Deferred Glory: Heroes of the Baseball Negro Leagues is about the lives, struggles and desire of negroes to one day become professional baseball players in the Major Leagues. During this period of their lives, these players while playing in the Negro League endured tough traveling to ballparks in cities both in the South and North in order to play baseball. They suffered through segregation mostly in the South both on and off the field. These men withstood horrible treatment because of their dreams to become Major League baseball players. Eventually, these thirty-five players and executives were inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Unfortunately many were inducted posthumously. "It took the Baseball Hall of Fame decades-and not a little prodding-to do right by some of the greatest and best-loved stars of the Negro Leagues. It took Danny Ingellis six months, as an homage to a friend. Buck O'Neil would be proud." Jay Price, retired sportswriter, author of Thanksgiving 1959 "Deferred Glory: Heroes of the Negro Baseball Leagues is a home run! Travel back in time as author Dan Ingellis takes a close-up look of some of the men who played in the Negro Leagues, which provided talented athletes of color a place to play since they were not allowed to participate in the all-white Major Leagues until Jackie Robinson suited up for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. Ingellis details the rampant racism and terrible living conditions the players had to endure. Deferred Glory is a terrific read for any avid baseball fan." Joseph D'Amodio, sports journalist Staten Island Advance & SILive.com "As America moves through another step in its tortured race history, no debut book could be more timely than Dan Ingellis's, "Deferred Glory: Heroes of the Negro Baseball Leagues." The lively collection of brief histories of some of the Negro League stars robbed by our National Pastime's original sin of segregation is a primer on why the lives of men like Monte Irvin's should be taught in Middle School classes across the land." Cormac Gordon, Baseball Hall of Fame voter and former NYC newspaper columnist "Now that Major League Baseball has recognized the Negro Leagues as major leagues, and is endeavoring to import the statistics of the many players who toiled there for decades, "Deferred Glory: Heroes of the Negro Baseball Leagues" is a timely and fresh look at the stories of the players who excelled in the Negro leagues. Readers will be introduced to those trailblazers who paved the way for so many that followed. Their abilities, personalities, perseverance, and love of the game, are reflected in this easy to read summary which will be appreciated by every baseball fan." Mario Mattei, SABR member-Society for American Baseball Research

Winning the spiritual Race does not depend upon how fast you Run; it is determined by how you Run. There is a right way and wrong way to Run. Having an organized Training plan is your only chance to make it to the Finish Line. This book study will become a personal Training manual. Run will give you instructions and resources that will equip you to win the Race. The Christian life is often described as a Race one designed by God. In it, we are called to fulfill His purposes for us. We need to be in spiritual shape. Trying to run a marathon is very different from Training to run a marathon. Lets get fit we cant quit when the going gets rough. We can go through all the religious stunts, but unless there is a desire to Train to be like Jesus, few make it and many fall to defeat. A great factor in success is consistency. We may start out in front, leading, but if we do not stay consistent, we become entangled in the affairs of this life. God has called you to Run the Race set before you! Fall on your knees through this study and embrace your Race! Its possible to Run the entire Race, and even cross the Finish Line, only to realize you have been disqualified because you did not Run in such a way. Life is not a game with no lasting consequences. The way we Run has eternal consequences. Lace up, friend; you have a Race to win!

Wales has a centuries-long history of interest in Palestine and Israel, and a particularly close interest in Jews and Zionism, which has been expressed widely in the literature. Whose People? Wales, Israel, Palestine is the first monograph to explore this subject. It asks difficult and probing questions about the relationship that Wales has had with Palestine in the past, and now has with the Israel-Palestine situation in the present, and it challenges received wisdom about Welsh tolerance and liberalism. Using publications in Welsh and in English across several centuries, this survey examines Welsh missionary efforts and colonial desires in Palestine; complex and contradictory attitudes to Jews, and the use of Zionism and the Hebrew language revival as a model for Wales. Beginning with an analysis of a so-called tradition of Welsh identification with Jews, the study locates its origins in the early twentieth century, and moves on to uncover provocative material in Welsh conversionist writing on Jews, Muslims and Samaritans in Palestine in the nineteenth century, and imaging of Jews in twentieth-century fiction and the periodical press. It concludes with a survey of Jewish literary responses to Wales that suggests that some Jewish writers have been active agents in reinforcing Welsh support of Zionism in particular. The evidence uncovered here shows a complex picture of a unique cultural and political relationship. Whose People? Wales, Israel, Palestine makes an important contribution to international Jewish studies, to the study of British colonial involvement in Palestine, and to Welsh and Jewish literary and cultural history.
