Описание: Charles K. Schmandt came into the world under unusual circumstances-he was born in Portland, Oregon during the Great Depression, long before the West Coast city was an attractive place to be. And he was born to immensely loving, capable parents who were both deaf-mutes. He and his brothers had a unique start in life as hearing children of Deaf parents, instilling in them a remarkable "can-do" attitude as they navigated a family life unfamiliar to most, while exploring their own significant talents. As the family moved around the United States looking for work, they eventually settled in Santa Barbara, California. As the oldest of three siblings, Charles became the family "spokesman" at the age of nine, and as he grew up, he worked alongside his father in many trades, acquiring skills and perspectives that would serve him in surprising ways, later in life. After graduating from high school, he married Phyllis Goldschmidt and became Assistant Manager for Standard Stations until an opportunity came along that he couldn't pass up: the chance to play professional baseball with the Cleveland Indians. But this isn't the story of a baseball career. Schmandt's dream of baseball was interrupted-first by the Korean War, and then by his own misgivings about whether that was the right choice for him, long-term. And thus began his remarkable self-reinvention as an architect, despite no formal education in the field. This compulsively readable memoir takes you through the ups and downs of a man whose vision was always focused on possibilities, which led him from a memorable stint in the sports world to the pinnacle of success as an award-winning architect. Warm, relatable, and inspiring, this look back at an epic life has something for every reader.

The Art of Football is a singular look at early college football art and illustrations. This collection contains more than two hundred images, many rare or previously unpublished, from a variety of sources, including artists Winslow Homer, Edward Penfield, J. C. Leyendecker, Frederic Remington, Charles Dana Gibson, George Bellows, and many others.
Along with the rich art that captured the essence of football during its early period, Michael Oriard provides a historical context for the images and for football during this period, showing that from the beginning it was perceived more as a test of courage and training in manliness than simply an athletic endeavor. Oriard’s analysis shows how these early artists had to work out for themselves—and for readers—what in the new game should be highlighted and how it should appear on the page or canvas. The Art of Football takes modern readers back to the day when players themselves were new to the sport, and illustrators had to show the public what the new game of football was. Oriard demonstrates how artists focused on football’s dual nature as a grueling sport to be played and as a social event and spectacle to be watched.
Through its illustrations and words The Art of Football gives readers an engaging look at the earliest depictions of the game and the origins of the United States as a football nation.

Описание: From the untimely deaths of young athletes to chronic disease among retired players, roiling debates over tackle football have profound implications for more than one million American boys—some as young as five years old—who play the sport every year. In this book, Kathleen Bachynksi offers the first history of youth tackle football and debates over its safety. In the postwar United States, high school football was celebrated as a "moral" sport for young boys, one that promised and celebrated the creation of the honorable male citizen. Even so, Bachynski shows that throughout the twentieth century, coaches, sports equipment manufacturers, and even doctors were more concerned with "saving the game" than young boys' safety—even though injuries ranged from concussions and broken bones to paralysis and death. By exploring sport, masculinity, and citizenship, Bachynski uncovers the cultural priorities other than child health that made a collision sport the most popular high school game for American boys. These deep-rooted beliefs continue to shape the safety debate and the possible future of youth tackle football.

Автор: Smith Wann Название: Wishbone: Oklahoma Football, 1959-1985 ISBN: 0806162899 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780806162898 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 18350.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The Oklahoma Sooners dominated the world of college football during the 1950s. Under the leadership of Coach Bud Wilkinson, the team won three national titles and established an astounding record of forty-seven straight victories that still stands today. Yet by 1959, Wilkinson's Sooners were showing signs of vulnerability, marking the start of a new and challenging era in Oklahoma football. Then along came a new offensive strategy, and OU began to dominate college football once again.In Wishbone, veteran journalist Wann Smith provides an in-depth account of Sooner football from the team's final years under Wilkinson through its remarkable turnaround under Coach Barry Switzer. At the heart of this story is the phenomenal success of the Wishbone offense - a hybrid offshoot of the Split-t formation that Wilkinson employed so successfully in the 1950s. Though not without its risks, the Wishbone offense changed the face of college football and was a key factor in Oklahoma's resurgence in the 1970s with Switzer at the helm. Drawing on firsthand accounts from coaches, players, and university administrators, many never before published, Smith takes us behind the scenes during this exciting comeback period to reveal not just what happened but why and how it happened. And he brings to life the personalities who played pivotal roles in the team's renewed success, including Jack Mildren, Greg Pruitt, Joe Washington, Billy Sims, and any, many others. Sooner fans, indeed all fans of college football, will relish this account of the remaking of a football powerhouse and its return to glory.
