Book excerpt: This Los Angeles Times bestseller takes a riveting look at the life and times of depression-era golf legend Bobby Jones. In the wake of the stock market crash and the dawn of the Great Depression, a ray of light emerged from the world of sports in the summer of 1930. Bobby Jones, a 28-year-old amateur golfer, mounted a campaign against the record books. In four months, he conquered the British Amateur Championship, the British Open, the United States Open, and finally the United States Amateur Championship, an achievement so extraordinary that writers dubbed it the Grand Slam. No one has ever repeated it. Mark Frost uses a wealth of original research to provide an unprecedented intimate portrait of golf great Bobby Jones. In the tradition of The Greatest Game Ever Played, The Grand Slam blends social history with sports biography, captivating the imagination and engaging the reader. The Grand Slam is a biography not to be missed.

Book excerpt: If you have ever awakened wondering why you were born, if anyone cared, or how your life had become such a mess, this book might be helpful to you. If you know someone who has given up a family, a job, or a lifelong passion to continue using alcohol or any other drugs- then you know a disconnected and troubled soul. Perhaps you know a parent that struggles to do his or her job. Maybe you have intentionally hurt someone or been jealous because of ghosts in your past relationship. Perhaps you are fearful of someone unmasking the real you, yet you secretly hope and want to be caught. Or maybe the police have real business with you because you've violated others' rights by taking their property, abusing their bodies, or manipulating their money. It doesn't matter what your scenario is - divorce, money problems, abusive relationships, promiscuity, violence either in thought or deed, persistent fear or chronic uncertainty. What does matter is what it is doing to you. Are you lying, cheating and manipulating to get through daily life? Are you living contrary to your core beliefs? Have you lost your connection to family, friends, yourself and God? Have you become a disconnected soul? Then my friend, you should read this book. Samuel Huddleston's autobiography, Five Years to Life, has inspired people across America and throughout the world, giving them hope for a new beginning. Samuel has shared his story with thousands including, government officials, businessmen, colleges, high schools, and prison inmates. In 2006, he earned a Doctorate degree from Regent University. He has been married for thirty-three years to Linda, they have three children (Andre, Royce and Ericka) and eleven grandbabies.

Book excerpt: Jalen DeLuca applies his baseball genius to his own playing in the follow-up to Tim Green and Derek Jeter’s New York Times bestselling novel Baseball Genius. Jalen DeLuca loves baseball. But he’s more than just a fan and a talented player; Jalen is a baseball genius. He can analyze and predict almost exactly what a pitcher is going to do with his next pitch. His unique ability helped him save the career of the Yankees’s star baseman, James “JY” Yager, by signaling the pitches from the stands. Now turning his focus to his own baseball career, Jalen has to put his genius into action in new and untested ways. But without the stats and information he has on the pro players, analyzing the pitchers seems impossible. And even if he knows what the pitch will be, actually hitting it takes more than intuition. As if the pressure of the team and drama with his friends weren’t enough, one major event changes everything—Jalen’s mom comes back into his life. Can Jalen work through it all to hit a grand slam and make his baseball dreams a reality?

Imagine staring at a snarling 9' polar bear at 15 steps with nothing but a bow in your icy hand and no backup firepower. Imagine a raw, raining, 15-day hunt for Alaska brown bears and placing a tiny sight pin on a 1,400-pound monster. Imagine trekking for the Grand Slam of wild sheep; muskox 50 miles from the North Pole; and a world record elk in the Montana mountains. The writing is vintage Chuck Adams - spine tingling, extreme bowhunting adventure with practical, proven bowhunting knowledge woven throughout.
