The Naturalist: Theodore Roosevelt, A Lifetime of Exploration, and the Triumph of American Natural History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 596min

The surprising story of intrepid naturalist Theodore Roosevelt and how his lifelong passion for the natural world set the stage for America's wildlife conservation movement. Perhaps no American president is more associated with nature and wildlife than Theodore Roosevelt, a prodigious hunter and adventurer and an ardent conservationist. We think of Roosevelt as an original, yet in The Naturalist, Darrin Lunde shows how from his earliest days Roosevelt actively modeled himself in the proud tradition of museum naturalists - the men who pioneered a key branch of American biology through their desire to collect animal specimens and develop a taxonomy of the natural world. The influence these men would have on Roosevelt would shape not just his personality but his career, informing his work as a politician and statesman and ultimately affecting generations of Americans' relationships to this country's wilderness. Pulling from Roosevelt's diaries and expedition journals, Lunde constructs a brilliantly researched, singularly insightful history that reveals the roots of Roosevelt's enduring naturalist legacy through the group of little-known men whose work and lives defined his own. ungekürzt.

Still Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 513min

Blacklisted in the photography business when one of her shots causes a scandal, but desperate to somehow continue in the profession, Avery Tate answered an ad for a crime scene photographer. She fully expected to be laughed at, but crime scene analyst Parker Mitchell hired her outright - taking time to teach her the trade. Now she's half in love with the man, half terrified to even acknowledge her feelings, and completely hooked on the job - until the next crime hits too close to home. Avery attends the gallery opening of a new photography exhibit to support her best friend who modeled for the show. The only image of her, though, is a chilling photo of her posing dead. Only the photographer insists he didn't take the shot, and Avery's friend can't be found. As Avery and Parker, along with Parker's brilliant friends, begin to dig into the mystery, they find themselves face-to-face with a dangerous, relentless, and deadly threat which could endanger them all. ungekürzt.

History of Liberia (eBook, ePUB)

The country of Liberia, the brainchild of the American Colonization Society, was founded in the early 19th century. Members of the ACS (as the society was called) believed that Black people would have better opportunities for both freedom and prosperity in Africa than they would in the United States. Between the years of 1822 and 1861 (at the outbreak of the American Civil War), more than 15,000 free-born and freed Black individuals relocated to Liberia. These Liberian settlers, who faced social and legal oppression in the United States, were joined by more than 3,000 Afro-Caribbeans. While the Liberian settlers carried their culture with them, they modeled their constitution and even their flag after those in the United States. Their capital was named for U.S. President James Madison, who supported the relocation effort. Liberia was the first African republic to declare its independence from European control. It was also one of only two African countries to maintain independence during what has been called the "Scramble for Africa" (when virtually all but two African countries came under European control). Anyone interested in the history of Liberia will be intrigued by this book, which, with its fresh take and historical perspective, is well worth reading.

The Forgotten Flapper: A Novel of Olive Thomas (Forgotten Actresses, Book 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 557min

A presence lurks in New York City’s New Amsterdam Theatre when the lights go down and the audience goes home. They say she’s the ghost of Olive Thomas, one of the loveliest girls who ever lit up the Ziegfeld Follies and the silent screen. From her longtime home at the theater, Ollie’s ghost tells her story from her early life in Pittsburgh to her tragic death at 25. After winning a contest for “The Most Beautiful Girl in New York”, shopgirl Ollie modeled for the most famous artists in New York, and then went on to become the toast of Broadway. When Hollywood beckoned, Ollie signed first with Triangle Pictures, and then with Myron Selznick’s new production company, becoming most well known for her work as a “baby vamp”, the precursor to the flappers of the 1920s. After a stormy courtship, she married playboy Jack Pickford, Mary Pickford’s wastrel brother. Together they developed a reputation for drinking, club-going, wrecking cars, and fighting, along with giving each other expensive make-up gifts. Ollie's mysterious death in Paris’ Ritz Hotel in 1920 was one of Hollywood’s first scandals, ensuring that her legend lived on. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jen Taylor.

Dr. Picton's Diet Dictionary , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min

Verily, verily, in the beginning I lost nine-and-a-half stone on a slow-carb diet modeled on that of Tim Ferriss in his book The 4-Hour Body. My book, Slow Carb 2, tweaking that diet, with extras including testosterone boosting and vegan options is worth a look. But the weight loss reached a plateau even with that excellent diet, so I decided to change things up a bit, the following are some of the diets I either tried, in some cases created or have been interested in since, with my reflections, in alphabetical order. You may come across one you like the sound of, or alternatively some you will then wisely plan to avoid! I am sure most if not all can be done more successfully and certainly more healthily than I have, so these are just my personal experiences and opinions.

The Long Hard Road Out of Hell , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 540min

When this best-selling autobiography was originally released, everyone was shocked: The Long Hard Road Out of Hell was the darkest, funniest, most controversial and best-selling rock book of its time - and it became the template, both visually and narratively, for almost every rock book since. Marilyn Manson is not just a music icon, it turned out, but one of the best storytellers of his generation. Written with best-selling author Neil Strauss and modeled on Dante's Inferno, this edition of The Long Hard Road out of Hell features a bonus chapter not in the original book. In the shocking and candid memoir, Manson takes listeners from backstage to emergency rooms to jail cells, from the pit of despair to the top of the charts, and recounts his metamorphosis from a frightened Christian schoolboy into the most feared and revered music superstar in the country. Along the way you'll hear what happens to fans - and celebrities - who dare to venture backstage with the one of the world's most dangerous rock stars. In the words of Elle magazine, the book "makes Madonna's infamous Sex seem downright wholesome in comparison". ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James Patrick Cronin.

And Then Mama Said...: Words That Set My Life Alight , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 412min

Tumi Morake modeled her public persona on her mother, a charming and contentious woman who used her big, bold voice to say what others were afraid to utter. It’s the personality that Tumi took on stage in the mostly male space of stand-up comedy and the one that gave her the courage to join a white Afrikaans radio station and comment about apartheid on air. But there’s only so much you can find out about Tumi from the stage, the screen, and the internet. And Then Mama Said... is the voice of Tumi in private, a behind-the-scenes perspective of a pioneering South African star who has been both deeply loved and viciously hated by her audiences. Tumi gets frank about the race row at Jacaranda FM, the Jaguar car accident that cyber bullies said she deserved, the body-shaming she endured on the set of Our Perfect Wedding, and her tumultuous relationship with her beloved husband. Throughout her story, she carries the voice of her mother, and with it the indispensable life lessons that made her who she is today. Narrated by the author. ungekürzt. Language: English.
