"After a decade-long addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol, Charlie Engle hit rock bottom after a near-fatal six-day binge ended in a hail of bullets. Then he found running, and it has helped keep him sober, focused and alive. He began to take on the most extreme endurance races, such as the 155-mile Gobi March, and developed a reputation as an inspirational speaker. However, after he made the documentary Running the Sahara, narrated by Matt Damon, which followed him on a 4500-mile crossing of the desert and helped raise $6 million, he was sent to prison after failing to complete his mortgage application properly. It was while he was in jail that he became known as 'The Running Man' as he pounded the prison yard, and soon his fellow inmates were joining him, finding new hope through running. Now, in his brilliantly written and powerful account, Engle tells the story of his life and how running has brought him so much pleasure and peace. Like such classics as Born to Runor Running with the Kenyans, this is a book that anyone who has ever found solace in the freedom of running will enjoy"--Google Books.

"Autobiography of a Black Man: Run Charlie Run! Run Ed Run!" by Herbert J. Dixon is a remarkable story that began with two black brothers who killed a white man in Georgia. They escaped to Missouri, changing their names and leaving family behind. When the law closed in on them, they fled to California, where they lived out their lives. As the third generation in line from the brothers, the author based this book on stories told by his grandparents-life stories of a poor family. He also describes his own life from his childhood to adulthood-from the fields to the US Navy. He refers to this work as a black man's Grapes of Wrath...and Charlie and Ed started it all! About the Author Born in Sikeston, Missouri, Herbert J. Dixon currently resides in Victorville, California, with Flora, his wife of over forty years. A past member of the Masonic Order, he belongs to the VFW and is a senior citizen counselor. His favorite pastime is listening to all of the jazz greats and, most of all, dirty low down blues.
