Specimen Days is a series of diary entries about Whitmans life, from his boyhood days at Rockaway Beach, to his nursing days in Washington D.C during the Civil War, and finally to his time in Camden New Jersey. His account of the Civil War Hospitals is painful to read, but his kindness and ministrations to the wounded soldiers (writing them letters home and giving them horehound candy) are really touching. He estimated that visited between 80,000 and 100,000 young men. My great grandfather was in one of those hospitals, so I like to think that Walt stopped by to give him some candy and talk. After the war, Whitman came down with an illness and was partially paralyzed. He moved to Camden and spent his afternoons outside in nature. He attributes his rebound in health to this time and wrote many essays about the outdoors and the nature around him.

The one that got away is the best-known phrase in fishing. Every angler has at least one story of being outwitted by a huge fish. A refrain of the angler, a taunt from those who live with them: it neatly sums up the way in which anglers are obsessed with the fish they almost caught. Yet to hear a fisherman tell the story of an escapee leviathan is to gain a great insight into why he fishes in the first place and why his sport is the most popular in the world. This is a collection of original stories from well-known angling enthusiasts and writers. They tell of unforgettable fish hooked and lost, of glimpsed monsters which haunt the imagination and draw the narrator back to a particular river or lake, time and again, in search of a re-match.David Steel loses his first-ever salmon after an epic struggle on the Ettrick; George Melly is upstaged by a giant Usk brown trout; Jeremy Paxman describes a fishing trip Sri Lankan style; Max Hastings is punished for being blase and Bernard Venables extending the definition of fish relates a thrilling but tragic whaling adventure in the Azores. Chris Yates, former holder of the British carp record, tells of his close encounter with an even bigger carp; David Profumo is humiliated by a 400lb shark; Brian Clarke has his angling life marked by a monster pike and Conrad Voss Bark actually helped his fish get away.

Los periodistas rosarinos Vanesa Valenti y Lucas Vitantonio escribieron una biografía imperdible de Gerardo Martino, que ayuda a conocer, en toda su dimensión, al sucesor de Alejandro Sabella. El Tata retrata como nunca antes los dias de la infancia de Martino: la escuela primaria con Angelica, su futura esposa; la secundaria con Fito Paez y el habito de deslumbrar haciendo jueguitos con una pelota de ping-pong; su pretension de convertirse en odontologo y el viaje de egresados trunco por la convocatoria a debutar en la primera division. El relato de sus dias como numero ocho no tiene desperdicio. Martino es el jugador que mas partidos jugo con la camiseta de Newells. Y tambien el mas expulsado. Fue pichon de crack, figura indiscutida y finalmente idolo. Pero tambien vivio dias duros, en los que fue acusado de traicion. Dicen sus viejos compañeros y maestros que le gustaba jugar del lado de la sombra, que era un poco remolon. Con eso, le alcanzaba para deslumbrar. Hasta que Marcelo Bielsa, sobre el final de su carrera, lo dirigio y consiguio que su juego tuviera mas intensidad. El tercer pilar del libro es el que descubre el mundo de Martino como DT. Quienes son los tres tecnicos de la vieja guardia que lo marcaron a fuego, que tomo el de cada uno de ellos y cuales son sus secretos como entrenador. Sus inicios sin fuegos artificiales, su salto a la gloria en Paraguay, el regreso inolvidable al club de sus amores y el fracaso en Barcelona. La alegria y la desazon. Dice el Tata que ya sueña con torneos internacionales y con dejar su marca, que su objetivo en la seleccion es ganar y enamorar. Agallas no le faltan.
