Paperback. Condition: Good. Join veteran Pennsylvania State Police Detectives Fletcher Strand and Joe Bentsen as they unravel yet another complex series of murders. This time, they begin deep in a converted limestone mine where the body of a government executive is found, but was he murdered there or elsewhere? Who will have jurisdiction, the FBI or the PSP? Who would kill an executive said to be beloved by his employees? Why do the seemingly unrelated murders continue? Could the first killing be connected to a murder 20 years earlier?Once Strand and Bentsen begin to peel away the secrets of both the victim and so many possible suspects, they find themselves all over western Pennsylvania learning more about each victim, the crime ring to which one or more might be connected, and how their investigation reaches inner circles of the White House staff and a humble farm in the midst of Amish country.

Paperback. Condition: Good. The Most Important Innovation in the History of Football In 1913, a small, up-and-coming school came to West Point to challenge the great Army football team. The opposing quarterback dropped back, raised the football, and threw a perfect spiral to his wide open teammate. Again and again the quarterback and his receiver completed passes, resulting in a stunning 35-13 defeat of Army. That school was Notre Dame and the receiver was Knute Rockne: the game of football was transformed. The story of Notre Dame's passing attack goes back seven years, when the forward pass was first legalized as a means of opening the game up to avoid the fatalities that plagued early football and nearly saw the game banned. A student of the legendary Amos Alonzo Stagg, Jesse Harper, envisioned a mixture of precision passing and running throughout the game, and after arriving at Notre Dame, he schooled his team in his new-fangled approach. In Forward Pass: The Play That Saved Football, Philip L. Brooks introduces the reader to the dirt, spectacle, and emotion of the great teams of the early twentieth century, including Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indians, Stagg's University of Chicago Maroons, Fielding Yost's Michigan Wolverines, Johnny Heisman's Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, and Gil Dobie's Washington Huskies. While most teams experimented with passing, it was Jesse Harper and Knute Rockne who showed how the forward pass could be used as the ultimate offensive strategy and key to the brilliant future of football. …
