    Praise for Coach Davies and Renegade Tra i n i n g “In my 20 years of coaching, I have been fortunate to have been associated with a lot of top quality coaches. When I think of someone whom I would want to send my kids to for speed and quickness development along with a new approach to overall training methods, the one who comes to mind first and foremost is John Davies. I have personally watched him interact on the field and have had the opportunity to send a lot of my athletes to him and everyone one of them have made incredible gains in all as p e c t s . John is unique with his style, he has cutting edge techniques, but what impresses me most is the way he puts things into a simplified and easy to understand methods that can be ta i l o r ed to athletes at all levels. Undoubtedly you will find John’s Renegade Training for Football to be both rew a rd i n g and ref r eshing!! Enjoy!!” —Steve Mooshagian, Wide Receiver Coach, Cincinnati Bengals “I just wanted to thank you for all of the power-speed programs you have developed for our football program the past two years. We continue to make tremendous prog r ess in the ar ea of speed development and conditioning. The individual programs you have developed by position serves as a motivational tool for our players. Our players have responded well to the position specific training regiments. The blend of 100% sprint work with agility, in t e r val training, resistance sprints, tempo sprints, GPP, SPP, and power-speed drills is trul y outstanding.

  • Dante's Inferno</H1>
    Dante's Inferno Dante's Inferno The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri Translated by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Volume 1 This is all of Longfellow's Dante translation of Inferno minus the illustrations. It includes the arguments prefixed to the Cantos by the Rev. Henry Frances Carey, M,.A., in his well-known version, and also his chronological view of the age of Dante under the title of What was happening in the World while Dante Lived. If you find any correctable errors please notify me. My email addresses for now are [email protected] and [email protected]. David Reed Editorial Note page 1 / 554 A lady who knew Italy and the Italian people well, some thirty years ago, once remarked to the writer that Longfellow must have lived in every city in that county for almost all the educated Italians "talk as if they owned him." And they have certainly a right to a sense of possessing him, to be proud of him, and to be grateful to him, for the work which he did for the spread of the knowledge of Italian Literature in the article in the tenth volume on Dante as a Translator. * * * * * The three volumes of "The Divine Comedy" were printed for private purposes, as will be described later, in 1865-1866 and 1877, but they were not actually given to the public until the year last named. Naturally enough, ever since Longfellow's first visit to Europe (1826-1829), and no doubt from an eariler date still, he had been interested in Dante's great work, but though the period of the incubation of his translation was a long one, the actual time engaged in it, was as he himself informs us, exactly two years.
