Heretics and Believers: A History of the English Reformation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 2138min
Centuries on, what the Reformation was and what it accomplished remain deeply contentious. Peter Marshall's sweeping new history argues that 16th-century England was a society neither desperate for nor allergic to change, but one open to ideas of "reform" in various competing guises. King Henry VIII wanted an orderly, uniform Reformation, but his actions opened a Pandora's Box from which pluralism and diversity flowed and rooted themselves in English life. With sensitivity to individual experience as well as masterfully synthesizing historical and institutional developments, Marshall frames the perceptions and actions of people great and small, from monarchs and bishops to ordinary families and ecclesiastics, against a backdrop of profound change that altered the meanings of "religion" itself. This engaging history reveals what was really at stake in the overthrow of Catholic culture and the reshaping of the English Church. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Napoleon Ryan.

Wicked Portland: The Wild and Lusty Underworld of a Frontier Seaport Town , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 261min
In its youth, Portland, Oregon, was a bit like a rough-and-ready logging camp with a gritty, hard-punching deep-water port. Lusty lads dallied with hard-eyed beauties in dark alleys, and captains forked over “blood money” to buy men for their crews from shanghai operators. From the seedy waterfront to the notorious North End, Portland's sin sector offered vices packaged in pint glasses and perfumed corsets. Establishments like Nancy Boggs's floating bordello and city police chief James Lappeus's Oro Fino Saloon beckoned to the city's wastrels and grifters, votes could be bought for the price of a pint and opium flowed freely into the city with the help of friendly port officials. Join Finn J.D. John of the “Offbeat Oregon” column as he reveals the roughest, most colorful era of Portland history, when the Rose City developed an international reputation for violence and lawlessness. ungekürzt.

Masked Rider: Tales of the Wild West, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 397min
The Wild West After the bloody American Civil War ended, the rugged landscape that was the frontier West was soon flooded with all manner of immigrants - cowboys, pioneer settlers, and all manner of outlaws. In their path were the various Indian tribes desperate to save their way of life. Soon the mountains, plains, and valleys echoed with the sounds of gunfire, and blood flowed like rivers in these lawless territories. Then a masked man appeared on the scene, his twin Colts barking out justice. He and his Yaqui partner, Blue Hawk, rode these endless trails enforcing law and order wherever they went. He was known as the Masked Rider, and now he returns in three brand-new gun-blazing adventures by writers Erwin K. Roberts, Bill Craig, and Roman Leary.

Ralph Waldo Emerson: Selected Essays , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 584min
Emerson's ideas are alive and well and very much with us today. Consider that Emerson, now an establishment figure, was a rebel in his time. He could find no relevance in established religion. But, unlike others, he set out to reform it. Many of his ideas now seem obvious and as American as apple pie. But until he spelled them out, no one had thought that Nature was God speaking to man or that wisdom and knowledge flowed from an active not just a contemplative life - or that society might be hostile to new ideas just out of cussedness rather than conviction. His ideas anticipated Thoreau and Whitman, and this collection of his thoughts puts us in touch with the person who hatched many of the ideas that today are as much a part of us as the air we breathe. Essays included:"The American Scholar""Self-Reliance""A Divinity School Address""Love""Friendship""Prudence""The Transcendentalist""Compensation""Spiritual Laws" ungekürzt. Language: English.

Thoughts and Adventures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 635min
This wide-ranging collection of essays allows the contemporary reader to grasp the extraordinary variety and depth of the statesman's mature thoughts on questions, both grave and gay, facing modern man. Churchill begins by asking what it would be like to live your life over again and ends by describing his love affair with painting. In between he touches on subjects as diverse as spies, cartoons, submarines, elections, flying, and the future. Reading these essays, originally dictated late at night in the 1920s in his study as the 'pot-boilers', first published in magazines and newspapers, by which he was able to support his family and live like a lord without inherited wealth, is like being invited to dinner at his country seat at Chartwell, where the soup was limpid, Pol Roger champagne flowed, the pudding had a theme, and Churchill entertained lucky visitors with vivid conversation, dominated by himself. ungekürzt.

Wood Chipper , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 20min
Damien grew up on a farm with beautiful green pastures and lots of cattle. Even though Damien's life was the envy of his friends, Damien was dying inside because of the abuse from his father. Damien's father made him work all day in the blazing hot sun loading branches into the wood chipper. Damien was getting sick and tired of not getting anything to eat or drink all day. When Damien would ask his father if he could take a break, as tears flowed down his cheeks, Damien's father would call him names like sissy boy or tell him, "you're pathetic," and "I don't know why you were born." Damien's love for his father quickly grew into hatred. Whenever Damien would lay his weak body down for the night, he would dream of putting his father into the wood chipper, but Damien's anger hadn't quite reached that point yet of going through with his dream, but it sure was in the back of his mind. ungekürzt.
