Free Download And Then? And Then? What Else? (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CWPPDP57 | 2024 | 6 hours and 7 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 338 MB
Author: Daniel Handler
Narrator: Michael Crouch
You never love a book the way you love a book when you are ten. Writing as Lemony Snicket, Daniel Handler has led several generations of young readers into that special and curious space of being hopelessly lost, and joyfully finding yourself, in the essential strangeness of literature. The wondrous and perilous journey of the Baudelaire orphans sprung from the author's own path, from his childhood discovery of Baudelaire's poetry through the countless peculiarities of his pursuit of a literary life-abject failure and startling success, breakthrough and breakdown, concordance and controversy-lit along the way by the books and culture he loved best. At once a personal memoir and a literary exploration, a how-to book and a critical inquiry, a sequence of stories and a series of events, And Then? And Then? What Else? is a book not just for anyone curious about the creator of Lemony Snicket, but for anyone who loved books when they were a child, and still loves them now.

Free Download An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals and Other Works (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CYVN6KTQ | 2024 | 6 hours and 14 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 346 MB
Author: David Hume
Narrator: Jonathan Keeble
In his autobiography, David Hume declared unequivocally that this work, An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals (1751) is "of all my writings, historical, philosophical, or literary, incomparably the best." In it, Hume takes the discussion away from traditional attitudes where either rational or metaphysical issues govern moral principles. Instead, he introduces the human factor, introducing the sentiments and passions inherent in human psychology. Hume's "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" stands as a testament to his profound insight into the complexities of human nature and morality.

Free Download Amphibious Soul: Finding the Wild in a Tame World (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C92G1136 | 2024 | 9 hours and 48 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 269 MB
Author: Craig Foster
Narrator: Craig Foster
How can we reclaim the soul-deepening wildness that grounds us and energizes us when so much of the modern world seems designed to tame us? In this thrilling memoir of a life spent exploring the most incredible places on Earth-from the Great African Seaforest to the crocodile lairs of the Okavango Delta-Craig Foster reveals how we can attend to the earthly beauty around us and deepen our love for all living things, whether we make our homes in the country, the city, or anywhere in between. Foster explores his struggles to remain present to life when a disconnection from nature and the demands of his professional life begin to deaden his senses. And his own reliance on nature's rejuvenating spiritual power is put to the test when catastrophe strikes close to home. Foster's lyrical, riveting Amphibious Soul draws on his decades of daily ocean dives, wisdom from Indigenous teachers, and leading-edge science.

Free Download Alan Taylor, Graham Winton (Narrator), "American Civil Wars: A Continental History, 1850-1873"
English | ASIN: B0CSHJZZ5Q | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~17:08:00 | 471 MB
A MASTERFUL HISTORY OF THE CIVIL WAR AND ITS REVERBERATIONS ACROSS THE CONTINENT BY A TWO-TIME PULITZER PRIZE WINNER.
In a fast-paced narrative of soaring ideals and sordid politics, of civil war and foreign invasion, the award-winning historian Alan Taylor presents a pivotal twenty-year period in which North America's three largest countries-the United States, Mexico, and Canada-all transformed themselves into nations. The American Civil War stands at the center of the story, its military history and the drama of emancipation the highlights. Taylor relies on vivid characters to carry the story, from Joseph Hooker, whose timidity in crisis was exploited by Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson in the Union defeat at Chancellorsville, to Martin Delany and Mary Ann Shadd Cary, Black abolitionists whose critical work in Canada and the United States advanced emancipation and the enrollment of Black soldiers in Union armies.
The outbreak of the Civil War created a continental power vacuum that allowed French forces to invade Mexico in 1862 and set up an empire ruled by a Habsburg archduke. This inflamed the ongoing power struggle between Mexico's Conservatives-landowners, the military, the Catholic Church-and Liberal supporters of social democracy, led ably by Benito Juarez. Along the southwestern border, Mexico's Conservative forces made common cause with the Confederacy, while General James Carleton violently suppressed Apaches and Navajos in NewMexico and Arizona. When the Union triumph restored the continental balance of power, French forces withdrew, and Liberals consolidated a republic in Mexico.

Free Download American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good (Audiobook)
English | Datum: March 18, 2016 | ASIN: B01D3PUKYO| M4B@62 kbps | 10h 00m | 257.77 MB
Author: Colin Woodard
Narrator: Jonathan Yen
The struggle between individualism and the good of the community as a whole has been the basis of every major disagreement in our history, from the debates at the Constitutional Convention and in the run-up to the Civil War to the fights surrounding the agenda of the Progressives, the New Deal, the civil rights movement, and the Tea Party. In American Character, Colin Woodard traces these two key strands in American politics through the four centuries of the nation's existence, from the first colonies through the Gilded Age and Great Depression to the present day, and how different regions of the country have successfully or disastrously accommodated them. The independent streak found its most pernicious form in the antebellum South but was balanced in the Gilded Age by communitarian reform efforts; the New Deal was an example of a successful coalition between communitarian-minded Eastern elites and Southerners.
