Learning to Be Irish

Mt. Tam
"Mt. Tam": is an action adventure thriller about a natural disaster. Four hundred years ago, 38 miles off the coast of California, part of the Juan De Fuca plate was subducted under the North American plate. The cataclysmic forces from that event caused Mt. Tamalpais, in exclusive Marin County, to become an active volcano. No evidence remains from those early eruptions because the mountain is cloaked by an overgrowth of vegetation. The memories of the events are all but forgotten through time and Mt. Tam became dormant. Few if any residents living in the cities and towns in the shadow of the giant even knew its history.

What Makes an Elite Pitcher?
Elite baseball pitchers are elite for a reason. They seem to have it all: a variety of pitches that no one can lay a bat to; cool heads and confidence in their "stuff" when they get in a jam; and the kind of dexterity that makes difficult plays seem easy. Is elite status revealed through statistics? Though the author of this book considers statistics of both the traditional and sabermetric sort, he argues that the greats are proved not by broad statistical comparison with all other pitchers, but by their record against one another. In a thoughtful discussion of the evidence of head-to-head matchups, he finds the nine pitchers who make up the true elite: Cy Young, Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson, Grover Alexander, Lefty Grove, Warren Spahn, Tom Seaver, Roger Clemens, and Greg Maddux. For each pitcher the book provides biographical information, career highlights, and a list of the feats that put him in the record books.

Defiantly non-partisan, the empowering solutions outlined in these pages are a must-read for any American concerned about the current state of affairs.
