    Kings of Queens: Life Beyond Baseball with the '86 Mets , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 552min
    In 1986, the bad guys of baseball won the World Series. Now, Erik Sherman, the New York Times best-selling coauthor of Mookie, profiles key players from that infamous Mets team, revealing never-before-exposed details about their lives after that championship year...as well as a look back at the magical season itself. Darryl Strawberry, Doc Gooden, Keith Hernandez, Lenny Dykstra, Mookie Wilson, Howard Johnson, Doug Sisk, Rafael Santana, Bobby Ojeda, Wally Backman, Kevin Mitchell, Ed Hearn, Danny Heep, and the late Gary Carter were all known for their heroics on the field. For some of them - known as the "Scum Bunch" - their debauchery off the field was even more awe inspiring. But when that golden season ended, so did their aura of invincibility. Some faced battles with addiction, some were traded, and others struggled just to keep their lives together. Through interviews with these legendary players, Erik Sherman offers fans a new perspective on a team that will forever be remembered in sports history. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Darrel J. Caneiro. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/peng/002779/bk_peng_002779_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Heroes Aren't Born: Survivor Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
    After a house party, James Ryan wakes to a truly different world, one where the dead walks, runs, rips, and tears and where he and his friends are forced to become the heroes they’ve always read about.Within mere hours of fighting off a hangover, James Ryan, college student and hopeful teacher, finds himself rallying his friends, finding supplies, and fleeing for safety in a world brought to ruin. But first, he has to convince them to go. Believing that his childhood home would promise safety for him and his friends, he leads them to the small town of Astoria, OR, the famous end to the Oregon Trail. James arrives at an empty house, his family gone and beyond contact, and even the family dogs are missing. Every bone in his body is crying out for him to yell, scream, and grieve the loss of his family, but instead, he turns his anger toward fighting the undead and protecting the only family he has left, even if it kills him. Though he will deny it time and time again, James quickly steps up to not only become a hero but to show his friends that heroes aren’t born, but forged in the fires of adversity. ungekürzt.

    Mookie: Life, Baseball, and the '86 Mets , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 453min
    They said it was the "Curse of the Bambino". They said "the bad guys won". Now one of baseball’s all-time good guys, New York Mets legend Mookie Wilson, tells his side of the story - from the ground ball through Bill Buckner’s legs that capped the miraculous 1986 World Series Game Six rally against the Boston Red Sox to the rise and fall of a team that boasted such outsize personalities as Darryl Strawberry, Keith Hernandez, Dwight Gooden, Gary Carter, Lenny Dykstra, and Davey Johnson. Growing up in rural South Carolina in the 1960s, Mookie took to heart the lessons of his father, a diligent sharecropper who believed in the abiding power of faith - and taught his son the game that would change his life. When Mookie landed in Shea Stadium in 1980, the Mets were a perennial cellar-dweller overshadowed by the crosstown Yankees. But inspired by Mookie’s legendary hustle, they would soon become the toast of New York. And even when their off-field antics - made famous by a contingency of the team called "the Scum Bunch" - eclipsed their on-field successes, Mookie stayed above the fray. In 1986, the Mets were a juggernaut, winning 108 games during the regular season and edging the Houston Astros for the National League pennant following a grueling 16-inning Game Six classic. In the World Series against Boston, in an epic at-bat that led to the Buckner error, Mookie would ignite a fire under the Mets, helping to force a Game Seven. New York would win to become World Champions. In an era when role models in sports were hard to come by, some tarnished by their own hubris and greed, Mookie Wilson remained the exception: a man of humility and honor when it mattered the most. ungekürzt.

    Walter Chandoha. Dogs. Photographs 1941-1991
    Die Welt scheint sich in Katzen- und Hundeliebhaber aufzuteilen - zum Glück gilt das nicht für Walter Chandoha, den größten Haustierfotografen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Er liebte die faszinierenden Geschöpfe gleichermaßen wegen ihrer einzigartigen Schönheit sowie individuellen Besonderheiten und fotografierte sie sowohl zum Vergnügen als auch für den Lebensunterhalt. Während der Arbeit an seinem von der Kritik gefeierten TASCHEN-Buch Cats wählte Chandoha seine Lieblings-Hundefotos für einen möglichen Nachfolgeband aus und legte Hunderte von Kontaktbögen, Abzügen und Farbdias in sorgfältig gekennzeichneten Kartons beiseite - viele davon waren zuletzt vor über 50 Jahren veröffentlicht worden, einige noch nie.Leider verstarb Chandoha 2019 im Alter von 98 Jahren, aber sein Vermächtnis lebt in dieser großartigen Fortsetzung, die dem treuesten Freund des Menschen gewidmet ist, weiter. "Walter Chandohas Hundefotos sind nicht nur deshalb so unwiderstehlich, weil Hunde über einen angeborenen Charme verfügen, sondern weil der Mensch hinter der Kamera sein Handwerk beherrschte," schreibt die Fotokritikerin Jean Dykstra in ihrer Einleitung.Wir begegnen über 60 Hunderassen, vom Terrier bis zum Collie, vom Beagle bis zum Bluthund, vom Elsässer bis zum Pudel, fotografiert sowohl in stimmungsvollem Schwarz-Weiß als auch prächtigem Kodachrome.Der Band erstreckt sich über einen Zeitraum von 50 Jahren, ist in sechs Abschnitte untergliedert und beweist einmal mehr Chandohas besondere Fähigkeit, Technik mit Vielseitigkeit und Intuition zu verbinden: Das Eröffnungskapitel "In the Studio" zeigt vor allem klassische Porträts; in "Strike a Pose" überbieten sich unsere vierbeinigen Gefährten in übertriebenen Posen; "Out and About" zeigt die Tiere, meist mit Chandohas Kindern, beim Herumtollen und Spielen; für "Best in Show", ganz im Reportagestil, besuchte Chandoha Hundeshows aus der Mad Men-Ära; für "Tails from the City" durchstreifen die Hunde die Straßeneines 50er-Jahre-New-Yorks; in "Country Dogs" schließlich folgen wir dem Fotografen zurück in die Natur, zu den Feldern und Stränden. Jede Aufnahme Chandohas fängt die außergewöhnliche emotionale Bindung zwischen Mensch und Hund ein und macht Dogs zu einer einzigartigen Hommage an diese treuen und liebenswerten Gefährten.
