At the turn of the 20th century, Stamford was fast becoming an industrial powerhouse, quickly earning its nickname of "The City That Works." As manufacturing boomed and drew thousands of immigrants to the city, sports clubs formed at an equally rapid pace. Stamford's large and thriving industrial league provided a means for those working six-day weeks to let off steam productively and enjoyably. Stamford Sports covers the history of sports in Stamford from its earliest baseball and basketball teams in the 1890s through the burgeoning of sports of all types for everyone, brought on by the passage of Title IX in the 1970s.

How does a Christian live through heart-rending personal tragedy without becoming bitter or defeated? Night of Anguish, Morning of Hope is a rewrite of the true story of 12-yearold Dana Diane Mize, who was abducted from her hometown, taken to an isolated area, and murdered. Despite the horror of the circumstances, the reader cannot help but join Dana’s mother in praise to God for His grace and comfort during the family’s healing process. Dana’s parents, two brothers and a sister were shown, through faith, God’s Sustaining power and His ability to bring good out of evil. They have learned that understanding is not demonstrated by comprehension of circumstances, but by commitment to and communion with God. This is a true story of compassion, faith and forgiveness that can encourage everyone in whatever trial they are experiencing.
