"The biography of a coaching pioneer. In 2007, at the age of thirty-four, Mike Tomlin was hired as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Replacing Hall of Famer Bill Cowher -- and two years removed from the team's first Super Bowl XL victory -- there was immense pressure on the first-year head coach, who many fans and those in media were largely unfamiliar with. After five seasons as an assistant for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and a single season as the defensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings, the hiring came as a surprise to many. From his first day at the helm, numerous questions were asked: Was this young coach able to lead a veteran team that still had championship hopes? Did he get the job solely on the "Rooney Rule" -- named after Steelers' owner Dan Rooney -- which states that every team must interview at least one minority candidate for their open head coaching position? An award-winning journalist who covered Tomlin's hiring for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, John Harris works to pull back the curtain on the mystique behind this "coaching unicorn." Beginning with his days as a wide receiver at William & Mary, his several years in the college coaching ranks, to getting hired by Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy, Tomlin shares how a young man from Newport New, Virginia, was able to establish himself as a a leader of men in a business with so much turnover, earn the respect of his peers and players, and has continued to be someone admired by so many in the league."--

This Fictitious story highlights the power that just one solitary man's words can hold, and what he can achieve, by just simply telling the truth; Revelations that could rock the very foundations of the world we live in to its core, if known.Hidden for over two thousand years, buried under the sands of time with the hope they would never see the light of day again. With the hope that enough has been done and said to make sure, if this story was ever told, and the revelations it holds are made known to the world, no-one could possibly accept such an occurrence could have ever taken place and that the story which tells of these possible truths, is nothing more than myth.

The bloodiest battle in the history of the British Army.In 1916 the Great War seemed caught in a stalemate. The British were determined to break it with a huge summer push. By the time the campaign wound down in November, it proved to be the most destructive ever encounter for the Army, seeing thousands of casualties for every day of the conflict. It wasn't meant to have been like this: the British had a massive artillery superiority, and were primed to crush their enemy. In the end, despite fierce fighting, the Germans lost far fewer men. The Somme has come to be an emblem for the horrors of war, for the pounding of shells and the hunkering down in rain-sodden trenches. What happened? How did it go so wrong for the British? Here in sharp detail, the bestselling writer John Harris tells the story of one the key battles of world history, describing in gripping terms how a series of events soon spiralled wildly, and hopelessly, out of control. This is an unforgettable history of assault and bitter defence that takes the reader into the ferocious heart of a conflict whose scars remain today.
