Reginald Babanto regbabanto — Bu, Bill Kar'ın (evet, Bill Murray) ortak sahibi olduğu St. Chicago White Sox sahibi Bill Veeck. Kitap, Darryl Strawberry'nin onlar için oynadığı süre boyunca takımı takip ediyor (uyuşturucu rehabilitasyonu yoluyla üçüncü zamanından sonra zorunlu beyzbol rehabilitasyonu) ve Bill Murray'in Hollywood ilgi odasından çekilmesi ve sonuncusu Mike Veeck'in dış durumu arasında gevşek bağlantılar çiziyor. süperstarlardan hoşlanan küçük bir ligde süper star olan Darryl Strawberry'nin kendini oyuna sokma şansı. Tuhaf bir kitap ama yine de harika bir okuma, eğer inanılmaz St. Paul Saints promosyonlarından bazıları için Bill Murray ve Mike Veeck mantralarına dayanırlarsa: “Eğlence İyi”.

Mariana Baldino marianabaldinodg — There are brief moments of perfect balance in life. Looking at your sleeping children, nestled with your spouse, having a beer with your friends.... You wish you could freeze that perfectly ordinary, perfect safe moment of contentment forever. But life moves on. We make choices, relationships change, and mortality moves from the abstract to the concrete. RESCUE moves in and out of such moments. It opens with a rural Vermont EMT and his daughter, a high school senior, at breakfast. The EMT is Webster (referred to by this surname) and his daughter is Rowan. No mother is present, and we quickly feel the tension as Webster tries to deal with the moody temperament and guarded privacy of an adolescent daughter. In flash-back, Webster's relationship to Rowan's mother, Sheila, is recounted. Like his parents, the reader is both happy and apprehensive for him. At that moment, Webster reflects: “Their time together had been a secret....[he] was afraid that something precious was in jeopardy now....He longed to be back in that moment in the B and B, stroking Sheila's arm before she woke up.” Webster is a quiet, methodical presence. As an EMT he is well-rehearsed in the mindset of triage. Shreve uses this fact as the tacit structural foundation for the course of her novel. She alternates the reflections on Webster's family life with vignettes of rescue calls. Webster, himself, tries to separate these two parts of himself: He removes his EMT uniform when he comes home: “He didn't want any part of his job to touch the baby. Taking off the uniform was a way of putting aside one life and taking up another.” Yet, the two lives define him, and the trajectory of the book demonstrates how the two parts will come to fit together. I was attracted to this book by the EMT context, and in this respect it does not disappoint. We view the disciplined relationship between Webster and a trainee, the camaraderie with his seasoned partner, the teamwork that goes into a multiple injury rescue scene, and the acronyms Webster uses to hone his reflexes in each emergency. Structurally, this book is a gem. More difficult was the contrast of stoicism and decisiveness that defined Webster.

саша чайкин lpride8191a — A biography worth reading! Danny Meyer is one of the most iconic restaurantaurs in the world and Union Sqaure Hospitality is one of the most admired restaurant companies. This is an account of how he set up the group, from the first restaurant (the Union Square Cafe) to how he created a unique experience at every new restaurant he opened. This book is also a manual for restaurant managers and people dealing with any type of 'clients' on how to serve with warmth and dignity.

Carolina Maria carolmariacarvalho — Great book. I have to also recommend the HBO series on the same book. They really compliment each other.

Alexander Gloeckner agloeckner — "Daniel Morgan, Revolutionary Rifleman" by Don Higgenbotham is a reprint of the 1961 biography. It was recommended to me by a Park Ranger at the Saratoga Battlefield. (They have a wonderful historical book section at the store there.) I found it a good introductory biography and an easy read on a very important historical figure. Colonel, later General Morgan was one of the American Revolution's experts in "light warfare". He played very important roles in both the Saratoga Campaign and in the later Southern Campaigns as well as commanding the Continental Army's screening forces during the Philadelphia Campaigns. The biography is a bit dated in terms of style. I say this because it attempts to provide a simple straightforward description of what Morgan actually did. It does not attempt historical revisionism. It does not attempt to dwell upon any weaknesses he had. As, I guess, an old fogey, I greatly appreciated this approach. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in an easily read, mercifully short, well written, and interesting biography of an important figure in the American Revolution.
