Peasants and Other Stories by Anton Chekhov

Genuine fans take the best team moments with the less than great, and know that the games that are best forgotten make the good moments truly shine. This monumental book of the Philadelphia Eagles documents all the best moments and personalities in the history of the team, but also unmasks the regrettably awful and the unflinchingly ugly. In entertaining--and unsparing--fashion, this book sparkles with Eagles highlights and lowlights, from wonderful and wacky memories to the famous and infamous. Such moments include the 1960 Championship game where the Eagles managed to defeat the Packers, as well as the Terrell Owens saga and the untimely death of Jerome Brown. Whether providing fond memories, goose bumps, or laughs, this portrait of the team is sure to appeal to the fan who has been through it all.
The grandson of a serf who had bought his own freedom, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born in 1860 in the Crimean provincial town of Taganrog in southern Russia. His severe and pious father ran a small shop, and Chekhov, the third of six children, described his childhood as “sheer suffering.” Chekhov began writing merely as a way to supplement his family’s meager income while he studied medicine.
