Illustrated with two sections of black-and-white photographic plates and preliminary page map. "A taste of The Miracle of Castel di Sangro. Italy is composed of twenty regions. Some are legendary, others extremely popular with foreign tourists, and still more, though not as well know to outsiders, prized by the Italians themselves. And then there is the Abruzzo. Frommer's 1996 guide to Italy describes it as "one of the poorest and least visited regions" in the country. "Arid and sunscorched.prone to frequent earthquakes, the Abruzzo is.impoverished and visually stark." It is a region, says another guidebook, "in which there is little of interest to see and even less to do." This reputation was not acquired overnight. Nathaniel Hawthorne visited in the nineteenth century and wrote even then that the region was "without enough of life and juiciness to be any longer susceptible of decay. An earthquake would afford it the only chance of ruin, beyond its present ruin." And that was in season." - from the rear outer jacket. "In the summer of 1996, Joe McGinniss, the author of such non-fiction bestsellers as The Selling of the President, Fatal Vision, Blind Faith, and The Last Brother, set out for the remote Italian village of Castel di Sangro, located deep within the forbidding and isolated region of the Abruzzo. His goal was to spend a season with the village soccer team, which only weeks before had accomplished the feat - hailed throughout Italy as a "miracle" - of winning promotion to the second-highest professional league in the land. Though Castel di Sangro had only five thousand inhabitants, its team would now compete against those from such cities as Genoa, Turin, Padua, and Venice in a fight to keep its miracle alive. Almost immediately Joe McGinniss was embrioled in a small-town drama that had less to do with a game played by men kicking a ball than with hope, fear, love, loss, and almost unbearable suspense. He found himself, like everyone in the town, bursting with affection and anxiety for this quixotic and boisterous band of young Italian athletes. Through victories. losses, scandals, deaths, and hard lessons in the Italian way of sport, he found a story whose depth and power stunned him. This book is his account of that year, a masterpiece of storytelling that transcends its particulars to embrace universal emotions. Written with passion, tenderness, and humor - plus an appreciation for the absurd - The Miracle of Castel di Sangro is an unforgettable portrait of Italy's people, its towns and cities, and its complicated, irrepressible spirit." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - At first glance, the rickety old rocker seemed to have no value. It was nearly lost in a devastating fire long ago, and, but for a twist of fate, it would have been discarded as worthless. Its discovery led to the revelation of a remarkable story that began in 1879 with Molly's birth as the youngest of seven children growing up on a tobacco farm in rural Kentucky - and continuing through and beyond the Great Depression. Yet this is no ordinary tale because the challenges that Molly confronted with heart, grace, and grit are many of the same issues we face today, including deeply ingrained hatred by some for those of different beliefs and skin colors. Molly's story reveals a life of both struggle and tragedy, but Molly always finds a way to live with simple joy and purpose. Based on actual events, Molly's story is a deeply moving testament to the power of enduring love and friendship.
