Ever look at a modern skyscraper or a vacant lot and wonder what was there before? Or maybe you have passed an old house and been curious about who lived there long ago. This richly illustrated new book celebrates Columbus, Ohio's, two-hundred-year history and supplies intriguing stories about the city's buildings and celebrated citizens, stopping at individual addresses, street corners, parks, and riverbanks where history was made. As Columbus celebrates its bicentennial in 2012, a guide to local history is very relevant.Like Columbus itself, the city's history is underrated. Some events are of national importance; no one would deny that Abraham Lincoln's funeral procession down High Street was a historical highlight. But the authors have also included a wealth of social and entertainment history from Columbus's colorful history as state capital and destination for musicians, artists, and sports teams.The book is divided into seventeen chapters, each representing a section of the city, including Statehouse Square, German Village, and Franklinton, the city's original settlement in 1797. Each chapter opens with an entertaining story that precedes the site listings. Sites are clearly numbered on maps in each section to make it easy for readers to visit the places that pique their interest. Many rare and historic photos are reproduced along with stunning contemporary images that offer insight into the ways Columbus has changed over the years.A Historical Guidebook to Old Columbus invites Columbus's families to rediscover their city with a treasure trove of stories from its past and suggests to visitors and new residents many interesting places that they might not otherwise find. This new book is certain to amuse and inform for years to come. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

In Players, Teams, and Stadium Ghosts, sportswriter Bob Hunter has assembled a Hall of Fame collection of his best writing from the Columbus Dispatch. Fans will encounter some of the biggest names in sports and relive great moments from games played by amateurs and pros. They'll encounter forgotten players and teams that struggled.Hunter shows us LeBron James when he was a 15-year-old high school freshman, already capturing the world's attention; 20-year-old Derek Jeter's meteoric rise through the minors, including the Columbus Clippers; a strange encounter with Pete Rose hustling frozen pizzas; and the excitement of watching future WNBA star Katie Smith dominate a Columbus Quest championship game. The common thread is the personal touch that Hunter consistently uses to take readers beyond the final scores and the dazzle of lights. These are the people behind the athletes. They're remembered for how they played, but Hunter reminds us who they were. - Häftad, Engelska, 2019

The Ohio State Buckeyes have been a powerhouse in college football for decades, with numerous national championships and NFL draftees to their credit. With such a successful history, it’s no wonder that the passion for Ohio State football has reached a level of devotion that has religious overtones. Saint Woody is a Bill Bryson–style look at Ohio State football and the spiritual fanaticism that surrounds it. Bob Hunter tracks the development of this powerhouse program from its earliest days to its heights under Woody Hayes, the de facto king of Ohio State football, and beyond.Hayes led the team to three national championships and a record of 205–61–10 over a twenty-eight-year period and was at the heart of the Ten-Year War, a particularly intense period in the infamous Ohio State–Michigan rivalry. Hunter also looks at the present state of Buckeye football and the team’s scarlet-and-gray-clad followers, as well as its legion of detractors, who voted Ohio State as the “most hated” college team in a nationwide survey. America loves-and hates-a winner. Irreverent, honest, insightful, and always entertaining, Saint Woody will appeal to anyone whose spirit has ever lifted when hearing that famous cry “Go Bucks!” - Inbunden, Engelska, 2012

Looking for history on our streets and street corners, in our parks and even in our backyards, Bob Hunter sets out on a journey across the Midwest in search of memorable moments from the days of the Old Northwest. Forts, trails, trading posts, Native American villages, battlefields, gravesites and landmarks, both remembered and forgotten, are all on his radar, as are places where acts of heroism, murder, butchery and massacre took place. He tackles the job with humor, curiosity and skepticism, tries to separate legend from fact, and introduces readers to the people he encounters along the way.
Readers will discover:
How the famous Fallen Timbers battlefield was found a quarter-mile from the spot where historians thought it was for two centuries.
How and where renowned Ottawa chief Pontiac was murdered and how his burial place has long been a topic of dispute.
How the most important early town and eventual capital in the Illinois country was swallowed up when the Mississippi River changed its course.
How the Iroquois got their name on a point in northern Michigan, hundreds of miles away from their traditional hunting ground.
How a poor translation of French written by a Jesuit missionary created the erroneous impression that Jean Nicolet was searching for a route to China when he landed in Green Bay, a mistake that became part of a well-known painting.
How the popular Indiana home of a future president, once site of negotiations with famous Shawnee leader Tecumseh, was nearly torn down to serve the purposes of a local water company.
How Bloody Run, a creek that took its name from a famous battle between British soldiers and Pontiac''s forces, is now above ground only in Detroit''s Elmwood Cemetery.
How Father Jacques Marquette received most of the credit for a historic journey over the Fox-Wisconsin portage to the Mississippi River, even though Louis Joliet was the expedition''s leader.
How a famous early Cincinnati resident was responsible for historians misidentifying the location of Fort Washington for 150 years.
How early French explorers once trudged through mud and leeches on a portage that stood not far from Chicago''s Midway airport.
Readers can simply enjoy reading of the author''s experiences or use this historical travelogue as a guide to exploration of these places at their own pace. Regardless of their preference, they are guaranteed to take a series of rewarding trips back in time.

According to Jesus, there are things we need to practice if we want to be saved. This book covers them in great detail!After twenty centuries of Christianity, and all of the opinions that have been expressed about what Jesus said and taught, it is hard to hear his voice after two thousand years of Christian interpretation and commentary. Sometimes believers cling to a few favorite things that Jesus said. Yet over the course of the four Gospels, portions of the Book of Acts, and the Book of Revelation, Jesus teaches on several topics that are vital to our salvation; topics which require our attention! This book quotes nobody but Jesus. It is written in language that is easy to understand, while retaining all of the integrity of how Jesus teaches us to live; which will allow us to live with him for the rest of eternity!
