An insecure 14-year-old boy learns to fly gliders to measure up to his All-American father. His success in the cockpit, especially in the high-stress world of sailplane racing--an exotic sport that, after 50 years and 20 fatal crashes, he will concede is "the riskiest thing I do"--provides the self-assurance to emerge from his father's shadow into manhood.Fifteen years later, a violent crash on the day of what should have been his greatest triumph threatens everything he has achieved and changes the course of his life forever. This is his compelling account of that tragic day and how the aftermath leaves him struggling to understand a world falling apart around him. It is also the story of how he comes of age again, rebuilding his life to achieve success on his terms while redefining what that means as a pilot, as a professional, as a marathon runner, as a husband and father, and, ultimately, as a man.

In All the Memorable Rounds, author Tripp Bowden asserts that it is the experience that defines a golf course. This includes the experience from the parking lot to the pro shop, the golf course to the caddies, the first tee jitters to the eighteenth tee with all bets on the line. The experience is at the nineteenth hole, commiserating over a pint to the ones that got away, raising a glass to the ones that didn’t. Bowden includes his own stories from some of the most noteworthy courses in America, while weaving in testimonies from fellow golf lovers and professionals. From Augusta National to Cypress Point, and many in between, the reader can live, love, and learn alongside Bowden and friends. Featured experiences include: • Playing a round at Palmetto Golf Club and discovering the never-before-told story behind course designer Alister MacKenzie. • Learning about Ben Hogan’s private table in the grill room at Shady Oaks and learning the true secret to the Hogan swing. • Reliving the game of golf for the first time again at a municipal golf course in Augusta, Georgia, called the Cabbage Patch, through the eyes of a nine-year-old first-time golfer. All the Memorable Rounds goes beyond the slope ratings and dives deep into the experiences that make the game of golf one of the oldest and most celebrated in the world.

A “fascinatingly readable” novel that ponders “where the personal becomes the political or if it is possible to maintain a distinction at all” (Miami Herald). In his fifty-four years in the US Senate, Kim Malone made a difference. Emulating FDR, he advocated and agitated, fighting for the ideals in which he believed. His son, Alec, however, was a different story—one Kim thinks on as he lies on his deathbed, with only the prodigal Alec for company. Eschewing his congressional heritage for a career as a newspaper photographer and distancing himself even further from politics by refusing to cover the Vietnam War, Alec has seemed to live a never-ending series of misadventures, complete with a failed marriage and a floundering vocation. So when his long-absent father-in-law, an antifascist commando from Czechoslovakia, appears on his doorstep, Alec finds himself confronting uncomfortable truths about his life, his choices, and the pasts of those surrounding him. Ward Just has been praised as “one of the most astute writers of American fiction,” and Exiles in the Garden stands as one of his most challenging, insightful, and compulsively readable works—an examination of personal morality, American politics, and the universal desires that bind us all (The New York Times Book Review).
