Hardback. Condizione: Fair. Unwritten in the annals of the sporting world is the story of a man with unlimited potential who was denied his rightful place in the lore of golf. It is a story that might never have been told had Charley Hunter not accepted a summer internship at Butler & Yates, a prestigious Atlanta law firm. Bobby Jones, the legendary amateur golfer, had once been a partner at the firm and his old legal files had been severely neglected over the years. The task of cataloging those files soon presents Charley with the remnants of a man's life, as he pieces together a tale that spans decades. Who is this mysterious golfer with a golden swing, whose life and career Jones followed with such interest? An accused felon fleeing from the law? Or a man falsely accused, whose only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time? And why would one of the greatest athletes of all time risk his spotless reputation to help a man he met only once? Charley quickly learns that there is a compelling tale buried within the files of Bobby Jones. Charley uncovers stories of unfulfilled promise, fleeting justice, near captures, and unyielding friendship--and to what end? Charley hopes to find the truth. But what he ultimately finds will change his life and understanding of life forever.…

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. I dreamed again of Fibblestax, sitting among his books, Peering into the candlelight with a calm, thoughtful look. For he's the one who gives a name to every single thing. If not for him we couldn't talk. Or read, or write, or sing. So begins the delightful fable of Fibblestax, and how he came to be the one who names everything. He has to battle the tricky, red-faced Carr, a man who gives terrible names to wonderful things. The mayor of their town gives them five things to name, and the final one, that very strange feeling, a dreamy kind of cheer/the feeling that makes you feel so good when a special friend is near stumps Carr. But, Fibblestax knows that feeling. With soft, intricately detailed illustrations to accompany the musical text, this book will surely become a special favorite for children of all ages.
