Fangio fue sin dudas una leyenda del automovilismo, quíntuple campeón mundial de la Fórmula 1, es considerado uno de los más grandes pilotos de todos los tiempos. Esta biografía relata sus reconocidas proezas en las pistas, pero, sobre todo, echa luz a las sombras y da voz a los silencios del hombre de carne y hueso detras del volante. Ni el paso de los años ni la irrupcion de nuevos corredores en la constelacion del automovilismo internacional pudieron eclipsar a Juan Manuel Fangio. Su vida deportiva no deja de asombrar: entre 1938 y 1958 alcanzo 79 victorias y en la Formula 1 obtuvo cinco campeonatos con cuatro escuderias diferentes: Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Ferrari y Mercedes-Benz. Su desempeño fue simplemente arrollador y sigue despertando la pasion por el automovilismo, tanto en los fanaticos de las carreras como en los nuevos pilotos argentinos. El periodista Pablo Morosi realizo una investigacion exhaustiva y unica sobre el piloto balcarceño, que le demando mas de cien entrevistas y analisis de documentos y viejos archivos hasta ahora casi inaccesibles. El resultado es este relato atrapante que repasa la historia del Chueco desde su infancia y adolescencia en Balcarce, sus primeras competencias automovilisticas, la formacion del Equipo Argentino y la gloria internacional hasta su posterior retiro como empresario y presidente de Mercedes-Benz Argentina. Sin embargo, la investigacion no se detiene y se sumerge en los pliegues complejos de sus relaciones con numerosas mujeres y sus hijos no reconocidos. Su habil trato con el poder politico de turno: los conservadores en Balcarce, la relacion con Peron y Evita, el acompañamiento a la Junta Militar presidida por Videla o su simpatia por Carlos Saul Menem. El peculiar secuestro en Cuba. Es que su personalidad serena, el gran talento, la tenacidad, un extraordinario poder de concentracion y la astucia hicieron de Fangio un piloto deslumbrante que aprendio a mantenerse firme, acelerar en las curvas, sacar pequeñas ventajas y sortear imprevistos. Ese hombre oculto detras del volante que definio su trayectoria en pocas palabras: "Es mas dificil vivir que correr. Las carreras duran un par de horas, vivir dura toda la vida".

According to legend and a cursory look at Google, rugby was created in 1823. When William Webb Ellis allegedly picked up the ball, and ran with it, rugby was born. How true this is, we dont know. But what we can almost guarantee is that no matter how the game started, even after just one day of the sport being invented, some people will have said that it was better in the f***ing old days. As progressive as rugby has become (both on and off the field) many feel that rugby yesterday was better than rugby today. But do the stats back this up? Do the ill-informed opinions of the books author back that up? This book examines various aspects of the game, and judges whether rugbys best days are behind, or ahead of it. Let the debate commence . . . Hilarious, off-beat and (surprisingly) insightful, this is the perfect gift for rugby fans all around the world.

Depois de vivenciar "A Batalha de Berna", a Hungria teve que presenciar outro feito na cidade suíça: um milagre. O time ais temido e formidável do mundo sucumbiu inexplicalvelmente diante da Alemanha de Fritz Walter e perdeu de virada por 3 a 2. A Hungria fez 2 a 0 logo no inicio do jogo, com Puskas aos 6 minutos, e Czibor, aos 8 minutos. Aos 10 minutos Morlock diminuiu e Rahn empatou aos 18 minutos. Na segunda etapa, faltando seis minutos para o fim, Rahn marcou mais um, virando o jogo e dando o primeiro titulo mundial a Alemanha. Estava feito o "milagre".

All manner of equines helped build our roads, our villages, towns and cities. They were, for centuries, virtually the only means of getting ourselves and our goods from A to B. They became a part of our folklore and the subject of many an artists painting. They went to war, tilled the land and brought in the harvest, carried us in sporting activities and nowadays often facilitate our enjoyment in leisure activities. The Horse Lovers Miscellany celebrates this thinking by including fascinating, amusing, quirky and practical information likely to be of interest to every weekend rider, horse owner (both aspiring and current) and enthusiastic equestrian. The author focuses on many aspects; from equine ancestry to equine epitaphs; from dressage to showjumping; carriage driving to ploughing matches; pony clubs to polo and much more besides. Its an eclectic mix of fact, moving tales of endurance in the harshest conditions, eccentricity, quotes, amusing anecdotes and I never knew that snippets from both times past and the present day.

Anyone who has been at all involved in game shooting for any length of time will, over the years, have undoubtedly gained a great deal of knowledge regarding how to shoot a high pheasant, train a gun dog, use best practice incubation techniques and run a shooting day with expertise. Tried and tested, such knowledge is proven and sound, but have you ever had cause to ponder on some of the lesser-known realities and possible myths connected to many other aspects of the sport? Ponder no more for, in this book can be found the answers to almost any and every shoot day-related question that youve ever wanted to know. Within its covers are exposed the superstitions of some game shots and keepers; commonly held beliefs explained; facts declared fallacies and, conversely, theories that might, on first hearing, seem somewhat suspect, given credence as a result of scientific research. Can, for instance, a grouse fly faster than a partridge? Is it that, as it seems, a pheasants hearing becomes more astute as the shooting season progresses and could, as has often been claimed, a pheasant on the south coast of England during World War One have actually heard the sounds of military fire many miles away across the English Channel? Why was Napoleon once chased by rabbits and why might todays gamekeepers be interested to know of an Act passed by Henry VIII in 1566? Keepers and shoot captains alike will certainly be interested to read as to whether or not its true that some strains of pheasants are more likely to wander over the boundary than others, whilst those with dogs will want to know if, as is sometimes claimed, a good gun dog can ever be a bad colour. The truth behind the origins of some items of sporting clothing are explained, as are the reasons why one should never say goodbye to fellow Guns whilst standing on a bridge! In amongst it all, much mention is made of general rural life and weather lore. As to the latter, it seems that its more worthwhile taking note of some of the old sayings than it is modern weather forecasters particularly when attempting to shoot snipe in winter, or pigeons in the fog. Theres no doubt that this, at times, somewhat quirky tome will be of widespread interest to all who love being out in the shooting field at no matter what level. Well researched, and with outstanding tongue-in-cheek illustrations from the incredibly talented Bryn Parry, Hot Barrels! is sure to inform, amuse, entertain and educate.
