Author: David James Gill
Narrator: James Cameron Stewart
The Long Shadow of Default focuses on an important but neglected example of sovereign default between two of the wealthiest and most powerful democracies in modern history. The United Kingdom accrued considerable financial debts to the United States during and immediately after the First World War. In 1934, the British government unilaterally suspended payment on these debts. This book examines why the United Kingdom was one of the last major powers to default on its war debts to the United States and how these outstanding obligations affected political and economic relations between both governments.

Author: Alexander Rose
Narrator: Mark Bramhall
From the New York Times bestselling author, the thrilling story of the Confederate spy who came to Britain to turn the tide of the Civil War-and the Union agent resolved to stop him. In 1861, soon after the outbreak of the Civil War, two secret agents-one a Confederate, the other his Union rival-were dispatched to neutral Britain, each entrusted with a vital mission. The South's James Bulloch, charming and devious, was to acquire a cutting-edge clandestine fleet intended to break President Lincoln's blockade of Confederate ports, sink Northern merchant vessels, and drown the U.S. Navy's mightiest ships at sea. The profits from gunrunning and smuggling cotton-Dixie's notorious "white gold"-would finance the scheme.

To Russians it was a pivotal landmark of their nation's losses, with more than two million civilians and combatants either killed, wounded, or captured during the bitter fighting from September 1942 to February 1943. Both sides endured terrible conditions in brutal, relentless house-to-house fighting.

Narrator: Kyle Tait
The Life Ledger is the applicable formula you need to achieve your personal, professional, and financial goals to guarantee your success. You've heard it all. Put positive thoughts into the world and success will come to you. Take risks or you'll never progress. Focus on goals, not dreams. Visualize your success and it will happen. There are thousands of books, mentors, seminars, life coaches, and online courses out there with a thousand assortments of different platitudes. These resources talk about motivation, inspiration, mindset, attitude, and setting lofty goals. Sure, it will give you the warm and fuzzies-but deep down, you know it's all self-help-bullshit. They don't give you the steps or the tools to implement what they are trying to convey. Instead of listening to someone who tells you what they think you need to hear, listen to someone who has real experience with changing their life through accountability. Listen to someone who has seen the inner workings of companies, who knows what makes them tick and the reasons why they stagnate, grow, and thrive. It's time to ditch the self-help books and give your attention, time, and resources to an expert. Me. Let's develop the ledger of your life.

The Kennedy Withdrawal: Camelot and the American Commitment to Vietnam (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BLXM3Y5L | 2022 | 10 hours and 53 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 307 MB
Author: Marc J. Selverstone
Narrator: Lee Goettl
In October 1963, the White House publicly proposed the removal of US troops from Vietnam, earning President Kennedy an enduring reputation as a skeptic on the war. In fact, Kennedy was ambivalent about withdrawal and was largely detached from its planning. Marc J. Selverstone reveals that the withdrawal statement gave Kennedy political cover, allowing him to sustain support for US military assistance. Its details were the handiwork of Defense Secretary Robert McNamara, whose ownership of the plan distanced it from the president. Selverstone's use of the presidential tapes, alongside declassified documents, memoirs, and oral histories, lifts the veil on this legend of Camelot.
