The Back Roads to March The Unsung, Unheralded, and Unknown Heroes of a College Basketball Season【電子書籍】[ John Feinstein ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**#1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author John Feinstein returns to his first love--college basketball--with a fascinating and compelling journey through a landscape of unsung, unpublicized and often unknown heroes of Division-1 college hoops.</p> <p>"Uplifting...[A] heartfelt missive to college basketball." ー<em>The Wall Street Journal</em>**</p> <p>John Feinstein pulls back the curtain on college basketball's lesser-known Cinderella stories--the smaller programs who no one expects to win, who have no chance of attracting the most coveted high school recruits. To tell this story, Feinstein follows a handful of players, coaches, and schools who dream, not of winning the NCAA tournament, but of making it past their first or second round games. Every once in a while, one of these coaches or players is plucked from obscurity to lead a major team or to play professionally, cementing their status in these fiercely passionate fan bases as a legend. These are the gifted players who aren't handled with kid gloves--they're hardworking, gritty teammates who practice and party with everyone else.</p> <p>With his trademark humor and invaluable connections, John Feinstein reveals the big time programs you've never heard of, the bracket busters you didn't expect to cheer for, and the coaches who inspire them to take their teams to the next level.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,265円

On the Bible's Back Roads Where Old Stories And Our Stories Meet【電子書籍】[ Robert Green ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Bible contains many stories of what might be called 'bit players'; those who appear briefly, sometimes only for a few verses, and are not central to the narrative, but who still play a significant role. These old stories feature and were written by people with whom we share a common humanity and whose encounters with God have much to teach us. In their stories we see something of our own stories and, if we listen aright, we can hear the divine voice speaking through their strength and weaknesses, their triumphs and tragedies and their joys and sorrows. Their stories also throw light on the heart of the narrative, the story of Jesus, and demonstrate the rich inclusiveness of the Bible. They also offer us a fascinating reflection of who we are as Christian believers and the nature of the world in which we try to live out our faith. Their journeys, however marginal they may seem, make significant contributions to the story Scripture tells. This book can be used generally by individuals or groups but is also suitable for use as a series of Lenten reflections. As we listen to some of the lesser-known voices and stories we encounter in Scripture we will find that they are not there by accident and have the power to profoundly enrich our Christian understanding.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 665円

He has lived in Alice Springs and Broome longer than he has in the Big Smoke, has traversed the Tanami Track between Alice Springs and Darwin hundreds of times and reckons he's done more laps of Australia than a Qantas plane.</p> <p>This book also contains the wisdom of many of the First Nations people he has worked with throughout his career, including interviews with the original <em>Bush Mechanics</em> and <em>Black As</em> boys. You'll find out how they stuff blown tyres with spinifex, fashion mulga wood into gear sticks and keep cars going long after their used-by date - and learn how to have a whirl yourself.</p> <p><em>Batty's Bush Bible</em> is your guide to going bush and living to tell the tale. Filled with practical advice, ripper yarns and road-trip tips, it's designed to be picked up, put down, tossed in the glove box or, if you really need it, used for kindling to cook your tailgate dinner. So whether you're a grey nomad, living your best #vanlife or just looking to do a bit of imaginative armchair tourism, this book is your bible for how to stay out of trouble in the outback - and make your own.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,213円

Deep South Four Seasons on Back Roads【電子書籍】[ Paul Theroux ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER</strong></p> <p><strong>Winner of the Stanford Dolman Lifetime Contribution to Travel Writing Award 2020</strong></p> <p><strong>Beloved travel writer Paul Theroux turns his attention to America, exploring the landscapes and communities of his homeland as an outsider for the first time</strong></p> <p>For the past fifty years, Paul Theroux has travelled to the far corners of the earth - to China, India, Africa, the Pacific Islands, South America, Russia, and elsewhere - and brought them to life in his cool, exacting prose. In <em>Deep South</em> he turns his gaze to a region much closer to his home.</p> <p>Travelling through North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas, Paul Theroux writes of the stunning landscapes he discovers - the deserts, the mountains, the Mississippi - and above all, the lives of the people he meets.</p> <p>The South is a place of contradictions. There is the warm, open spirit of the soul food cafes, found in every town, no matter how small. There is the ruined grandeur of numberless ghostly towns, long abandoned by the industries that built them. There are the state gun shows and the close-knit,subtly forlorn tribe of people who attend and run them. Deep in the heart of his native country, Theroux discovers a land more profoundly foreign than anything he has previously experienced.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,586円

<p>"Eighteen-year-old Jack has never known a world without the ubiquitous Eyebitsーdevices worn over the eyes that allow one to be constantly connected to media and anyone else wearing the device. No one is ever without their Eyebit for long, and communicating face-to-face and engaging with the world unconnected are virtually unknown. When Jack's father becomes concerned that Jack is failing to grow up, he introduces Jack to his own father, Pops, who refuses to wear an Eyebitーever. The ensuing relationship between grandfather and grandson revolves around the restoration of an antique Ford Mustangーand it will change Jack's view of the world forever.

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Breathtaking tales of climbers and hunters, runners and racers, winners and losers by the Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter.</strong></p> <p><em>New York Times</em> reporter John Branch’s riveting, humane pieces about ordinary people doing extraordinary things at the edges of the sporting world have won nearly every major journalism prize. <em>Sidecountry</em> gathers the best of Branch’s work for the first time, featuring 20 of his favorites from the more than 2,000 pieces he has published in the paper.</p> <p>Branch is renowned for covering the offbeat in the sporting world, from alligator hunting to wingsuit flying. <em>Sidecountry</em> features such classic Branch pieces, including “Snow Fall,” about downhill skiers caught in an avalanche in Washington state, and “Dawn Wall,” about rock climbers trying to scale Yosemite’s famed El Capitan. In other articles, Branch introduces people whose dedication and decency transcend their sporting lives, including a revered football coach rebuilding his tornado-devastated town in Iowa and a girls’ basketball team in Tennessee that plays on despite never winning a game. The book culminates with his moving personal pieces, including “Children of the Cube,” about the surprising drama of Rubik’s Cube competitions as seen through the eyes of Branch’s own sports-hating son, and “The Girl in the No. 8 Jersey,” about a mother killed in the 2017 Las Vegas shooting whose daughter happens to play on Branch’s daughter’s soccer team.</p> <p>John Branch has been hailed for writing “American portraiture at its best” (Susan Orlean) and for covering sports “the way Lyle Lovett writes country musicーa fresh turn on a time-honored pleasure” (Nicholas Dawidoff). <em>Sidecountry</em> is the work of a master reporter at the top of his game.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,344円

Murderers In Mausoleums Riding the Back Roads of Empire Between Moscow and Beijing【電子書籍】[ Jeffrey Tayler ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A gripping journey through some of the planet's most remote and challenging terrain and its peoples, in search of why democracy has yet to thrive in lands it seemed so recently ready to overtake Across the largest landmass on earth, in lands once conquered by Genghis Khan and exploited by ruthless Communist regimes, autocratic and dictatorial states are again arising, growing wealthy on petrodollars and low-cost manufacturing.<br /> More and more, they are challenging theWest.<br /> Media reports focus on developments in Moscow and Beijing, but the peoples inhabiting the vast expanses in between remain mostly unseen and unheard, their daily lives and aspirations scarcely better known to us now than they were in ColdWar days.Tayler finds, among many others, a dissident Cossack advocating mass beheadings, a Muslim in Kashgar calling on the United States to bomb Beijing, and Chinese youths in Urumqi desiring nothing more than sex, booze, and rock 'n' rollーall while confronting over and over again the contradiction of people who value liberty and the free market but idealize tyrants who oppose both.<br /> From the steppes of southern Russia to the conflict-ridden Caucasus Mountains to the deserts of central Asia and northern China,Tayler shows that our maps have gone blank at the worst possible time.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,440円

Two Wheels Over Catalonia Cycling the Back Roads of North-Eastern Spain【電子書籍】[ Richard Guise ]

With over 400 kilometres of sparkling Mediterranean shoreline and an interior dominated by the Pyrenees, it’s a spectacular journey from wind-blown headlands to the glitzy costas, and from bustling Barcelona to remote hillsides where only wild goats grazing and chirruping cicadas disturb the tranquillity.</p> <p>Dipping into the unique history of this fiercely independent nation-within-a-nation, he uncovers many of its cultural peculiarities, such as why the sardana dance is not as easy as it looks and what to do in a bugaderia.

Back Roads of Spain【電子書籍】[ Duncan Gough ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Every year since 2000 I have ridden to Spain on my Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro.<br /> This book is largely about my experiences on those journeys, but also includes articles on more general motorcycling and travel themes.<br /> I hope that the reader will not only enjoy the telling, but will perhaps be inspired to commit their own journeys to paper; you will see that I have managed to improve the way I write, year on year, just give it a go!<br /> Of course I also hope to inspire you to set off for Spain yourself; to this end I have put in a number of maps, some of the common dangers of riding in Spain, books to read, and some cookery!<br /> This is not a guide book; my intention is to encourage you to explore Spain in a way that you might not otherwise.<br /> Although my journeys are normally on my motorbike I hope this will not discourage users of other vehicles from checking out places and roads that I have included here.

Back Roads to Bliss A Novel【電子書籍】[ Ruth Glover ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>All good things must come to an end, and Ruth Glover's irresistible fiction series will be wrapped up in Backroads to Bliss. This final portion of romance, humor, and historical storytelling will charm fans of the series, which details the adventures of Saskatchewan's unflagging settlers.<br /> In Backroads to Bliss, Glover once again infuses her characters with the exhilaration, pride, and grit that typified those who settled Canada's untamed bush country. She begins in England with Allison Middleton, a spoiled daughter of the aristocracy. When Allison makes the grave error of embarrassing her snooty father, she is banished to the far reaches of the Empire: the wilds of Canada. Allison's long trek from pampered society girl to penniless immigrant is as moving as it is entertaining. With warmth and spirit, Glover shows how anyone who asks for redemption can find it in God's waiting arms.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 639円

Back Roads to Israel【電子書籍】[ Maxwell Thurston ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The origin and emphasis of the Judeo-Christian faith began with the call of Abram. Concerning salvation, have you ever asked why there’s a need or a purpose for a call in the first place? And besides, who was God actually talking to in the land of Ur? Back Roads to Israel is a study of Jesus’s spiritual ancestry and background. Author Maxwell Thurston helps explain how Abraham, a man of flesh and bones, has a direct ancestral lineage to Jesusーbecause if Jesus is the Son of God, then there must be spiritual DNA that connects him with the Lord our God, who is in heaven. Knowing the spiritual avenues taken by Abraham will take us to the beginning of creation, when the living word was with God. If you are able to travel the unbeaten path, the back roads of Abraham, then it will help clear up confusion about Jesusーespecially the part where we read, “From thy father’s house.”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 552円
