The Letters: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 314min
Is there any mystery greater than those we love the most? In this remarkable collaboration, New York Times best-selling author Luanne Rice and Joseph Monninger combine their unique talents to create a powerfully moving novel of an estranged husband and wife through a series of searching, intimate letters. By way of a correspondence so achingly real you'll forget it's fiction, they trace the history of a love affair and of a family before, and after, the moment that changed the course of two people's journey forever. Sam and Hadley West are both trying in their own ways to survive after the unthinkable loss of their only son in Alaska. For Sam, a sports journalist, acceptance means an arduous trek by dogsled across the bleak and beautiful arctic wilderness to find the place where Paul died. For Hadley, it means renting a benignly haunted, salt-soaked cottage off the Maine coast where she begins to paint again. Now, at opposite ends of the country, waiting for their divorce to be finalized, they begin to exchange letters by post, missives filled with longing and truths they've never before voiced, as they recall their marriage, its magic moments and its challenges, and begin to rediscover the reasons they fell in love in the first place. As Sam risks his life to reach the remote crash site, Hadley begins an equally hazardous inner journey to a rendezvous with the mad grief of a mother's heart. At the place where all else is lost, they will meet again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joseph Monninger, Donna Rawlins, Bruce Turk.

The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of Twenty-First-Century Fascism
In The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of Twenty-First-Century Fascism, New York Times bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio host Glenn Beck argues that the American way of life will not survive the Great Reset and warns us to stop it before it's too late to reverse course. An international conspiracy between powerful bankers, business leaders, and government officials; closed-door meetings in the Swiss Alps; and calls for a radical transformation of every society on earth-the Great Reset sounds like it is one henchman-with-an-eyepatch away from being the plot for the next James Bond movie. But the Great Reset is not a work of fiction. It is a highly influential movement among the world's elite to "reset" the global economy using banks, government programs, and environmental, social, and governance metrics. If they are successful and the Great Reset is finalized, it would put substantially more economic and social power in the hands of large corporations, international institutions, banks, and government officials, including Joe Biden, the United Nations, and many of the members of the World Economic Forum. In The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of Twenty-First-Century Fascism, Glenn Beck uses his trademark blend of humor, storytelling, and detailed analysis to reveal for the first time the unbelievable truth about the Great Reset, tying together nearly two decades of groundbreaking research about authoritarian movements and their efforts to fundamentally transform the United States. The roadmap to stopping the Great Reset begins with fully understanding what the free peoples of the world are up against, and no resource provides more information about this radical movement than Glenn Beck's The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of Twenty-First-Century Fascism.- Shop: buecher

Blood & Treasure: Confederate Empire in the Southwest: Texas A&M University Military History Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 692min
For decades before the Civil War, Southern writers and warriors had been urging the occupation and development of the American Southwest. When the rift between North and South had been finalized in secession, the Confederacy moved to extend their traditions to the west - a long-sought goal that had been frustrated by northern states. It was a common sentiment among Southerners and especially Texans that Mexico must be rescued from indolent inhabitants and granted the benefits of American civilization. Blood and Treasure, written in a readable narrative style that belies the rigorous research behind it, tells the story of the Confederacy's ambitious plan to extend a Confederate empire across the continent. Led by Lieutenant Colonel John R. Baylor, later a governor of Arizona, and General H. H. Sibley, Texan soldiers trekked from San Antonio to Fort Bliss in El Paso, then north along the Rio Grande to Santa Fe. Fighting both Apaches and Federal troops, the half-trained, undisciplined army met success at the Battle of Val Verde and defeat at the Battle of Apache Canyon. Finally, the Texans won the Battle of Glorieta Pass, only to lose their supply train - and eventually the campaign. Pursued and dispirited, the Confederates abandoned their dream of empire and retreated to El Paso and San Antonio. Frazier has made use of previously untapped primary sources, allowing him to present new interpretations of the famous Civil War battles in the Southwest. Using narratives of veterans of the campaign and official Confederate and Union documents, the author explains how this seemingly far-fetched fantasy of building a Confederate empire was an essential part of the Confederate strategy. Military historians will be challenged to modify traditional views of Confederate imperial ambitions. Generalists will be drawn into the fascinating saga of the soldiers' fears, despair, and struggles to survive. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James Foster.

Seven Wonders of the World: People & Places , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 8min
Learn about the Seven Wonders of the World with iMinds insightful audio knowledge series.2,500 years ago, people began to talk about the wondrous structures they had seen in their travels around the Mediterranean. In 222 B.C., Philo of Byzantium wrote an essay called “On the Seven Wonders”. The historian Herodotus had made his list a few hundred years before. But it was Antipater of Sidon, a Greek poet, who brought the Seven Wonders to life in 120 B.C. Antipater lived during the Hellenistic age, when the culture of the ancient Greeks had spread throughout the Mediterranean. Seven was a mystical number to people of this era. And Antipater’s Seven Wonders soon became tourist shrines, much like the Statue of Liberty and Eiffel Tower are today. The various lists which survived mentioned other wonders. This created confusion around the sixteenth century when there was a renewed interest in the ancient world. While the writers of that time generally agreed on six of them, the seventh Wonder was in dispute. It was entirely by chance that the list was finalized in the middle of the sixteenth century. A Dutch artist, Maerten van Heemskerck, made a series of engravings depicting the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. As he had never visited these Wonders, he could only use his imagination to create the images but they remained the general opinion of what the Wonders looked like. This changed more recently, when modern science was able to shed further light on all seven.

Meal Prep: The Complete Meal Prep Cookbook for Weight Loss and Clean Eating & 101 Amazing Meal Prep Recipes for Weight Loss and Clean Eating , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 262min
This box set includes two amazing meal prep cookbooks: Meal Prep: The Complete Meal Prep Cookbook for Weight Loss and Clean Eating Meal Prep: 101 Amazing Meal Prep Recipes for Weight Loss and Clean Eating In this fast-paced society of ours, we are always on the run. And as a result, we can't always make the healthiest of choices. In the midst of our rush, we often find ourselves trapped between the option of fast and unhealthy food, or in running late for work, school and life's other engagements. Many wish they could find some other way, but they have quite a hard time trying to find it. But I'm here to tell you that there is another way through this stressful and unprepared wilderness, and it is called "meal prep". This ingenious strategy allows you to take the little bit of time that you have and make the most of it to prepare quality meals for the whole busy week ahead of you. All you need, for example, is just a little bit of free time once a week, maybe as little as 30 minutes, in order to make preparations of your meals in advance. These strategically focused preps take care of the hard work such as chopping vegetables and cooking meat in advance so that when it comes time to eat, the only work that is left for you is the most basic of tasks - such as heating up the prepped meal in the microwave for 30 seconds. That's right, by taking 30 minutes out of your schedule sometime during the end of the week, you can successfully prep and pack fully-made meals that can be finalized in less than a minute when it is finally time for you to eat. ungekürzt.
