In-4, brossura, in buono stato di conservazione. In questo numero: "Realta romanzesca nel Tigullio. Tre ragazzi di Genova si erano appena tuffati nelle acque di Portofino, quando uno di essi, Giuseppe Arboit, si senti afferrare a una gamba e trascinare verso il fondo, era un grossissimo polpo. Alle sue grida Aldo Occhipinti gli si avvicino cercando di riportarlo alla superficie ma a sua volta fu preso dai tentacoli. Allora il terzo, Edilio Belisardi, coraggiosamente si getto sul gigantesco polpo e gli rovescio la testa obbligandolo ad allentare la stretta. Gli stessi ragazzi, poco più tardi, si tuffarono di nuovo e catturarono il mostro." "Miracolo alla televisione. Anna Williams di Wichita Falls (Texas), paralizzata da un paio d'anni, e improvvisamente guarita mentre con il marito e i bimbi assisteva a uno spettacolo di carattere sacro, trasmesso dalla TV. Toccati da una scena commovente, i due sposi dissero, Preghiamo e recitarono un'orazione. Anna senti una voce, Alzati e cammina. Provo un senso di benessere; si levo dalla carrozzella e comincio a camminare con passo fermo e sicuro.".

iv, 87 pages. Reproductions of black and white photos. "I have written this booklet because I have found so many people know almost nothing about the evacuation of the Japanese Canadian people from the west coast during the war. At the coast, after Pearl Harbor, a Japanese family might be living next door to you and a few days later they were gone and no one knew where, particularly after they left the exhibition buildings in Vancouver. I feel sorry this story has to be told, in part, so that such a thing does not happen to any other group of people in this country. Tashme was established at the Fourteen Mile Ranch and the first families arrived in September, 1942. I have written mostly about the high school and its students but everyone in the community was effected by the events I have recorded." - from Preface. Author taught high school for two years in Tashme. Clean and unmarked with light wear. Two-inch rectangular patch of mild discoloration to upper right corner of front cover where label removed. A sound copy of this important history. OCLC Number 41799350. Book

br. L'edizione 2022 degli US Open ha ospitato l'ultimo match in carriera di Serena Williams, una delle maggiori fuoriclasse che il tennis abbia mai espresso nel proprio percorso ultrasecolare. Forse la Più Grande di sempre. Il libro racconta nei dettagli l'emozionante storia della campionessa statunitense, classe 1981: la difficile infanzia trascorsa nel ghetto di Compton, il precoce arrivo nel circuito WTA al seguito della sorella Venus, più grande di 15 mesi, l'esplosione ai livelli più alti, il primo trionfo Slam a New York nel 1999. Le rivalità più sentite e palpitanti. Gli innumerevoli stop per infortunio. Le grandi vittorie nei Major in singolare sono state 23, gli ori olimpici 4 (tre in doppio). La storia di una atleta, donna, mamma, che in 25 anni di attività ha cambiato il tennis femminile ed è stata di esempio per molte giovani tenniste. I segreti e i retroscena di una carriera lunga e gloriosa, la cui influenza ha travalicato i confini dello sport.
