"Ken "Hawk" Harrelson and his signature calls have become synonymous with baseball during his five decades in the booth, first with the Boston Red Sox but for most of those years with the Chicago White Sox. His incredible knowledge of the game, hard-earned wisdom, and willingness to wear his heart on his sleeve have made him a beloved icon in the Windy City. But Hawk is much more than an award-winning announcer. As a player, he helped the "Impossible Dream" Red Sox reach the World Series in 1967 and made the American League All-Star team and led the AL in RBIs a year later. Though still in his prime, an injury convinced him to make an unprecedented decision: leave the game of baseball for a career in professional golf, during which he qualified for and played in the 1972 British Open. Hawk was just as colorful when he took off his spikes, rubbing elbows with Joe Namath and Arnold Palmer, displaying his unique sense of fashion on his own television show, and even becoming executive vice-president of baseball operations for the White Sox in 1986. In Hawk: I Did It My Way, Harrelson details his life on and away from the field with his usual candor and wit. From a sometimes volatile childhood to his World Series memories to his enduring friendships with some of the biggest names in sports, Hawk touches all bases"--Dust jacket flap.

This book was written after the better part of two years in bed from both physical and mental health problems. I'll get more into that in the book. Journaling was therapeutic for me, and little did I know it would become a book. In this book, I talk about my trials and how I, with God having my back, was able to conquer most of them. I felt, and still feel, like I woke from a coma; and trying to reintegrate into my life was a challenge and at times still is. I want you to walk away from reading this book feeling like with God, you can get through anything life throws at you-because you can! It may not look like what you planned, but it's exactly what God planned. I hope that this book is relatable and gives you inspiration and courage and that you can see where God has touched me throughout my life.

Finalist for the 2022 Lammy Award for Bisexual & the 2022 Heartland Booksellers Award A Book Riot Best Book of the Year “Audaciously human and raw. The Way She Feels is a rainbow during the rain.” —Mara Altman A witty and one-of-a-kind debut graphic memoir detailing and drawing the life of a girl with borderline personality disorder finding her way—and herself—one day at a time. What does it feel like to fall in love too hard and too fast, to hate yourself in equal and opposite measure? To live in such fear of rejection that you drive friends and lovers away? Welcome to my world. I’m Courtney, and I have borderline personality disorder (BPD), along with over four million other people in the United States. Though I’ve shown every classic symptom of the disorder since childhood, I wasn’t properly diagnosed until nearly a decade later, because the prevailing theory is that most people simply “grow out of it.” Not me. In my illustrated memoir, The Way She Feels: My Life on the Borderline in Pictures and Pieces, I share what it’s been like to live and love with this disorder. Not just the hospitalizations, treatments, and residential therapy, but the moments I found comfort in cereal, the color pink, or mini corndogs; the days I couldn’t style my hair because I thought the blow-dryer was going to hurt me; the peace I found when someone I love held me. This is a book about vulnerability, honesty, acceptance, and how to speak openly—not only with doctors, co-patients, friends, family, or partners, but also with ourselves.

Stephanie Urdang was born in Cape Town, South Africa, into a white, Jewish family staunchly opposed to the apartheid regime. In 1967, at the age of twenty-three, no longer able to tolerate the grotesque iniquities and oppression of apartheid, she chose exile and emigrated to the United States. There she embraced feminism, met anti-apartheid and solidarity movement activists, and encountered a particularly American brand of racial injustice. Urdang also met African revolutionaries such as Amilcar Cabral, who would influence her return to Africa and her subsequent journalism. In 1974, she trekked through the liberation zones of Guinea-Bissau during its war of independence; in the 1980’s, she returned repeatedly to Mozambique and saw how South Africa was fomenting a civil war aimed to destroy the newly independent country. From the vantage point of her activism in the United States, and from her travels in Africa, Urdang tracked and wrote about the slow, inexorable demise of apartheid that led to South Africa’s first democratic elections, when she could finally return home. Urdang’s memoir maps out her quest for the meaning of home and for the lived reality of revolution with empathy, courage, and a keen eye for historical and geographic detail. This is a personal narrative, beautifully told, of a journey traveled by an indefatigable exile who, while yearning for home, continued to question where, as a citizen of both South Africa and the United States, she belongs. “My South Africa!” she writes, on her return in 1991, after the release of Nelson Mandela, “How could I have imagined for one instant that I could return to its beauty, and not its pain?”
