scored topspins on Sirius-XM and garnered glowing reviews from Time and NPR’s “All Things Considered.” 23 Skidoo is a spokesman for positivity, education and awareness. His efforts to promote reading were recognized when he was chosen as the New York City Library Summer Reading Program Official Spokesman for 2010/2011. His advocacy for peace and cooperation landed him a feature spot on the 2012 Grammy award winning album, All About Bullies…Big and Small. His contribution (with The Sugar Free Allstars) is the single “Cooperate”, which also enjoys regular spins on kids’ radio shows around the country.
