Life in two worlds : a coach's journey from the reserve to the NHL and back / by Nolan, Ted,1958-author.; Masters, Meg,author.;
"Despite the personal rivalries, lies, bad intentions, and discrimination, Ted Nolan made it from a small northern reservation to the NHL. But after he won the Jack Adams Award as the best coach in the NHL, he didn't work in the NHL again for a decade. Why? Nolan's story is one of succeeding against the odds. He grew up in poverty outside Sault St. Marie, on the Garden River reserve, in a small house that had no running hot water or electricity. He made his own backyard rink and fell in love with the game. That love was enough to take him to the pros. It was the classic Canadian story: small-town kid makes it to the NHL. Nolan was drafted in 1978 by the Detroit Red Wings. But his real talent lay in coaching. Teams always got better when he was behind the bench. As a very young coach, he coached the Sault St. Marie Greyhounds to three consecutive Memorial Cup Finals. When he got his shot in the NHL, Nolan immediately turned around the Buffalo Sabres, earning them the title of "hardest-working team in professional sports." He took them deep into the playoffs. That was enough to convince the league that he was the best coach in the NHL. And yet, the Sabres failed to re-sign their star coach. In fact, Nolan didn't coach in the NHL again for an incredible ten years. This despite coaching the Moncton Wildcats to the Memorial Cup and shocking the hockey world by coaching tiny Latvia to a near-draw with mighty Team Canada. So why wasn't Nolan back behind an NHL bench? "If my skin were white," says Nolan, "I'd be coaching." This is a story then, of succeeding against the odds, and then having success stripped away. It is partly an angry story, a story of injustice, that makes this memoir a story of learning. It is a fierce look at one man's journey as he comes to know the wider world--with the courage to reach for the previously unattained, and the humility to recognize what really matters in the end."--

American breakdown : our ailing nation, my body's revolt, and the nineteenth-century woman who brought me back to life / by Lunden, Jennifer(Jennifer L.),1967-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A Silent Spring for the human body, this wide-ranging, genre-crossing literary mystery interweaves the author's quest to understand the source of her own condition with her telling of the story of the chronically ill 19th-century diarist Alice James--ultimately uncovering the many hidden health hazards of life in America. When Jennifer Lunden became chronically ill after moving from Canada to Maine, her case was a medical mystery. Just 21, unable to hold a book or stand for a shower, she lost her job and consigned herself to her bed. The doctor she went to for help told her she was "just depressed." After suffering from this enigmatic illness for five years, she discovered an unlikely source of hope and healing: a biography of Alice James, the bright, witty, and often bedridden sibling of brothers Henry James, the novelist, and William James, the father of psychology. Alice suffered from a life-shattering illness known as neurasthenia, now often dismissed as a "fashionable illness." In this meticulously researched and illuminating debut, Lunden interweaves her own experience with Alice's, exploring the history of medicine and the effects of the industrial revolution and late-stage capitalism to tell a riveting story of how we are a nation struggling--and failing--to be healthy. Although science--and the politics behind its funding--has in many ways let Lunden and millions like her down, in the end science offers a revelation that will change how readers think about the ecosystems of their bodies, their communities, the country, and the planet."--
