Book Description
PAT CONROY—
AMERICA’S MOST BELOVED STORYTELLER—
IS BACK!
“I was born to be a point guard, but not a very good one. . . .There was a time in my life when I walked through the world known to myself and others as an athlete. It was part of my own definition of who I was and certainly the part I most respected. When I was a young man, I was well-built and agile and ready for the rough and tumble of games, and athletics provided the single outlet for a repressed and preternaturally shy boy to express himself in public....I lost myself in the beauty of sport and made my family proud while passing through the silent eye of the storm that was my childhood.”
So begins Pat Conroy’s journey back to 1967 and his startling realization “that this season had been seminal and easily the most consequential of my life.” The place is the Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina, that now famous military college, and in memory Conroy gathers around him his team to relive their few triumphs and humiliating defeats. In a narrative that moves seamlessly between the action of the season and flashbacks into his childhood, we see the author’s love of basketball and how crucial the role of athlete is to all these young men who are struggling to find their own identity and their place in the world.
In fast-paced exhilarating games, readers will laugh in delight and cry in disappointment. But as the story continues, we gradually see the self-professed “mediocre” athlete merge into the point guard whose spirit drives the team. He rallies them to play their best while closing off the shouts of “Don’t shoot, Conroy” that come from the coach on the sidelines. For Coach Mel Thompson is to Conroy the undermining presence that his father had been throughout his childhood. And in these pages finally, heartbreakingly, we learn the truth about the Great Santini.
In
My Losing Season Pat Conroy has written an American classic about young men and the bonds they form, about losing and the lessons it imparts, about finding one’s voice and one’s self in the midst of defeat. And in his trademark language, we see the young Conroy walk from his life as an athlete to the writer the world knows him to be.

Charted and Uncharted Waters.......2007-07-21
Conroy has doen it again! By writing about a losing team and the dynamics that it encompasses, it is cutting edge. As for his family background, there are many books akin on this subject. Conroy captures many moments so vividly, that one ends up on a courtside seat watching these events unfold in front of them. The only problem that I have with Conroy is that he is not a prolific enough of a writer to produce more!
Awesome.......2007-07-14
This book is not a something I would have picked up and read this summer, but it was on my son's summer reading list. Pat Conroy's voice came through loud and clear. I couldn't put it down. He is an amazing writer and you will feel his emotions as he retells his story of his "Losing Season". I laughed and cried all the way through the book. You do not have to be a basketball fan, which I am not, to enjoy this book. Excellent choice for a High School or College student summer read. Beware...strong language at times.
Pat Conroy Plays Basketball on the Couch.......2007-05-15
Mr. Conroy's story could be viewed in many different ways. I chose to see it as a story of someone who loved basketball and tried to honor his commitments despite an abusive parent and a dishonorable self-centered coach. If you do not choose to read it as the life of a young man who had a very strong work ethic and desperately wanted to succeed in life and in sports, then you might dwell on the psychology of an individual who seemed to be a masochistic martyr type. That person invited the abuse heaped on him by adult "role models" and women. It's more enjoyable, however, to read it as sports story in which the protagonist overcomes many obstacles.
Citadel Basketball Life a Tough Sports Trip.......2007-04-18
Pat Conroy, in telling the story of his senior year as point guard for the college basketball team at The Citadel, once again gives us a rugged view of relationships at a military school. Like "Lord of Discipline," we get an inside view of a very demanding life style which pushes daily life to the edge of reason. The adverserial relationship of player/head basketball coach is difficult to understand. But given the honesty and integrity of Pat's previous work (The Great Santini, Prince of Tides, The Water is Wide, etc.) we tend to believe what we are reading. As a former head basketball coach at The Citadel, I can state that the coach-team relationship does not have to be as Pat experienced. This was a well-written tale of a team's struggles to win against forces from within as well as from opposing teams.
Coaching 101.......2007-01-16
Once you start reading Pat Conroy's autobiographical story, you'll find it hard to put it down.
There is an underlying theme of family dysfunction from an abuser that sometimes makes you gasp. But the real lesson comes not from the fists of one abuser, but from the words from multiple abusers use that leave deeper scars than any fist could.
Everyone who coaches-- especially kids -- should read this book and see how a bad coach can damage not only a team, but individual athletes who don't have the self-confidence to see beyond a coaches judgment.
The book proves that winning may not come if you pit players against each other and can't make a team of a group of individuals. The athletically talented players and the mediocre players must gel to succeed as a team. Hopefully after reading this book, you'll never yell "Don't Shoot!" (or an equivalent, depending on the sport) to a player ever again.

A Great Life Lesson Learned!.......2007-01-12
My Losing Season is the story of The Citadel's '66-'67 season. Pat Conroy begins the book with a little background as to how he got into basketball and fell in love with the game, as a child in a military family moving from town to town every year. He takes the reader through his journey up until he arrives at The Citadel for college. While Conroy does give tremendous details about his experience at The Citadel, the majority of the book deals with the '66-'67 basketball season. Conroy takes the reader game for game through the ups and mostly downs of the season - their crazy coach Mel Thompson, the Green Weenies, the loss of confidence of the starting 5, and all the teams they play in the Southern conference.
As a reader you'll get to know these guys - DeBrosse, Cauthen, Kennedy, Zinsky, Tee Hooper, etc - you truly feel for them especially because they're real people and these games really happened! It's a great lesson on what one can learn from losing. Are those lessons more important that having a winning season? My only complaint was that since every chapter was really a different basketball game it got tedious at times. You definitely have to be a sports enthusiast to enjoy this book!
Stop the whining!!.......2006-12-25
I have a message for Pat Conroy: STOP YOUR WHINING. I read the book on a recommendation from a friend - however, I wish had not wasted my time on it. Mr Conroy did a masterful job of weaving the story of his life into his expereinces at the Citadel. But, personally, I could not take his whining attitude - the tough plebe system at the Citadel, his "Great Santini" father, his demeaning basketball coach, the reaction from Citadel alumnists over his bashing of their school. This book seemed to infer that he was suffering some inhumane, life-long injustice. Give me a break!! I regret that Mr Conroy's reputation as a great writer and the publisher's willingness to support this project allowed the book to be published in the first place. For anyone paying attention to the rest of the world, this book is a crock...one word of advice for Pat Conroy: suck it up!! Alas, I think it's too late for Mr Conroy. One other note: You would never, ever see wrestler write a book like this!!
A Fantastic Memoir.......2005-03-10
Conroy's fiction has always been a biography of sorts (Great Santini in particular) but I think his choice to chronicle his life through his final basketball season at the Citadel was brilliant. It brings together all the elements of his fictional life that we have come to love and respect: His overbearing father, the south in the 1950s and 1960s, and the one character common to all his books: Sports.
I think that Pat Conroy is the kind of person who most would envy the life he's had, it's ups and downs, and this book only solidifies that belief for me.
Disappointing, overrated.......2005-03-06
As a memoir of a relatively prolific and popular author, this book is a very disappointing. Ardent fans of Pat Conroy obviously love this book, but then again, they love everything with his name on it irrespective of content (a cook book?) Conroy revisits his early experiences that provided the repetivive themes in his fiction as psuedo-non-fiction. (The dialogue in the book reads more like fiction, and it is simply not credible that he could recount exact conversations from childhood to college.) He gives the reader minimal insight into his experience as a writer. Rather, the book reads like an exercise in self-therapy that does explore his well known issues rather deeply (although losing is not one of them.) Conroy may have provided all that he can in terms of describing his process and how he approaches his craft. If that is the case, then this book should serve as inspiration for aspiring writers. Publishing fiction is not necessarily about literary excellence. It's a business.
His treatment of losing is also quite disappointing, and I'm not convinced that his experience on an NCAA division I basketball team can provide enough material to speak to the subject as an adult. The book is more about mediocrity and unfulfilled expectations than it is about losing. His experience on a losing team is completely uninteresting and there are far more storied losing organizations that touch sports culture in many ways, all of them more significant than what Conroy has to offer.
Another 3 Pointer For Pat.......2004-12-31
Pat Conroy is a national tresure. His writing is sublime, he is one of the few writers who can capably place the reader into almost any situation and paint such a realistic portrait that the reader feels he is actually there.
"My Losing Season" is incredibly detailed, beautifully layered and provides the type of rich texture that anyone who has been curious about what a college basketball player goes through on and off the court will find virtually everything he needs to know here.
Anyone who has read Conroy's work knows of the destructive relationship with his father, but never has it been more fully nor magnificently analyzed than here. That Conroy could finally skip the veneer of fiction to re-tell his story with his father is a magnificent accomplishment. That final assessment when he reveals how his father literally changed his personality just to spite his son and prove him a liar was one of ther most jaw dropping passages I have ever read.
This book is Conroy's labor of love, and reading it is no different. Conroy's insights into the game of basketball, his teammates, coaches, and the bizarre situation of playing for the Citadel have been majestically re-told here. I have loved most of Conroy's work (Beach Music was the exception), and this one goes on the top shelf as one of the best books I have ever read.

Despite losing, Conroy scores.......2003-01-14
Although I'm not a basketball player or even a sports fan, I couldn't put this book down. The book is really about the coming of age of a young man, as seen through the experience of an intense basketball season at a military academy. The writing is full of wonderful metaphors, and smooth and easy to read. The emotional journey--like other Conroy books--is intense. The difference here is that the experience is so real. He's describing real people, and the narrator is Conroy himself. The depiction of what goes on at The Citadel may shock you with its brutality. Its amazing that Conroy can recreate his senior year in college so clearly thirty years later. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Moving seamlessly between his Citadel, the famous military college in South Carolina, athletic life and his childhood, Conroy gathers aroud him his college basketball team to relive its few triumphs and numerous humiliating defeats. Though a self-professed "mediore" athlete, Conroy shapes himself into a point guard whose spirit drives the team. He rallies the team to play its best, even while its undermining, destructive coach cries "Don't shoot, Conroy!" from the sidelines. Conroy has here written an American classic about young men and the bonds they form, about losing and the lessons it imparts, and about finding one's voice and self in the midst of defeat. Conroy's lyrical prose will make readers laugh and cry almost at the same time.

Victoria Cross Heroes
ASIN: 0750936959 |
Book Description
The year 2006 marks the 150th anniversary of the institution of the Victoria Cross, the pre-eminent British award for gallantry - and arguably the best-known worldwide. In this book John Glanfield concentrates on the story behind the VC's origins and relates the often extraordinary record of official interference in the award of this prestigious decoration throughout its history. In particular, the author's research casts new light on the mythical origins of the metal used in the production of the Victoria Cross. Illustrated with personal accounts, colorful anecdotes and tales of the later fortunes of those who survived, the narrative includes many examples of the holders and their deeds, briefly outlining the wider engagement in which each took place, from the Crimean War to the current involvement in Iraq.

Book Description
Observing the dramatic shift in world politics since the end of the Cold War, Peter J. Katzenstein argues that regions have become critical to contemporary world politics. This view is in stark contrast to those who focus on the purportedly stubborn persistence of the nation-state or the inevitable march of globalization. In detailed studies of technology and foreign investment, domestic and international security, and cultural diplomacy and popular culture, Katzenstein examines the changing regional dynamics of Europe and Asia, which are linked to the United States through Germany and Japan.
Regions, Katzenstein contends, are interacting closely with an American imperium that combines territorial and non-territorial powers. Katzenstein argues that globalization and internationalization create open or porous regions. Regions may provide solutions to the contradictions between states and markets, security and insecurity, nationalism and cosmopolitanism. Embedded in the American imperium, regions are now central to world politics.

A WORTHY READ FOR BOTH EXPERTS AND BEGINNERS.......2005-12-07
As a student of Peter Katzenstein, I am not sure that I can give you an unbiased review. Let me say first of all that, as an orator, he has managed to cultivate my interest in the subject.
In this work, I feel that his analysis - which is the result of thirteen years of study - proves to be very pragmatic and detailed. While he tends to focus on his areas of specialization (namely Germany and Japan) which can, but rarely does detract from the whole, the overarching theme of regionalism is brilliantly contructed. (In the final chapter especially, he depicts the S. American, S. Asian, African and Middle East concisely and specifically.) I recommend this work highly, especially if you liked Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations".
