Outdoor Adventure Memoir

El primer recuerdo en la vida de Ander Izagirre es una explosión de gritos, saltos y abrazos en casa de sus abuelos: el gol de Zamora que daba la liga a la Real Sociedad en el último suspiro. A partir de ese primer recuerdo luminoso, Izagirre va tirando del hilo, recogiendo historias asombrosas de su familia, de su ciudad (San Sebastián) y de un mítico estadio, Atocha, en donde "se mezclaba el tufo fermentado y dulzón del mercado de frutas con el aroma fresco de la hierba recién regada y el humo de los puros".

The plan is simple. George and Ben have three weeks to cycle 1000 miles from the bottom of England to the top of Scotland. There's just one small problem - they have no bikes, no clothes, no food, and no money. Setting off in just a pair of Union Jack boxer shorts, they attempt to rely on the generosity of the British public for everything from food to accommodation, clothes to shoes, and bikes to beer.

Sixteen-year-old Matthew McGough was a fairly typical teenager, obsessed with getting through high school, girls, and baseball, not necessarily in that order. His passion for the New York Yankees was absolute, complete with a poster of his hero, Yankees first baseman Don Mattingly, hanging on his bedroom wall. Despite having no connections whatsoever with the ballclub, Matt dreamed of sitting in the dugout with the fabled Bronx Bombers.

Named one of Time Magazine International's 30 most important people of 2005, Maud Fontenoy presents us with a terrific, entertaining adventure story on the high seas as she challenges the Pacific Ocean - a feat no woman before her ever accomplished.

No hay guía turístico en este país más preparado que un aficionado errante del Murcia. Desde 1996 hasta 2016, el Murcia ha jugado en el grupo murciano de Tercera, el grupo catalán de Segunda B, el grupo andaluz de Segunda B, el grupo gallego de Segunda B, Segunda y Primera División. El Murcia ha visto mucha España, excesiva, y eso ha traído consecuencias: hay aficionados del Murcia a los que ya no les queda España por ver, hay aficionados del Murcia que ya han marcado todas las casillas.

Para Ignacio Martínez de Pisón (Zaragoza, 1960), el Zaragoza son recuerdos de Las Gaunas de Logroño y de goles de Felipe Ocampos en La Romareda. Es el desesperado braceo de Seaman en la final de la Recopa contra el Arsenal el 10 de mayo de 1995, las propiedades terapéuticas del gol de Nayim y recitar de carrerilla, con entonación de poesía escolar, viejas alineaciones del Zaragoza de su infancia.
