- Fishing, Family and Friendship
198,95 kr. "For any man who has ever wanted to make his father proud and bond with his brothers, you must read The Perfect Catch. It's perfect for anyone who loves the outdoors, loves to fish, and is not afraid to put love back into the tricky dynamic of male relationships in the family and among friends." --Dr. Marty Becker, "America's Veterinarian" "Kevin has done it again. He always finds a way to use sports as a backdrop to bring people together. The Perfect Catch is a warm story that will touch you."--Jim Nantz, Sportscaster Seventy-three-year-old Bob Walsh didn't bother to ask his three adult sons if they would like to join him on a Thanksgiving week fly fishing trip to western New York before he booked and paid for it. It had been five years since all four men had been together, and they didn't have another five years to wait.As prized steelhead trout returned to the river to spawn where they were born, the Walshes retraced their roots, reeling in fish and each other; settling old beefs, reconnecting as friends, and bonding as men. And oh yes, one unforgettable fish was caught by the man who made it all happen. The Perfect Catch is written for men by a man. It is a book that wives will want their husbands to read, and a book that any decent man should have in his hands.

298,95 kr. Sit beside author Kevin Walsh, whose novel Tribal Bonds reads like a riveting fireside tale. The loves, dreams, challenges of three generations of the O'Toole family in St Louis, Missouri, from 1922 to 1994, spin out from page to page. When the clan's lives are turned upside down by a debilitating trauma, once again, their survival instincts and fierce loyalty are called upon. What will happen to each of them as they contemplate how to make sense of a situation that pits their faith against the desire for revenge?Perfect for Irish American Catholics from the baby boomer generation, Tribal Bonds will both thrill readers and remind them they are part of a huge community. There are also millions who observed their Irish Catholic neighbors with more than a little curiosity. These neighbors' parties were always too loud and too long, but if they joined in, they knew they would have a great time-just as they will while reading Tribal Bonds.
