Paperback. Condition: Very Good. As a young boy in the late 1950s, Jimmy O'Farrell emigrates with his family from Ireland to Manhattan to bask in the dawn of a new life. Thousands of miles away, the family of Jaylen Jackson seeks to build a life amid Jim Crow culture in Mississippi. As teenagers, both boys struggle to come of age in a racially divisive world, suffering horrific tragedies that shape their characters and life missions. Jimmy seeks to define what it means to stand for someone when the chips are down, while Jaylen embarks on a journey to gain respect beyond the color of his skin. Fleeing the past, both families land in neighboring Bronx communities in the 1960s, where Jimmy and Jaylen's lives first intersect, on the basketball courts and then in the Vietnam jungle. Repeatedly tested as men of different races, their friendship faces its toughest challenge outside a Bronx bar-with fatal consequences. Truth Is in the House is an epic and provocative tale that plumbs historical and modern racial themes and explores redemption, forgiveness, and the power of connecting through the human spirit. …

Paperback. Condition: Good. Many in the public arena perceive the high school basketball coach as someone who rolls out balls in practice and then paces feverishly in front of a bench in a noisy gym for 32 minutes of action, directing and exhorting athletes to the pursuit of victory. Some might even see them as a glorified physical education teacher. Both perceptions are light-years from reality.Often unappreciated are the countless hours and days coaches devote discharging an array of responsibilities beyond what occurs during the heat of competition or the quieter domain of practice. High school varsity basketball head coaches, to get the job done, must assume multiple roles: administrator, coach, teacher, manager, leader, communicator and relationship-builder, community organizer, fundraiser, role model, public relations promoter and mentor. Each has its own set of skills and learning curve and each commands keen attention and continuous diligence.Together they comprise a collection of tasks that are both fascinating and dizzying.Prepping for Success contains everything aspiring and new high school basketball head coaches need to get acquainted with what the job requires, build a thriving basketball program and become effective coaches with long-term impact.It is easy to follow, succinct and comprehensive and an invaluable source for the new or young coach.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. California's Billion-Dollar SMART Train: America's Most Expensive Transit FailureThe Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART) train stands as one of the most catastrophic government transportation investments in U.S. history. After burning through over $1 billion in taxpayer funds, this suburban rail system carries fewer than 3,000 daily riders while subsidizing 94% of operating costs?making it among the nation's most expensive transit failures per passenger.The Great Train Heist exposes how political ambition created a "ghost train to nowhere" that primarily serves affluent commuters. The average SMART rider earns nearly $100,000 annually, meaning working-class taxpayers subsidize recreational train rides for the middle class. Despite promises to reduce Highway 101 traffic congestion, SMART's impact on vehicle miles traveled remains virtually zero?the diesel-powered trains often run nearly empty.Author Michael J. Coffino reveals the shocking financial mismanagement, misleading voter campaigns, and conflicts of interest that enabled this boondoggle. From hidden cost overruns to inflated ridership projections, SMART exemplifies everything wrong with government transportation planning. With sales tax funding expiring in 2029, taxpayers face a critical decision about continuing to subsidize this failed experiment.Perfect for readers interested in government accountability, transportation policy failures, and California politics, this meticulously researched exposé demonstrates how unlimited budgets and good intentions can create transit disasters that burden working families while serving only the wealthy. This is what every voter should know about the upcoming SMART sales tax measure.…
