Book Description
Wars come home with those who fight them--in a body bag, marred by injury, or living with a damaged soul. In 1973, Phin Davis returns from the Vietnam War with a stop at the Denver VA Hospital while fighting haunting images of death and struggling to find a personal reason for being alive. His father, Harry, had returned from war in 1945 after the USS Indianapolis delivered parts for the bomb dropped on Hiroshima and then sank, giving up so many of its sailors to the "gray men" below the surface. Still, Harry makes his living from the sea as a commercial fisherman. Completing the triad is Johnny Cobb, Harry's self-adopted "brother," who is the great-grandson of an African slave. Nurtured by Native American spiritualism, Cobb helps them both heal despite tragedy in his own young life. Johnny has never experienced war, but he protects Vietnam vets and gives them work, kinship, and solace as each follows his own physical and psychological path to wellness. Set in the American South between 1950 and 1973, In the Wake of Our Past weaves multiple tales of self-discovery after loss as each character learns how not be defined by personal tragedy. Phin, Harry, Johnny and their extended family and friends are not just survivors, but echoes of war's thunder who learn to love again and have peace in their lives.

Book Description
A seventh-generation Californian, Scott Tinley led the quintessential Golden State dream. As he grew from beach rat to lifeguard to a recreational administration major, it seemed only natural to him that he would try to parlay the athletic skills gleaned from this idyllic lifestyle into a profession as one of the best triathletes in the world. For twenty years, his skill, tenacity, and devil-may-care attitude guided him along the path. But when age took hold of his legs, and no amount of training would help, his athletic gold rush went bust. Cracks in his psyche began to show, as if beneath it all--like much of California itself--his athletic life had been built on a fault. Always introspective and inquiring, Tinley threw himself headlong into athlete retirement and the larger issues of life transition and change. His new journey, driven by his quest for personal growth and healing, was filled with pain, false starts, and heartrending intimacies. It led him to hundreds of other retired professional athletes who would openly discuss their own triumphs and tragedies. With much discipline, Tinley completed one of the most thorough athlete research projects ever attempted, and befriended such superstars as Bill Walton, Eric Heiden, Greg LeMond, Jerry Sherk, Steve Scott, and Rick Sutcliffe. Along the way he uncovered secrets about himself and the process of change, turmoil, and final acceptance, all shared openly and eloquently in Racing the Sunset. This book will do for athletes of every level what Passages did for an entire generation.
