    Japanese Destroyer Captain: Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Midway - The Great Naval Battles Seen Through Japanese Eyes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 920min
    This highly regarded war memoir was a best seller in both Japan and the United States during the 1960s and has long been treasured by historians for its insights into the Japanese side of the surface war in the Pacific. The author was a survivor of more than one hundred sorties against the Allies and was known throughout Japan as the Unsinkable Captain. A hero to his countrymen, Capt. Hara exemplified the best in Japanese surface commanders: highly skilled, hard driving, and aggressive. Moreover, he maintained a code of honor worthy of his samurai grandfather, and, as readers of this book have come to appreciate, he was as free with praise for American courage and resourcefulness as he was critical of himself and his senior commanders. ungekürzt.

    Je suis sorti... (eBook, ePUB)
    Au cours d'une longue vie professionnelle consacrée à la Recherche et au Développement en pays en voie de développement (en Afrique, Amérique Latine et Asie), l'auteur a été confronté à de nombreuses cultures et spiritualités qui ont questionné sa foi chrétienne. Divers écrits lui ont permis de faire la synthèse de ses connaissances, scientifiques mais aussi spirituelles, en relation avec son expérience professionnelle et humaine. De retour en France, à Montpellier, l'auteur s'est engagé, un peu par hasard, comme bénévole au Secours Catholique pour participer à l'accueil des gens de la rue en précarité, puis de migrants arrivant dans cette ville. Ces rencontres directes de personne à personne, hors de tout cadre institutionnel et professionnel, ont apporté une lumière nouvelle et inattendue sur son expérience passée et sa vie de croyant. Un nouveau parcours de vie s'est ouvert, apportant joies inattendues, discernement et lumières spirituelles. Ce livre parle des étapes et des conséquences de ces sorties vers « les périphéries ». L'auteur a assimilé cette démarche à un parcours en haute montagne passant par trois refuges qu'il a dénommés : « Sorties et rencontres, « Parole partagée », « Prière ». Ce parcours, est celui d'un homme marié, aujourd'hui arrière-grand-père. Il est personnel, sans prétention didactique. L'auteur l'a décrit pour sa famille, ses amis et d'autres chercheurs de Dieu, pour leur donner éventuellement le désir de trouver leur propre chemin spirituel, en relation avec leurs compagnons de route, incluant celle avec Jésus, en paroles et en actes selon les évangiles et l'Ancien Testament. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Christian Pieri est Ingénieur Agronome (INA, Paris) et Docteur en Science du Sol (CNRS, Nancy). Il a exercé essentiellement à l'étranger, en tant que chercheur (19651991) dans le cadre du CIRAD (Centre International de Recherche Agronomique pour le Développement), comme agroécologiste à la Banque Mondiale (19922002), puis comme consultant international (20022006).

    Once They Were Eagles: The Men of the Black Sheep Squadron , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 441min
    Marine Corps Fighter Squadron 214 was hastily organized in the field during World War II to meet the urgent need for another combat squadron in the South Pacific. The squadron, self-named the "Black Sheep", went on under the leadership of the swashbuckling "Pappy" Boyington to become the most famous in Marine Corps history. Now comes the true story of the Black Sheep Squadron and the men who wrote its record in the Pacific skies. Once They Were Eagles tells how and why the squadron was formed, provides brief sketches of every member, and creates a vivid picture of the exciting but deadly aerial sorties over the South Pacific. Frank E. Walton located the 34 survivors of the 51 original Black Sheep. In a unique series of interviews, former "Eagles" share their recollections of those days of high adventure and their experiences in the years to follow. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Empire of Ivory: Temeraire, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
    Tragedy has struck His Majesty’s Aerial Corps, whose magnificent fleet of fighting dragons and their human captains valiantly defend England’s shores against the encroaching armies of Napoleon Bonaparte. An epidemic of unknown origin and no known cure is decimating the noble dragons’ ranks - forcing the hopelessly stricken into quarantine. Now only Temeraire and a pack of newly recruited dragons remain uninfected - and stand as the only means of an airborne defense against France’s ever bolder sorties. Bonaparte’s dragons are already harrowing Britain’s ships at sea. Only one recourse remains: Temeraire and his captain, Will Laurence, must take wing to Africa, whose shores may hold the cure to the mysterious and deadly contagion. On this mission there is no time to waste, and no telling what lies in store beyond the horizon or for those left behind to wait, hope, and hold the line.  ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Fly Toward Death , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 434min
    Machine gun fire and rifle bullets zing all around her as she maneuvers her plane to drop her bombs. Her fragile World War I biplane is low enough for her to hear the Germans screaming and yelling, as she presses forward to her drop zone.This was a typical flight during one night’s sorties. The German soldiers feared and hated the women they called the Nachthexen: Night Witches. There were three all-female aviation regiments in the Soviet Union during World War II. This is the story of female heroes who flew under incredibly adverse conditions: From women who flew the little, unarmed biplanes and bombed the Germans at night, to the fierce fighter pilots who fought the seasoned German Luftwaffe, humbling them before their peers.This is a fictional account, based on true stories, of the amazing women who lived, loved, and died bravely during the dark days of World War II. ungekürzt.

    American Fighter-Bombers in World War II: Usaaf Jabos in the Mto and Eto
    Lost in the air combat and air ace fanfare of World War II was the dangerous, unheralded and vital role played by USAAF fighter-bomber pilots over the Mediterranean and northwest Europe. Four times as many pilots were lost during strafing and ground attack sorties than were lost against the Luftwaffe in aerial combat. This extensive book is the first in-depth examination of American air-to-ground attack and explores numerous aspects of the subject. The three priorities of the fighter-bomber air superiority, interdiction and close air support along with combat reports and pilot narratives are put into the context of the various ground operations. The fighter-bomber pilot risked his life every day against the thickest flak in the war to deprive the enemy of vital reinforcements and supplies, altering his strategy and movement.

    Interlude with a Hitman: Tropical Hits, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 129min
    Old men. Perhaps outdated men. But, definitely not, men ready for the junkyard. Not by a long shot. Old but far from broken. Men with fire and zest for life. Dangerous, tough, unyielding wise guys. Mob hitmen, some who still have a soul. Fine food and great memories. Dinner with the mob. A real suppertime serenade. Put a bunch of older wise guys in a room with pasta, booze, and cigars, then watch the stories flow. Golden memories of murder and mayhem. Some memories that the Feds got. But most that Omerta never revealed. Sit back, relax. And pay attention to this casual conversation with some of the roughest men still packing heat. Sorties in adventure and anarchy. Just don’t talk about what you’re about to hear. Cause, if you do, well, then Mo Mo and Bear might take you on a little drive.Here’s a good tip, for free. Don’t get in the car. Cause, once you do, you aren’t ever getting back out again. Alive that is. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Jackson.
