A young devil-may-care Englishman, determined to report on the Soviet war and make a name for himself, makes a fateful commitment to a swashbuckling Afghan guerrilla commander. Not only will he go inside the capital secretly and live in the network of safe houses run by the resistance, he will travel around the city in a Soviet Army jeep, dressed as a Russian officer. Waiting in the mountain camp, from where Niazuldin's band of fighters lived and planned their hit-and-run attacks on Soviet troops, Ed Gorman discovers what it means to experience combat with men whose only interest is to be killed or martyred. Death of a Translator is a searingly honest description of a mind haunted and eventually paralysed by the terror of post-traumatic stress disorder. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Jim Downing reflects on his illustrious military career, including his experience during the bombing of Pearl Harbor, to show how we can be people of faith during troubled times. The natural human impulse is to run from attack. Jim Downing - along with countless other soldiers and sailors at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 - ran toward it, fighting to rescue his fellow navy men, to protect loved ones and civilians on the island, and to find the redemptive path forward from a devastating war. We are protected from war these days, but there was a time when war was very present in our lives, and in The Other Side of Infamy we learn from a veteran of Pearl Harbor and World War II what it means to follow Jesus into and through every danger, toil, and snare.

With access to recently released papers and other neglected documents, this sharp analysis of the intelligence world examines how and why these men and others betrayed their country and what this cost Britain and its allies. 'Historians fumble their catches when they study individuals' motives and ideas rather than the institutions in which people work, respond, find motivation and develop their ideas', writes Richard Davenport-Hines in his history of the men who were persuaded by the Soviet Union to betray their country. In an audiobook which attempts to counter many contradictory accounts, Enemies Within offers a study of character: both individual and institutional - the operative traits of boarding schools, the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, the Intelligence Division, the Foreign Office, MI5, MI6 and Moscow Centre. The audiobook refuses to present the Cambridge spies as they wished to be seen, in Marxist terms. It argues that these five men did their greatest harm to Britain not from their clandestine espionage but in their propaganda victories enjoyed from Moscow after 1951. Notions of trust, abused trust, forfeited trust and mistrust from the late 19th century to perestroika pepper its narrative. In an audiobook that is as intellectually thrilling as it is entertaining and illuminating, Davenport-Hines charts how the undermining of authority, the rejection of expertise, and the suspicion of educational advantages began with the Cambridge Five and has transformed the social and political temper of Britain.

When she was diagnosed with bilateral perisylvian polymicrogyria (an extremely rare neurological disorder), her parents were given a name for the monster that had been stalking them from doctor to doctor, and from despair to hope, and back again. Once they knew why Schuyler couldn't speak, they needed to determine how to help her learn. They took on educators and society to give their beautiful daughter a voice, and in the process learned a thing or two about fearlessness, tenacity, and joy. More than a memoir of a parent dealing with his child's disability, Schuyler's Monster is a tale of a little girl who silently teaches a man filled with self-doubt how to be the father she needs.

Jackson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 19 mins Language: English Release date: 01-24-18 Publisher: Tantor Audio Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Political Figures Summary: Facing death rather than enslavement - a story of one man's triumphant choice and ultimate rise to national hero. It was a mild May morning in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1862, the second year of the Civil War, when a 23-year-old slave named Robert Smalls did the unthinkable and boldly seized a Confederate steamer. With his wife and two young children hidden on board, Smalls and a small crew ran a gauntlet of heavily armed fortifications in Charleston Harbor and delivered the valuable vessel and the massive guns it carried to nearby Union forces. To be unsuccessful was a death sentence for all. Smalls' courageous and ingenious act freed him and his family from slavery and immediately made him a Union hero while simultaneously challenging much of the country's view of what African-Americans were willing to do to gain their freedom. After his escape, Smalls served in numerous naval campaigns off Charleston as a civilian boat pilot and eventually became the first black captain of an Army ship. In a particularly poignant moment Smalls even bought the home that he and his mother had once served in as house slaves. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Resumen:
La historia del pueblo ruso y la historia del S. XX mundial no pueden comprenderse sin conocer a fondo la vida de Stalin, su férreo gobierno y su férrea personalidad corrieron paralelos y su voluntad sacudió, en ocasiones, los cimientos del mundo.
Iosif Vissarionovich, Stalin, fue el hijo de un zapatero, un preso, un revolucionario, un líder militar y, entre 1928 y 1953 manejó a voluntad el destino del país más grande del mundo y la vida de sus ciudadanos. Su recuerdo aún genera una mezcla de terror y añoranza en millones de personas y la historia del S. XX no puede entenderse sin comprender a fondo su vida y el contexto en el que vivió hasta en sus más nimios detalles. Esto es precisamente lo que intenta Stalin, el tirano rojo, comprender la figura del dictador georgiano y del pueblo ruso que le tocó gobernar para aclarar un poco la controversia entre aquellos que defienden que fue un magnífico estadista que cogió una Rusia rural, de campesinos oprimidos y latifunduistas tiranos, y dejó una Rusia industrializada, una potencia mundial, y aquellos que le consideran autor del mayor genocidio de la historia universal.
Álvaro Lozano aborda la vida del dictador de un modo que difumina las fronteras entre la historia expuesta y la historia narrada, mezcla el dato con el estilo narrativo, y se estructura de modo que, en ningún momento se pierda la tensión. La obra parte de los momentos previos a la invasión alemana de Rusia y, tras relatarnos el momento álgido del gobierno de Stalin, la Operación Barbarroja, retrocede a los orígenes de Stalin. Desde ese momento la biografía avanza cronológicamente hasta 1922, año en que es elegido Secretario General del Comité Central del Partido Comunista de la Unión Soviética, en principio no es un cargo fundamental en el organigrama comunista pero Stalin conseguirá, desde ese cargo, a ser el poder absoluto de la URSS. Desde ese momento alternará la industrialización del país, su modernización y el reparto de riquezas basado en la Nueva Política Económica, los planes quinquenales y la colectivización de la tierra, con una época de terror caracterizada por las terribles purgas que desembocaban en ejecuciones o encierros en los terribles gulags, una época donde la política económica provocó hambrunas en Ucrania y desastres medioambientales como el del mar de Aral.
Razones para comprar la obra:
- La obra sintetiza una visión de la vida del dictador con una perspectiva global del sistema económico, político y militar del stalinismo y un retrato general del pueblo ruso.
- El tema de Stalin y del stalinismo es esencial para entender la historia del S. XX y aún la de nuestro S. XXI pues algunas políticas y muchos conflictos actuales son herencia de aquella época.
Una obra ecuánime que reconoce a Stalin su capacidad como regenerador del país y no oculta los terribles asesinatos del dictador.

This is a true epilepsy saga from age 11 to age 53. Don Miller has had epilepsy for 42 years now. Mr. Miller was discouraged by the lack of epilepsy-oriented books at the beginning of this book's conception in 2005. There were no books about epilepsy at the library, and books about epilepsy were few and far between back in 2005. Those that were written were by doctors and nurses; there was nothing for the lay-person that would help cure that error. Epilepsy: The Lightning Storm was one man's solution to that problem, an automotive format: the human, the car; the engine, the brain. We are all cars, and E-people just have faulty electrical systems. Milepost one - a detour from the "normal life". Gentlemen, line up your cars, start your engines, green flag, gun your engines, go, go go! Genesis of the epilepsy, the beginning of the electric highway and the ups and downs of epilepsy, depression, and paranoid schizophrenia: Noble Jameson, my first neurologist, said, "I've seen this many times before. When adolescence ends, your seizures will stop." My seizures will stop when adolescence ends; that was seven or eight years; seven years seemed a lifetime, eight years seemed an eternity. So began the mounting frustration and exasperation. That statement has echoed in my mind during a 40-year prolonged adolescence. The brain is like a car's engine - it controls what we do and where we go, and some of us have faulty electrical systems. In adolescence, testosterone shifted my brain into overdrive and flicked the seizure switch that controlled the firing of my spark plugs to the off position - it has remained there for nearly four decades. At the end of my sixth-grade year during the hot summer of 1974, my engine overheated and I had two tonic-clonic - known at the time as grand mal - seizures. At the time, I experienced ictal (seizural) amnesia. So began a 40-year-journey on epilepsy's electric highway. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Eerdmans Publishing Company Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Political Figures Summary: The first close examination of how Robert E. Lee's faith shaped his life Robert E. Lee was many things - accomplished soldier, military engineer, college president, family man, agent of reconciliation, polarizing figure. He was also a person of deep Christian conviction. In this biography of the famous Civil War general, R. David Cox shows how Lee's Christian faith shaped his crucial role in some of the most pivotal events in American history. Delving into family letters and other primary sources - some of them newly discovered - Cox traces the lifelong development of Lee's convictions and how they influenced his decisions to stand with Virginia against the Union and later to support reconciliation and reconstruction in the years after the Civil War. Faith was central to Lee's character, Cox argues - so central that it directed and redirected his life, especially in the aftermath of defeat. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
