Book Description
Can you recall the first time you rode a horse or galloped down an empty beach? The first time you heard the knowing “neigh” as the saddle shifted on the proud stallion’s back? Bring back those wonderful memories with this enormous 800-page anthology. Featuring personal insights from some of the world’s foremost equestrian writers, including Anna Sewell, Nicholas Evans, Cormac McCarthy, and others, it will surely pull the heartstrings of serious jockeys and casual riders alike. Traveling from the open plains to the cattle ranches of the beauteous Midwest, from the quiet seclusion of small town America to the clamor of New York, this special volume reminds us of all the little bits of wisdom we can learn from our equestrian friends. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, is proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports—books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team. In addition to books on popular team sports, we also publish books for a wide variety of athletes and sports enthusiasts, including books on running, cycling, horseback riding, swimming, tennis, martial arts, golf, camping, hiking, aviation, boating, and so much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to publishing books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked by other publishers and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Book Description
Philadelphia Phillies Slugger Ryan Howard, the 2006 National League MVP, steps up to the plate and goes deep with his greatest hits about life on and off the baseball field. The All-Star Home Run Derby King blasts out words of wisdom, and gives you the inside pitch on what it takes to make it in the big leagues. Go on a long drive with Ryan, from his early years growing up in St. Louis, through his climb up the mountain to the big show in Philly. Meet the characters and players who have helped shape the Big Kid's appetite for hoagies and homers. Learn how the NL Rookie of the Year came out of the crib swinging, and ended up singing the sweet tune of success. Round the bases with Ryan--from his school years slinging the trombone, to his on-field antics with a new band of brothers. Listen carefully to the first baseman's song, and you will hear the harmony and melody of an athlete blaring out notes with heart and soul. This book is suitable for young and adult readers --a good family story filled with quotes, baseball stats and information.
