Detroit: Engine of America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 393min
This is the story of how a crude French settlement along the Detroit River in 1701 became the birthplace of the automotive industry in 1900. Forging the first industrial powerhouse wasn’t easy. Scant inbound supplies from the English colonies took months, if they arrived at all. The first 100 inhabitants led by explorer Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, with the guidance of Native American tribes, built a fledgling economy of fishing, farming, and hunting - the latter propelled mightily by the fur trade. As the populace sputtered and grew, they developed the machinery and skilled trades that produced - in volume - wagons, stagecoaches, steamships, hearths, locomotives, boxcars, furniture, stoves, equipment, marine engines, pharmaceutical drugs, and, finally, the horseless carriage. Detroit’s grit and brawn ignited ingenuity and self-sufficiency that thrust the first city in the Midwest onto the world stage. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: R. J. King.

Death in the Air: The True Story of a Serial Killer, the Great London Smog, and the Strangling of a City , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 570min
A real-life thriller in the vein of The Devil in the White City, Kate Winkler Dawson's debut, Death in the Air, is a gripping, historical narrative of a serial killer, an environmental disaster, and an iconic city struggling to regain its footing. In winter 1952, London automobiles and thousands of coal-burning hearths belched particulate matter into the air. But the smog that descended on December fifth of 1952 was different; it was a type that held the city hostage for five long days. Mass transit ground to a halt, criminals roamed the streets, and 12,000 people died. That same month, there was another killer at large in London: John Reginald Christie, who murdered at least six women. In a braided narrative that draws on extensive interviews, never-before-published material, and archival research, Dawson captivatingly recounts the intersecting stories of the these two killers and their longstanding impact on modern history. ungekürzt.

There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in. (Leonard Cohen) Christmas is approaching, and in Québec it’s a time of dazzling snowfalls, bright lights, and gatherings with friends in front of blazing hearths.
