In Only One Shot, V. J. Trolio, one of the world's foremost experts on coaching and developing junior golfers, presents his proven process to create a disciplined, structured, and loving environment for junior golfers and prepare them for success. Junior golfers, striving to fulfill dreams while dealing with a gamut of emotions and stresses, benefit from such a supportive atmosphere that only parents can provide. Only One Shot, a thorough guide to parenting junior golfers, arms parents with the tools and information needed so that their child’s dreams do not “melt into the sea.” As V. J. Trolio says, “While winning is an outcome we all strive for, the process of preparation is the key to unlocking potential.” In other words, parents have "Only One Shot" to:  Promote a growth mind-set among young adults pursuing the game of golf. Give junior golfers the tools of success in a fun, disciplined, defined, and caring golf culture. Promote strong minds and prepare junior golfers for the enjoyment of competitive golf and life.   As young golfers walk the fairways and build dreams of becoming college (or even professional) golfers, it is important for a parent or caregiver to be the educated “tribal elder.” Although PGA Professionals win awards and accolades for their ability to teach golf, they are a small part of the coaching team. Parents are the most important part of the team. Going into youth athletics without education on the emotional IQ needed has damaged many a relationship between a parent and child, and Only One Shot provides tools and tips to prevent that. More than a manual--it is a thoughtful and philosophical guide to life and the game of golf that whole families will benefit from. With Inspiring Insight from the untold story of Jim Gallagher Jr.

Memphis is a city of innovation and has reinvented itself time and time again. It has faced tremendous existential threats ― yellow fever, the Memphis Massacre, lynching, the Marting Luther King Jr assassination ― that would have devastated any other place. Yet, each time the city finds a way to turn the corner and order up a makeover. The inventions born from the struggles faced by everyday Memphians have changed the world. Memphis birthed the first grocery store (Piggly Wiggly), hotel chain (Holiday Inn), overnight shipping (FedEx), Rock N' Roll recording, the 'I Am A Man' march, and more. Memphis deserves a birthday. Birthdays are celebrations of history, progress, challenge, growth. As the chapters in this volume suggest, our community has had all that and more.
Memphis: 200 Years Together does what no other single book has ever accomplished: bringing together the best local writers and scholars to cover the breadth and depth of Memphis history, politics, culture, business, music, food, religion, sports, and art. From the Chickasaw Indians, the Civil War, and the yellow fever epidemic to the civil rights movement, blues to hip hop, and even a foray into barbeque and basketball, Memphis: 200 Years Together chronicles the triumphs and tragedies from the founding of Memphis to the present.
Rather than one unbroken narrative, this is a collection of key stopping points on the journey to Memphis’ bicentennial celebration. Like Maysey Craddock’s beautiful artwork on the cover, a thousand rivers 1, a visual celebration inspired by the Mississippi River, the stories in this volume flow across the Memphis landscape, taking readers on a deep-dive to explore where we have been over the past 200 years, what it has meant, and how it has shaped this community.

Memphis Jewish Community Center: Seventy Years of Jewish Connection is the history of a revered anchor institution, and it is also about remembering. After all, memory is more than tradition; it is the foundation of Judaism. Mentioned 169 times in the Torah, it is a religious imperative because remembrance is the vehicle for transmitting values and ethics, honoring those who have gone before us, and shaping what we are today and what we can be tomorrow.
 It is our intent that this book embraces both history and memory to tell a story that began with teenage boys motivated by an audacious dream, which evolved into the institution that is a national model for what a Jewish community center should be.
 Today, looking at the bustling Memphis Jewish Community Center and the remarkable inventory of programs listed on the video monitors, it is hard to imagine a time when there was no place where every Jew had a place of connection to gather, exercise, play, learn, create new friendships, and build bridges across established divides.

Early rabbis referred to a cemetery as a house of the living. Beloved promises to show you why. Since its creation 173 years ago by one of Memphis, Tennessee’s earliest Jewish settlers, the Temple Israel Cemetery has become a permanent place of beauty. It serves as an everlasting tribute to the history of the Memphis Jewish community, and it stands as a testament to the love of memory no matter where you live or where your loved ones rest. Through the keen and artistic eye of photographer Murray Riss, the Temple Israel Museum was able to create an unforgettable photography exhibit entitled Beloved, which is also the word most often used on the cemetery’s gravesites. Murray Riss spent countless hours photographing Temple Israel’s sixteen-acre cemetery for more than a year and through all four seasons. Through these exquisite photographs, now everyone can experience the solemnity and beauty of this sacred ground.Temple Israel Museum commissioned this book as well as the photographic exhibit of the Temple Israel Cemetery, Beloved, offering an amazing experience of the historic cemetery not often seen.
