A roman a clef about a group of American and English expatriates on an excursion from Paris's Left Bank to Pamplona for the July fiest and its climactic bull fight, a journey from the center of a civilization spiritually bakrupted by the First World War to a vital, God-haunted world in which faith and honor have yet to lose their currency, the novel captured for the generation that would come to be called "Lost" the spirit of its age, and marked Ernest Hemingway as the preeminent writer of his time." - from the inner front jacket flap.

As new condition cream boards, brown spine, and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Authors' Dedications; Acknowledgments; Preface and Epilogue. "An incredible true story that pro…ves that dreams can come true, even those that seem lost forever. Jim Morris escaped the desolation of his youth by dreaming of pitching in the major leagues. But as with most kids, it was just a fantasy, made all the more impossible by injuries he suffered in his early twenties. Having hoped only for a professional baseball career, Jim found himself facing an adult world he barely recognized. He turned away from baseball and toward the real world. Years passed, and on his thirty-fifth birthday Jim Morris found himself settled in as a high school physics teacher in a hardscrabble West Texas town. He had a wonderful wife, three kids, and students who adored him. His baseball career was restricted to coaching, and he believed his purpose in life was to inspire his students and players to dream bigger dreams than their harsh surroundings and homes generally allowed. Then came the bet. Jim's young players had a proposition for their coach: If they won the league championship - something their school had never done - he'd try out for a major-league team. Jim laughed, knowing he was way too old to be considered by a professional squad, but he accepted. Well, they won. And what happened next surprised everyone, especially Jim Moris. Keeping his end of the bet, he headed off to try out for the major leagues. There, he threw faster and better than he had ever thrown before. Suddenly, Jim Morris was reborn. A few months later, he took the mound at Texas Stadium and became the major leagues' oldest rookie pitcher in forty years. Jim Morris's dream had come true. A book about hope, about fathers and children, about husbands and wives, about players and competition, and about the power of dreams, The Oldest Rookie is more than just a tale of one man's inspiring journey. It is for everyone who refuses to give up, and its moral is that we may very well have succeeded beyond our wildest aspirations without even knowing it." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Paris, Joe (jacket design); Northrup, Michael (jacket photograph); Robinette, Dale (author photograph of Joel Engel); Nochis, Rex (author photograph of Jim Morris) (illustrator).

Also includes a tipped-into-the-volume two page, double-sided Simon & Schuster Publicity Advertisement for Hank & Jim, entitled News from Simon & Schuster. "New York Times bestselling author Scott Eyman tells the remarkable story of two Hollywood legends who, though different in many ways, maintained a close friendship that endured through all of life's twists and turns. Henry Fonda and James Stewart were two of the biggest stars in Hollywood for decades. Before that, they were friends and roommates as stage actors in New York, and when they began making films in Hollywood, they roomed together again. Between them they made such memorable films as The Grapes of Wrath, Mister Robers, Twelve Angry Men, and On Golden Pond; and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Destry Rides Again, The Philadelphia Story, It's a Wonderful Life, Vertigo, and Rear Window. They got along famously, with a shared interest in elaborate practical jokes and model airplanes, among other things. Fonda was a liberal Democrat, Stewart a conservative Republican, but after one memorable blowup over politics, they agreed never to discuss that subject again. Fonda was a ladies' man who was married five times; Stewart remained married to the same woman for forty-five years. Both men served during World War II and were decorated for their service. When Stewart returned home, still unmarried, he once again moved in with Fonda, his wife, and their two children, Jane and Peter, who knew him as Uncle Jimmy. For Hank and Jim, biographer and film historian Scott Eyman spoke with Fonda's widow and children as well as Stewart's three surviving children, plus actors and directors who had worked with both men - in addition to doing extensive archival research to get the full details of their remarkable bond. Much more than a Hollywood story, this is a fascinating portrait of an extraordinary friendship that lasted through war, marriages, children, careers, and everything else." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Scott Eyman has a gift for exploring subjects we think we know, then deepening and enriching that knowledge through diligent research and his gift of observation. Henry Fonda and James Stewart have never been captured so well, nor has their extraordinary fifty-year friendship." - Leonard Maltin. Bonomelli, Rex (jacket design); Lovett, Greg (author photograph) (illustrator).

"The extraordinary saga of Mother Angelica, founder of multimillion-dollar Eternal Word Television Network and "The Most Influential Catholic Woman in America," according to TIME magazine. In 1981, the year after Ted Turner founded CNN, a simple nun, using merely her entrepreneurial instincts and two hundred dollars, launched what would become the world's largest religious media empire in the garage of a Birmingham, Alabama, monastery. Under her guidance, the Eternal Word Television Network grew at a staggering pace, both in viewership and in influence, to where it now reaches over a hundred million viewers in hundreds of countries around the globe. Born Rita Rizzo in Canton, Ohio, in 1923, Mother Angelica was abandoned by her father and raised in poverty by a mother who suffered from suicidal depressions. As a young woman, Rita developed severe abdominal pain that doctors dismissed as a "nervous condition," but when she sought the prayers of a local mystic, her symptoms disappeared. Awakened to the power of prayer, she vowed to dedicate her life to God and became a cloistered nun, expecting to spend her life hidden from the world. But Rita's faith soon compelled her to unlikely endeavors, from establishing a monastery in Alabama to starting the world's first Catholic cable network. Relying soley on "God's providence," Mother Angelica built an empire without concern for budgets or fund-raising campaigns, achieving what even the highest levels of the Catholic Church had been unable to do. Raymond Arroyo combines his journalist's objectivity and eye for detail with more than five years of exclusive interviews with Mother Angelica. He traces her tortured rise to success and exposes for the first time the fierce opposition she faced, both inside and outside of her church. It is an inspiring story of survival and proof that one woman's faith can move more than mountains." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. ". captures the complexities, humanity, and tenacity of Mother Angelica, who has long been one of my own personal heroes.Mother Angelica is a woman who dared to dream, to stand up for what she believed in, and whose faith showed that anything is possible. In Arroyo's hands, she becomes someone you wish you had the opportunity to know and love." - Nicholas Sparks. "This is some woman. What a wonderful story. because it's true, because [Raymond] got the facts, because she chose him to tell them, and because he's a born storyteller." - Peggy Noonan, author. "Mother Angelica's personal words to me, her courageous example, and her constant prayers helped inspire my portrayal of Jesus in The Passion of the Christ. No one could have captured the essence of this modern-day saint better than Raymond Arroyo. His narrative gifts and understanding of Mother are clearly evident in this truthful and often candid depiction of one nun's struggle to bring God to the multitudes. Surely this book, and Mother's life, will have an incredible enduring legacy." - James Caviezel, actor. "Mother Angelica is one of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time, and is truly one of my heroes.Raymond Arroyo has done a masterful job capturing not only Mother's immeasurable accomplishments but also her remarkable personality. Like Mother herself, this book has the unique combination of being both inspiring and entertaining." - Thomas S. Monaghan, founder of Domino's Pizza and chancellor of Ave Maria University. "A rattling good story of fear, faith, courage, and bulldog tenacity, beautifully told. a powerful reminder that the extraordinary lies just beyond the ordinary - if we have eyes to see and ears to hear." - George Weigel, author.
