Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh, original history of America’s national narratives, told through the loss, recovery, and rise of one influential Puritan sermon from 1630 to the present day In this illuminating book, Abram Van Engen shows how the phrase “City on a Hill,” from a 1630 sermon by Massachusetts Bay governor John Winthrop, shaped the story of American exceptionalism in the twentieth century. By tracing the history of Winthrop’s speech, its changing status throughout time, and its use in modern politics, Van Engen asks us to reevaluate our national narratives. He tells the story of curators, librarians, collectors, archivists, antiquarians, and often anonymous figures who emphasized the role of the Pilgrims and Puritans in American history, paving the way for the saving and sanctifying of a single sermon. This sermon’s rags-to-riches rise reveals the way national stories take shape and shows us how those tales continue to influence competing visions of the country—the many different meanings of America that emerge from its literary past.

Book excerpt: A small time rugby club, Haven RUFC are going on tour. The story begins at the end of season, county cup final. Haven are the underdogs playing a Team from the biggest town in the county, Malvil Park. The Haven club are a mixture of has-beens and never-wasses. They have two decent players, a gifted scrum half, who only plays well when protected by his friend and village bobby, the club's powerful no 8. The ageing chairman of Haven is approached by the County Deputy Chief Constable, who also happens to chair the selection panel for the county team, informing him under strict secrecy that someone at the Haven club is suspected of drug smuggling. The policeman informs Haven's chairman that a drug squad officer has been playing for Haven for some time, under cover. Who is the secret policeman and who is bringing in the drugs? What goes on tour is supposed to stay on tour but follow the story of Haven RUFC and see if you can spot angels and devils.

Book excerpt: The Fix is the most explosive story of sports corruption in a generation. Intriguing, riveting, and compelling, it tells the story of an investigative journalist who sets out to examine the world of match-fixing in professional soccer. From the Introduction Understand how gambling fixers work to corrupt a soccer game and you will understand how they move into a basketball league, a cricket tournament, or a tennis match (all places, by the way, that criminal fixers have moved into). My views on soccer have changed. I still love the Saturday-morning game between amateurs: the camaraderie and the fresh smell of grass. But the professional game leaves me cold. I hope you will understand why after reading the book. I think you may never look at sport in the same way again.
