A nostalgic look back at the decade that defined the New York Giants, updated with a new introduction. NEW YORK TIMES reporter Gerald Eskenazi brings us back to 1954, when the New York Giants began a decade of success as an iconic American sports team, winning six division titles between 1954 and 1963.

Filled with personal anecdotes from players and coaches that reconstruct the drama and excitement of the plays and games during that eventful era, Giants fans will be reunited with the players (Robustelli, Huff, Grier, Modzelewski, and Svare on defense; Gifford, Rote, Brown, Shofner, Webster, and Tittle on offense), their rivals (Jim Brown, John Unitas, and others), meet Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry when they were assistant coaches, and relive the 1958 title game against the Baltimore Colts—the first overtime game in National Football League history—which remains in lore as the “greatest game ever played."

There Were GIANTS on the Earth in Those Days... and Also After That by Roberta Sams Pdf
“What I appreciate about There Were Giants on the Earth in Those Days … and Also After That, is that it is not only intelligible but is enjoyable to read. It doesn’t require the reader to know a lot about eschatology but provides them a learning experience, as the author has done extensive research and study to uncover the mysteries of the Bible, which has all the answers. It tells what is going to happen in the future. “The book deals with how Lucifer was cast out of heaven when he rebelled against God and how sin first entered into the world in the garden of Eden. It shows how Satan has battled against God and His plan to provide salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. “Subjects like giants in the land, the flood, false religions, Islam, secret societies, UFOs, and others are discussed. The Federal Reserve, and HAARP, by which they are trying to control the weather, the Rapture, the new world order, the mark of the beast, and the Antichrist are all dealt with according to the Word of God. “I recommend the entire book be read in order to experience the benefits of the author’s laborious efforts to cover the past, the present, and the future of our world.” —Rev. David Lathrem, associate pastor Lee Boulevard Baptist Church

Were Those Really the "Good Ole Days"? by Don Strong Pdf
The contents cover a middle aged middle-aged with two young children that sold their home and risked all by heading west in search of a fortune gold during the California gold rush in1849. Of course, they experienced some of the expected dangers, but also quite a few that they were unprepared for. In the book, the reader will enjoy learning about surprises that would be normally thought of in association with such a tough, rugged trip of this nature. The high point is the ending, which should not be read first. Unlike some writings, this would ruin the whole story. My hope and desire is that you thoroughly enjoy reading the story and tell friends and neighbors about it, in order that they can not only enjoy it, but also glean some interesting facts about life in a wagon train, as well as some interesting historical information. Good reading!
A fascinating tale of a young school boy's exploits in his quest to spot every steam locomotive in the UK during the 1950s & 1960s, until steam finished on British Railways on 4th August 1968. at the time I lived in North Hertfordshire, so my trainspotting days began mainly at Hitchin on the ECML. I later moved to Guildford and carried on from there. I was fortunate in that I recorded virtually all my activities and furthermore have retained those records to this day. In those days before computers and mobile phones Trainspotting was one of the most popular hobbies in the country. My travels covered virtually the whole of the UK over a 10 year period. During that time along with my friends we had lots of interesting and sometimes amusing incidents; such as the Castleford 'Snow' occurrence; contretemps with a herd of Bullocks; run-ins with the law and shed foremen; sleeping rough on many occasions; a scary walk over Crumlin viaduct; our coach catching fire on the M1; plus many more. we visited locomotive sheds over 600 times during which I recorded in excess of 21,000 engines! We travelled by any means available; coach; bus; mini-bus; bicycle; car; motorbike; train; ferry; and a lot of hitchhiking! The latter including one such ride on a 9F which took me right into the shed I was about to bunk! We would take every opportunity to be by our beloved steam engines, daily on the way to & from school, then again in the evenings and every 2-3 weeks off an a tour somewhere in the UK some of these lasted 4 -5 days, often with rather dubious overnight accommodation! these tours were to all parts of the UK, from South Wales to Aberdeen, the Northwest, Northeast, Midlands, North Wales, south to Brighton, Southampton, Isle of Wight, West country and dozens of other locations The book has full colour card covers, is A4 portrait style of 185 pages and over 100 B & W photos. At the end of the text are two appendices, the first lists every shed visited and the relevant dates, the second lists in chronological order every locomotive seen, its shed and date. Barrie
(In) a multi-layered book of great warmth and feeling, (Evans) reminds us anew of the Jewish southern inheritance, its ancient intensities and rhythms and heartbeats. This is a very southern book, and also an immensely American one (Willie Morris). The Jews of the South have found their poet laureate.--Abba Eban.
In 2016, on observing the 55th anniversary of their whirlwind courtship and marriage in 1961, Bill & Elin Walker reflected on how the first half of the 1960s, impacted and molded their world view, as they became witnesses to history in the making in what turned into a long ride with the military. This book tries to capture some essence of those times through recollections, letters, and stories from 1961 through 1965.
The book is the majority of the life of the author. It begins with the early thirties and proceeds to 2010. It includes entry of Mr. Nolen into three different branches of service. Then into the many professions that followed.
