    The Pink Lady
    Acclaimed author Sally Denton brings to life every dimension of the extraordinary Helen Gahagan Douglas in The Pink Lady, a compelling account of Douglas's incomparable life as stage star, politician, and public intellectual. A three-term congresswoman who ran for the U.S. Senate against Richard Nixon just thirty years after women gained the right to vote, Douglas was also a Broadway star, opera prima donna, friend of FDR, lover of LBJ, and passionate New Dealer. Tagged "The Pink Lady" during a brutal 1950 Senate campaign waged by Nixon and brought down by the same McCarthyist anti-Red hysteria that was sweeping Hollywood, Douglas is restored through Denton's rich narrative to her rightful place as a pioneer in American politics and torchbearer for progressive ideals.

    Underdogma: How America's Enemies Use Our Love for the Underdog to Trash American Power , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 449min
    Underdogma is a new "idea book" that shows how our love/hate relationship with power - and those who have power - shape how we look at the world. For many people, those who have less power (underdogs) can do no wrong, even when we do wrong, and those who have more power can do no right - even when they do right. Michael Prell gave this belief system a name - Underdogma - and he reveals how Underdogma is affecting your life right now - and how it threatens America's superpower status - in a book that has been endorsed by Newt Gingrich, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, the Tea Party Patriots, Ambassador John Bolton, Frank Gaffney, Andrew C. McCarthy, Michael Barone, Rabbi Shmuley, and others. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Dixon. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/drms/000034/bk_drms_000034_sample.mp3.

    Immaculate Deception: Fiona Fitzgerald Mystery Series, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 448min
    When an outspoken senator is found dead, there isn't enough evidence to point to the senator's death as a suicide, as everyone thinks. There is something just too perfect about the life of Frances "Frankie" McGuire - mother, Irish Catholic congresswoman from Boston, and powerful pro-life senator. Sergeant Fiona Fitzgerald, daughter of a Senator, takes nothing at face value, especially when politics are involved. Everyone in Washington has a secret, and the senator's personal world turns out to be much more complicated than anyone ever knew. A pregnancy, an estranged husband, a mistress, and the fragility of life - both wanted and unwanted - collide, leaving Fiona to sort out the consequences of the messy case. Fiona faces the issues of abortion and women's rights just as she is contemplating her own pregnancy, with or without a steady man in her life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stevie Puckett.
