Soft cover version. An outline of the achievements of the Campbellville Baseball Club over the sixteen years between 1952 and 1967. When the team started in the fifties, Campbellville Ontario (Canada) was a small, quiet, remote hamlet and the team was composed of the local boys, many of whom had little baseball experience, but for sixteen years they were to dominate one of the top senior leagues in Ontario. This accomplishment is so unique that it is worth recording for posterity. This is actually a scrapbook comprising the newspaper accounts of most of the games played by the team between 1952 and 1967. It tries to adequately explain how this team achieved such great success and how it captivated the loyalty and love not only of the little village but also of the farming community for miles around.
This book is a critical study of South African literature, from colonial and pre-colonial times onwards. Christopher Heywood discusses selected poems, plays and prose works in five literary traditions: Khoisan, Nguni-Sotho, Afrikaans, English, and Indian. The discussion includes over 100 authors and selected works, including poets from Mqhayi, Marais and Campbell to Butler, Serote and Krog, theatre writers from Boniface and Black to Fugard and Mda, and fiction writers from Schreiner and Plaatje to Bessie Head and the Nobel prizewinners Gordimer and Coetzee. The literature is explored in the setting of crises leading to the formation of modern South Africa, notably the rise and fall of the Emperor Shaka's Zulu kingdom, the Colenso crisis, industrialisation, the colonial and post-colonial wars of 1899, 1914, and 1939, and the dissolution of apartheid society. In Heywood's study, South African literature emerges as among the great literatures of the modern world.
Calcium and magnesium are abundant in groundwater, but the role of groundwater as the essential source of these important nutrients is very often neglected. Hydrogeochemical studies have focused mainly on the distribution and behaviour of constituents that cause deterioration of water quality, such as: nitrate, nitrite or iron and manganese. Therefore, most recent books and papers concentrate mainly on these constituents and only a small number of papers describe the results of groundwater studies on other important water components such as calcium or magnesium. Calcium and magnesium are of great importance to human wellbeing and inadequate intake of either nutrient can impair health. The ma...

Three young men from the same ghetto with similar upbringings but they all have different goals and dreams. Through the “game” they slowly climb the ladder of success, but the closer they get to the top, the more obstacles they have to overcome. The life, fast cars and fast women; tax free money is what they call it, although that is not true. There are taxes to be paid; murder and lifelong jail terms. Are these young men prepared to pay up?
