Have you ever just wanted to show the world that you mattered? Growing up in Albany, NY, Pat Shea faced many of the same challenges that befall so many adolescents: being the smallest kid in school, constantly getting picked on, being overlooked and taken for granted. A natural late bloomer, Pat quickly learned that he was fueled by other people's doubt or negativity, including his own, which created a competitive edge that he has carried with him his whole life. Pat discovered running at a young age and learned to use this as his primary source of competitive fuel as well as a coping mechanism for life. But as he got older, Pat found that adulthood brought far more adversity, heartbreak, and countless roadblocks to success. Additionally, his shy and introverted nature made finding true love difficult. Seeking deeper meaning and sense of purpose, Pat wanted to do something that would leave his mark on this world. One day, an epiphany inspired him to combine his two primary passions, running and international travel into one incredible life goal. But Pat would soon learn that the road to one's destiny is hardly ever paved.

Czars of the East is my humble tribute to two of the greatest exponents of Indian cricket who hail from the Eastern zone of India. They are icons not just for the youth in this country; rather their popularity extends across various demographic segments simply because of the way they have approached the game, conducted themselves on the field and off it and have been exemplary in making all of us understand the true essence of leadership. They are none other than Sourav Ganguly and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. What makes these two cricketers so special for millions across the globe is the way they have challenged conventions, norms and thoughts and have thus invented their own brand of cricket both as a player and as captain of the Indian cricket team, a responsibility that although make look glamorous to many superficially but is actually a nerve racking experience. Sourav and Dhoni have truly proved themselves to be the legends of the game in modern era through their achievements and accolades and the way they have mentored a number of junior players to enable them to evolve into key contributors for the Indian team on a consistent basis. This book has two major sections - the one dedicated to Sourav Ganguly and the other to Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Each such section further discusses a biographical account of the two players under several heads like The Formative Years, Marriage and After, On Top of the Game, Brand Endorsements, Miscellaneously Yours, Statistically Yours followed by a Picture Gallery dedicated to each of these two czars of Indian cricket. I sincerely hope that this humble effort of mine will be thoroughly liked by myriad of 'Dada' and 'MSD' aficionados like me and they will find this book to be pleasantly different in its approach and contextual treatment.

They called him "Homicide Hank," "Hammerin' Hank," "Hurricane Henry," "The Black Blitzkrieg," and "The Human Buzz-Saw," for he was the most ruthless destroyer of champions and challengers the sport has known.In all of boxing history, only one man has held the championships of three weight divisions at once: Henry Armstrong. This was in an era where there were only eight weight divisions. Still, there is more to his dazzling, unprecedented life than simultaneously holding the featherweight, lightweight, and welterweight championships. A Black sharecropper's son, born in Jim Crow-dominated Mississippi, Armstrong rose from the deepest poverty to achieve his life's ambitions. His opponents were not just some of the greatest fighters of all time (including Sugar Ray Robinson, Barney Ross, Lou Ambers, and Beau Jack) but rampant racism and economic despair. Earning great wealth in the ring and living the high life, Armstrong became a cultural icon, a world traveler, and a movie star who counted Mae West, Al Jolson, and other Hollywood icons among his closest friends. Yet, he was also a thoughtful man of peace, poet, and preacher who sought to improve the lives of others.Those who know boxing recognize Henry Armstrong as one of the sport's most exciting and accomplished champions. More importantly, he was a rare hero to an entire generation of Black Americans; his victories were theirs. Today, too few know his important story. Set in an America beset by racism, corruption, the Great Depression, and World War II, Homicide Hank chronicles Armstrong's remarkable life, from his humble beginnings to the heights of stardom and on to his post-boxing years as a man of God.Kenneth Bridgham received his degree in English from the University of Pittsburgh. He is a member of the International Boxing Research Organization, contributor to thefightcity.com, and author of The Life and Crimes of John Morrissey. He lives in Fredericksburg, VA with his son.
