    Air Apaches: The True Story of the 345th Bomb Group and Its Low, Fast, and Deadly Missions in World War II , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 905min
    The American 345th Bomb Group - the Air Apaches - was legendary in the war against Japan. The first fully trained and fully equipped group sent to the South Pacific, the 345th racked up a devastating score against the enemy. Armed to the teeth with machine guns and fragmentation bombs, and flying their B-25s at impossibly low altitudes - often below 50 feet - the pilots and air crews strafed and bombed enemy installations and shipping with a fury that helped cripple Japan. One of the sharpest tools in the US arsenal, the 345th performed essential missions during Gen. Douglas MacArthur's campaigns in New Guinea and the Philippines, earning an impressive four Distinguished Unit Citations. This was punishingly dangerous work, and the 345th lost 177 aircraft and 712 men - young men doing their duty in the spirit of the Greatest Generation. Neither was this the more gentlemanly war of Europe, with its more temperate climate, resistance networks aiding downed crews, and POW camps. Airmen shot down in the Pacific theater faced drowning in the ocean, disappearing in the jungle, or torturing and beheading by the Japanese in a war of no quarter expected, no quarter given. A compelling follow-up to Stout's Hell's Angels, Air Apaches reconstructs the missions of the 345th Bomb Group in striking detail, with laser focus on the men who manned the cockpits, navigated the B-25s, dropped the bombs, serviced the planes, and helped win the war. To tell this remarkable story, Stout worked closely with the group's surviving veterans and dug deep into firsthand accounts. The result is a compelling narrative of men at war that will keep listeners on the edge of their seats. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robertson Dean.

    Outsmarting the Sociopath Next Door
    From Dr. Martha Stout's influential work The Sociopath Next Door, we learned how to identify a sociopath. Now she tells us what we actually can do about it. "Mandatory reading on how to effectively deal with sociopaths before you get hurt."-Joe Navarro, former FBI special agent and the author of Dangerous Personalities While the best way to deal with a sociopath is to avoid him or her entirely, sometimes circumstance doesn't allow for that. What happens when the time comes to defend yourself against your own child, a ruthless ex-spouse, a boss or another person in power? Using the many chilling and often heartbreaking emails and letters she has received over the years, Dr. Martha Stout uncovers the psychology behind the sociopath's methods and provides concrete guidelines to help navigate these dangerous interactions. Organized around categories such as destructive narcissism, violent sociopaths, sociopathic coworkers, sociopathy in business and government, and the sociopath in your family, Outsmarting the Sociopath Next Door contains detailed explanation and commentary on how best to react to keep the sociopath at bay. Uniting these categories is a discussion of changing psychological theories of personality and sociopathy and the enduring triumph of conscience over those who operate without empathy or concern for others. By understanding the person you're dealing with and changing the rules of the game, you'll be able to gain the upper hand and escape the sociopath's influence. Whether you're fighting a custody battle against a sociopathic ex or being gaslighted by a boss or coworker, you'll find hope and help within these pages. With this guide to disarming the conscienceless, Dr. Stout provides an incisive new examination of human behavior and conceptions of normality, and gives readers the tools needed to protect themselves.

Great news! No Work Urban Front Yard Vegetable Gardening Simplified by Joyce Zborower is an easy-to-follow guide for building and planting a new organic gardening bed in the ground right over an old chemical bed, a grassy spot that's never been planted before, a rocky area, container gardening in pots, or in a raised garden bed so you won't have to bend over to harvest your goodies. And once the bed is ready and planted, any further work on your part is very minimal. It also provides vegetable gardening basics and small garden ideas for an urban garden in the backyard or as front yard gardens. Is it really "no work?"... No, but it's as close as you'll ever get without hiring someone to take care of it for you. Excerpt from No Work Urban Front Yard Vegetable Gardening Simplified: "Many years ago when I was just beginning to learn about organic gardening, I read Ruth Stout's classic No-Work Garden Book in which she recommended nine-or-so inches of hay as a year-round mulch. I busted my you-know-what dragging home 80- to 90-pound bales of hay two at a time in the trunk of my car, somehow maneuvering them into my backyard and spreading the hay in my garden, only to find several months later that I had weeds in my yard that I had never seen before in my whole entire life! It took years to get rid of those weeds." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joyce Zborower. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/051402/bk_acx0_051402_sample.mp3.
