Gone are the days of simple-solid and softpoint-bullets for a mere dozen-and-a-half African calibers. The sheer number of products on the market today staggers the mind and bewilders even experienced hunters. Boddington presents his information in clearly explained, bite-size pieces that we can digest, and in the process he gives us a solid understanding of what works and what doesn't. Many writers proclaim their knowledge of African hunting, but few have the true in-depth experience that comes from thousands of days afield. Safari Rifles II offers solid information based on vast experience and insight gathered over the last thirty years of hunting on the Dark Continent.

Assembled by one "Hollister Kopp," Gun Fag Manifesto was lovingly - and sincerely - devoted to guns, gun play, gun culture, gun counterculture, gun rights, gun art, gun porn, and . . . ammo. It was also one of the most psychotically inspired literary creatures to emerge from the black lagoon of zinedom, training its sights on an open range of politically correct targets and combining irresponsibly over-the-top polemics with unapologetically incisive gonzo reportage for an effect that was as smart as it was funny as it was irreverent. The subtitle said it all: "Entertainment for the Armed Sociopath."Alas, like some few other worthwhile DIY publications from that micro-era (the pre-Google 90s), Gun Fag Manifesto seems to have disappeared down the memory hole. To remedy this injustice, Nine-Banded Books has teamed up with Underworld Amusements to collect all three issues of Herr Kopp's legendary high-capacity zine under one cover. The new compendium comes locked and loaded with a new introduction by Hollister and a foreword by ANSWER Me! editor Jim Goad.

A captivating and wonderfully illustrated chronicle of one of the most influential and legendary names in gunsmithing history. John M. Browning was born in Ogden, Utah, in 1855, into a world of gunsmithing. His father was a gunsmith who was already well known for a number of innovations in the field. As a young boy, John spent hours in his father's shop and allegedly knew the name of every part of a gun before he could read. It's hardly surprising that at age twenty-three, he was filing his first patent for the "J. M. Browning Single-Shot Rifle." Browning inherited his father's gun making shop, and with funds of less than a thousand dollars, developed it into a highly successful business that developed several iconic firearms including the Colt Peacemaker. Browning also cooperated with Winchester to develop a whole range of small arms including semi-automatic pistols, single-shot rifles, repeater rifles, and machine guns. His enthusiasm and creativity have led many to believe he is the greatest firearm designer of all time. This fascinating book describes the Browning history, and in addition to covering the full range of inventions and designs, also shows various gun-making artifacts, copies of designers' drawings, and interesting photographs of the weapons in the hands of users. The History of Browning Firearms makes a perfect addition to the libraries of Wild West buffs and firearms enthusiasts.

Spend a day at the ballpark seated next to one of the smartest analysts of the game?and learn how baseball really works these days. On September 8, 2017, the Oakland A's hosted the Houston Astros in a game that might have epitomized the passing of the Moneyball mantle. Though this was just one largely meaningless regular-season game, the matchup of these two teams demonstrated how Major League Baseball has changed since the early tenure of A's general manager Billy Beane and the publication of Michael Lewis's classic book.Today, seemingly every pitcher throws mid-90-mph heat while seemingly every hitter is swinging for the fences. Today, pitchers and hitters alike can access reams of data and endless video in their relentless pursuits of perfection.It's not just the players, either. Armed with information, management has adopted revolutionary strategies and tactics, from radical positioning of fielders to teams essentially giving up on whole seasons even before the season.Does the shift work? What does throwing 100 miles an hour get you? Can you win with a homer-happy offense? Why would a baseball team need a supercomputer? Will umpires be replaced by robots? Why have home runs spiked lately? Have the baseballs been juiced, even as fewer players are juicing?While chronicling each inning as these two franchises battle, Neyer considers these questions and many more, with the help of dozens of interviews with players, managers, scouts, and front-office executives. It all adds up to this century's finest look at what's become of modern baseball.

Behind every pivotal winning moment in sports history lies an equally memorable moment of crushing disappointment.From Hank Aaron's 715th home run, which broke Babe Ruth's record, to Christian Laettner's famous buzzer-beating shot for Duke in the NCAA tournament?every sports fan recalls the winning moments that have shaped sports history. But often forgotten are the stories on the other side of these history-making moments, the athletes who experienced not transcendent glory but crushing failure: the cornerback who couldn't prevent the big touchdown; the baseball manager whose team was one strike away from World Series victory; the world-record-holding Olympian who fell on the ice. And while history is written by the victors, even the losers have lessons to teach us.In Losing Isn't Everything, famed sportscaster Curt Menefee, joined by bestselling writer Michael Arkush, examines some of the biggest ?disappointments? from the wide world of sports, interviewing the athletes and personalities at the heart of each loss and uncovering what it means to be associated with failure?months, years, or decades later. Telling the losing stories behind such famous moments as the ?helmet catch? in Super Bowl XLII, with the Patriots' Rodney Harrison defending the Giants' David Tyree; Mary Decker's fall in the 3,000 meters at the 1984 Olympics; and Craig Ehlo's giving up ?The Shot? to Michael Jordan in the 1989 NBA playoffs, Menefee examines the legacy of the hardest losses, revealing the unique path that athletes have to walk after they flop on their sports' biggest stages. Shedding new light on some of the most recognizable scapegoat stories in the sports canon, he also revisits both the Baltimore Colts' loss in Super Bowl III, as well as the Red Sox' loss in the 1986 World Series, showing why, despite Bill Buckner's years of humiliation, it might not have all been his fault.What emerges is a powerful portrait of the grit and resolve required to bounce back from the hardest losses. Illustrated with sixteen pages of color photos, this considered and compassionate study offers invaluable lessons about pain, resilience, disappointment, remorse, and acceptance that can help us look at our lives, our mistakes, and ourselves in a profound new way.

The reporter who broke the Houston Astros' cheating scandal reveals how a baseball team could so dramatically descend into corruption, with never-before-told details of a broken management culture, the once-revered leaders who enabled it and the scandal itself.Baseball, that old romantic game, has been defaced and consumed by corporate America. As Moneyball-thinking and Ivy League graduates grabbed hold of the sport, the Astros set out to build a cost-efficient winning machine on the principles of the outside business world, squeezing every dollar out of every transaction, player and employee.In less than a decade, ex-Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow helped revolutionize the game. He created an environment that led to one of the worst cheating scandals in baseball history, a Shakespearean tragedy of innovation and failed change management. Through years of extensive interviews, former Houston Chronicle beat writer Evan Drellich, now a national writer for The Athletic, delivers the definitive account of baseball's most controversial franchise and how a modern baseball team truly works?without the usual myth-spinning.Drellich reveals the rise and fall of the Astros to be a collision of subcultures. The team's top boss was a former McKinsey consultant who lived on the bleeding edge with no guardrails. He hired outsider after outsider to change the organization as quickly and cheaply as possible. The wins piled up, and so did the cash for the billionaire owner with a checkered business past. But not even a World Series title could cover up the rot.All of it came at a cost to fans, employees, and the sport on a whole. But as Winning Fixes Everything makes clear, ?The Astros Way? isn't going anywhere. Drellich uses the saga of the Astros' scandal to detail the evolution of baseball itself.

The Glock pistol is America's Gun. It has been rhapsodized by hip-hop artists and coveted by cops and crooks alike. Created in 1982 by Gaston Glock, the pistol arrived in America at a fortuitous time. Law enforcement agencies had concluded that their agents and officers, armed with standard six-round revolvers, were getting "outgunned" by drug dealers with semi-automatic pistols; they needed a new gun. With its lightweight plastic frame and large-capacity spring-action magazine, the Glock was the gun of the future. You could drop it underwater, toss it from a helicopter, or leave it out in the snow, and it would still fire. It was reliable, accurate, lightweight, and cheaper to produce than Smith and Wesson's revolver. Filled with corporate intrigue, political maneuvering, Hollywood glitz, bloody shoot-outs-and an attempt on Gaston Glock's life by a former lieutenant-Glock is not only the inside account of how Glock the company went about marketing its pistol to police agencies and later the public, but also a compelling chronicle of the evolution of gun culture in America.
