    In May 1861, Virginian Thomas Henry Carter raised an artillery battery and joined the Confederate Army. Over the next four years, he rose steadily in rank from captain to colonel, placing him among the senior artillerists in Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. During the war, Carter wrote more than 100 revealing letters to his wife, Susan, about his service. His interactions with prominent officers - including Lee, Jubal A.Early, John B. Gordon, Robert E. Rodes, and others - come to life in Carter's astute comments about their conduct and personalities. Combining insightful observations on military operations, particularly of the Battles of Antietam and Spotsylvania Court House and the 1864 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, with revealing notes on the home front and the debate over the impressment and arming of slaves, Carter's letters are particularly interesting because his writing is not overly burdened by the rhetoric of the southern ruling class. Here, Graham Dozier offers the definitive edition of Carter's letters, meticulously transcribed and carefully annotated. This impressive collection brings to light Carter's unvarnished opinions of the people and events that shaped his wartime experience, shedding new light on Lee's army and Confederate life in Virginia. ungekürzt.

    Polyamory can be so ho-hum. Susie starts with the story of a suburban grandmother who is completely unfazed by her daughter's alternative lifestyle. That story falls squarely in the category of ones Susie would like to see more of. In the opposite corner, in the category of stories Susie would like to see less of, is Kurt Eichenwald's recent investigative piece in the New York Times entitled, "Through His Webcam, a Boy Joins a Sordid Online World." Susie says the problem with these stories is the create fear and titillation instead of arming veryone with real facts about who and what's at risk in the "scary" world of the Internet. Then, in the Try This at Home mailbag, Susie hears from an 18 year old woman who is very afraid she's going to turn out to be one of those non-orgasmic women she's read so much about.

    Few cities epitomize the best and worst of the United States like Detroit, which started as a remote trading post and grew into an industrious town before exploding into a bustling city. That city then fell, leaving a legacy of anger and despair only recently beginning to turn things around.  At the same time, the same mighty city that proved capable of arming a nation at war found itself seething with social conflict. The massive labor force fought hard for their rights, as did the African-Americans fleeing Jim Crow in the South. Through conflict, compromise, and industry, Detroit, but like many others across the nation, the city failed to prepare for a post-industrial age, and the once prosperous city descended into disrepair and disuse. From that despair came anger, then resolution. Detroit would rebuild, and though those efforts were in many ways successful, the city is still reaching for its former glory.  Motor City: The History of the Fur Trade Outpost that Became Detroit looks at the history of one of the Midwest’s biggest cities. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about Detroit like never before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

    F--k Content Marketing isn’t a book for content marketers. Instead, it’s for everyone in the organization who needs better context and direction for how to drive demand, revenue, and relationships with content. Truly effective companies (and marketers) create content experiences, drawing the customer into an immersive infinite scroll that mirrors the consumer experience of Netflix, Spotify, and other billion-dollar brands. Randy Frisch will push you to rethink how you approach content for complex buyer journeys. The current mind-set is all about volume - the more content created, the better. But the reality is that almost 70 percent of content created within an organization is never used, and there’s little point investing in content marketing if you’re not leveraging the assets you create. In this book, Frisch unpacks the Content Experience Framework, arming your organization to deliver personalized experiences that leverage your content to engage your audiences at scale - as well as identify and ramp up the key players in your organization who need to own this process. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.  ungekürzt.
