A lot went on during the 20th Century. Much of those events were recorded by media. Newspapers, television and magazines were prominent during the first 70 years of the century. Writings by many individuals did not get published even though they wrote on important subjects. Samuel Darwin Ogden wrote a huge amount of his thinking on subjects people heard about in the regular media sources. What was more important? What everybody heard or saw in the news or what the man on the street thought? You will be amazed at what one mind can perceive. Welcome to the Writings of a 20th Century Thinker. Space, the earth's magnetic field, love, the beauty of nature and the peace of God were on this successful business man's mind. Enjoy this series and look for the next set of this series of Writings of Samuel Darwin Ogden.

Football is a game of numbers--fourth and inches, the three-man rush, a two point conversion, first down. Even with the obvious numbers in the statistics, rules and game situations, the players' uniform numbers themselves have become part of professional football and its lore. NFL players, like modern-day gladiators, are fitted head-to-toe in protective gear, obscuring even their faces from their most loyal fans. They have become largely identifiable through their uniform numbers. You cannot conjure up Larry Csonka without seeing the number 39 crashing through the line of scrimmage, or recall Lawrence Taylor without imagining the fear his 56 inspired in opposing quarterbacks. This comprehensive reference work lists all 32 current franchises of the NFL and includes brief team histories, statistics and interesting facts. Each chapter ends with an all-time numerical roster listing the numbers 1 through 99 (in some cases beginning with 00) and everyone, from Hall-of-Famer to replacement player, who has ever worn the corresponding number for that club. Four appendices are included.
The Orange Bowl has been played 88 times since 1935. Originating as the small Festival of Palms Bowl, meant to attract tourists to Miami, it has grown into a national football event watched by 16 million people. Beginning with Bucknell's first victory over Miami, this book covers each Bowl in detail, including the first game in Miami Orange Bowl stadium in 1938; Charles Bryant's breaking of the color barrier in 1955; the four national championship games of the 1980s; the move to what is now Hard Rock Stadium in the 1990s; and the new era of the Bowl as a semifinal game in the College Football Playoff.
