Only a few of the events in this book have ever made it into print, except maybe in musky-old county histories. Even then, many of them are lucky to rate a paragraph. Listen to them now, if you dare! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sonny Dufault.

    Murder by Candlelight: The Gruesome Slayings Behind Our Romance With the Macabre , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 459min
    In the early 19th century, a series of murders took place in and around London that shocked the whole of England. The appalling nature of the crimes - a brutal slaying in the gambling netherworld, the slaughter of two entire households, and the first of the modern lust-murders - was magnified not only by the lurid atmosphere of an age in which candlelight gave way to gaslight but also by the efforts of some of the keenest minds of the period to uncover the most gruesome details of the killings. These slayings all took place against the backdrop of a London in which the splendor of the fashionable world was haunted by the squalor of the slums. Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron, Thomas De Quincey, Thomas Carlyle, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and others were fascinated by the blood and deviltry of these crimes. In their contemplations of the most notorious murders of their time, they discerned in the act of killing itself a depth of hideousness that we have lost sight of, now living in an age in which murder has been reduced to a problem of social science and skillful detective work. Interweaving these cultural vignettes alongside criminal history, acclaimed author Michael Knox Beran paints a vivid picture of a time when homicide was thought of as the intrusion of the diabolic into ordinary life. ungekürzt.

    Gruesome Missouri: Murder, Madness, and the Macabre in the Show Me State , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 191min
    Have you ever wondered where the skeletons are buried in your hometown? Gruesome Missouri is a collection of murder mysteries from St. Louis, St, Joseph, Catawissa, Kirbyville, Bull Creek, and more.Excerpt from the book:"I had to do it, and I'd do it again," said the jilted lover.Thomas Lane promised to marry Myrtle Eberly, then kept making excuses not to do it.Myrtle was a pretty young girl, just 17-years-old, with wavy black hair, cut just above the ear. She weighed 130 pounds and had what reporters called "a well set-up figure".What detectives at Four Courts couldn't understand was that she didn't think she'd done anything wrong. Myrtle kept referring to some unwritten law that said if he promised to marry her and didn't, it was only right that she should kill him.She knew it was against the law to kill him, "but it was right, and I had to do it." She'd known Ed Leonard for three months. Two weeks ago, Ed asked Myrtle to marry him.He said they'd get married right away. He'd meet Myrtle Friday to make plans. Come Friday, the best suggestion he had to make was he would get a blank marriage certificate from him and fill it out, and I could show it to my folks, and they would think we had been married.She said no, and he said they would get married the next night. Myrtle didn't believe him. She warned him that if he didn't marry her, she would kill him.Saturday night, as they walked down Jefferson Avenue and Walnut Street, she concealed a pistol under her shawl. Ed mocked her. He laughed at her and said he had no intention of getting married.Before Myrtle knew it, the gun was in her hand. She shot him twice."I knew in my heart that it was right for me to kill him for the wrong he had done me.""Was I in love with him?" said Myrtle. "Well, now, that is hard to answer. Sometimes, I think I was, and sometimes, I think not. I was not Saturday night when I shot ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sonny Dufault.

    The Last Lynching: How a Gruesome Mass Murder Rocked a Small Georgia Town , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 443min
    Nothing casts a more sinister shadow over our nation's history than the gruesome lynchings that happened between 1882 and 1937, claiming 4,680 victims. Often, in a show of racist violence, the lynchers tortured their victims before murdering them. Most killers were never brought to justice; some were instead celebrated as heroes, their victims' bodies displayed or even cut up and distributed as trophies. Then, in 1946, the dead bodies of two men and two women were found near Moore's Ford Bridge in rural Monroe, Georgia. Their killers were never identified. And although the crime reverberated through the troubled community, the corrupt courts, and eventually the whole world, many details remained unexplored - until now. In The Last Lynching, Anthony S. Pitch reveals the true story behind the last mass lynching in America in unprecedented detail. Drawing on some 10,000 previously classified documents from the FBI and National Archives, Lynched paints an unflinching picture of the lives of the victims, suspects, and eyewitnesses and describes the political, judicial, and socioeconomic conditions that stood in the way of justice. Along the way, The Last Lynching sheds light into a dark corner of American history that no one can afford to ignore. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for listeners interested in history - books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times best seller or a national best seller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home. ungekürzt.
