    52 Weeks of Cookies: How One Mom Refused to Be Beaten by Her Son's Deployment , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 906min
    Single mother Maggie McCreath couldn't decide which was worse: the fact that her only son (not yet 21) was off to war in Iraq for the second time, or the fact that they had only five days to prepare. Even more frightening, she knew that he would be part of the surge and, as a paratrooper in the 82nd Division of the Army, the tip of the spear. What she did not know, what she couldn't even bear to consider, was how this deployment would end, both for her son and for his brothers in arms, whom she had come to know and love as her own. So she turned to the one pastime that had always brought her solace: baking. Filled with delicious, original cookie recipes, 52 Weeks of Cookies recounts a mom's unique method of coping during her son's deployment. With plenty of sugar cookies but no sugarcoating, 52 Weeks of Cookies is an honest, uplifting story of family love during a crisis, with all the fear, grief, laughter, gratitude, and joy that comes with it. ungekürzt.

    God Became Man: Neville Goddard Lectures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 15min
    You are told that God became man that man may become God. You may think you are the man that God, as another, became, but I tell you: you are the God who became man, that man may become you! Because my visions which parallel scripture are accurate, I can boldly say that what I have just told you is true. In the 82nd Psalm we are the speaker, speaking to ourselves, saying: "I say, 'You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you; nevertheless, you will die like men and fall as one man, O princes.'" We are the sons of the Most High, and we and our creator are one. Although we are now in a world of men, we have been promised that posterity will serve us and tell of the Lord who wrought it. You and I actually became human, that humanity may become spirit - as we are! You are not a little worm that God became. You were God before you devised the grand experiment, knowing it was the only way that man could become as you are! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrew Morantz.

    The Apocalypse Crusade 3: War of the Undead, Day 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 768min
    With the great battle between man and the undead apparently won and the situation seemingly in hand, the president leaps into action to take all the credit he can for saving the country and defending the Quarantine Zone. Surrounded by battalions of television news crews, he authorizes Operation Swift Stand in which he commits the nation's entire rapid deployment force in a show-stopping extravaganza designed more to rekindle patriotic fervor and to lift his own sagging poll numbers than to stop the undead. Unfortunately, there have been leaks in the hard fought line and by the time the 82nd Airborne Division is dropped into central Connecticut, there are flesh hungry zombies wreaking havoc in Hartford, 10 miles behind their lines. Suddenly, there is no line. Day three devolves into chaos as no one knows who is infected and who isn't. Battles break out everywhere: soldier against soldier, and brother against brother, with fearsome zombies waiting to feast on the winners. In the middle of all the mayhem, Deckard and Thuy are fighting not just to stay alive, but to find each other in a land that now belongs solely to the dead. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Den Feigen tritt jeder Lump! (eBook, ePUB)
    April 1848: Über Nacht verlässt Dr. Friedrich Hecker seine Familie und eine gut gehende Anwaltspraxis in Mannheim, um für Demokratie und Republik zu kämpfen. Mit einigen hundert Gleichgesinnten streitet er in Süddeutschland für die Freiheit. Die Revolution scheitert an der übermächtigen gegnerischen Militärmaschinerie. Hecker emigriert in die Schweiz und einige Monate später in die USA. Bei seiner Ankunft in New York City jubeln 20.000 Menschen ihrem Helden zu. Acht Monate später erheben sich die Demokraten in Baden erneut. Hecker nimmt die erste Schiffspassage zurück in die Heimat. Doch er kommt zu spät. Erneut hat die Reaktion gesiegt und wütet, blutiger noch als zuvor. Er fristet mit seiner Familie das harte Dasein eines Bauern in Illinois und erreicht, was kaum einem Akademiker gelingt: Die Präriefarm floriert. Seine Überzeugungen hat er nicht abgelegt: Im amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg zieht Hecker als Oberst des 24th Illinois Infantry Regiment, später des 82nd Illinois Infantry Regiment, in den Krieg, und kämpft mit seinen deutschen Soldaten erneut für die Freiheit. Einmal noch, im Jahr 1873, besucht er Deutschland. In Mannheim ist die Rheinbrücke vor Menschen nicht zu sehen. Seine Landsleute erzählen ihm stolz von der Einheit. Hecker, der noch nie ein Blatt vor den Mund nahm, erklärt ihnen, dass Einheit ohne Demokratie gar nichts bedeutet! "Frank Winters spannender Roman über Heckers Wirken in Baden und Illinois/USA ist eine angemessene Hommage für diesen Helden der Freiheit und Demokratie in alter und neuer Welt." (William Keel, Professor an der University of Kansas, Department of German Studies)

    Arnhem , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1006min
    Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Arnhem by Antony Beevor, read by Sean Barrett.On 17 September 1944, General Kurt Student, the founder of Nazi Germany's parachute forces, heard the growing roar of aeroplane engines. He went out onto his balcony above the flat landscape of southern Holland to watch the air armada of Dakotas and gliders carrying the British 1st Airborne and the American 101st and 82nd Airborne divisions. He gazed up in envy at this massive demonstration of paratroop power.Operation Market Garden, the plan to end the war by capturing the bridges leading to the Lower Rhine and beyond, was a bold concept: the Americans thought it unusually bold for Field Marshal Montgomery. But could it ever have worked? The cost of failure was horrendous, above all for the Dutch, who risked everything to help. German reprisals were pitiless and cruel and lasted until the end of the war.The British fascination with heroic failure has clouded the story of Arnhem in myths. Antony Beevor, using often overlooked sources from Dutch, British, American, Polish and German archives, has reconstructed the terrible reality of the fighting, which General Student himself called 'The Last German Victory'. Yet this book, written in Beevor's inimitable and gripping narrative style, is about much more than a single dramatic battle. It looks into the very heart of war. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Rally Point: Five Tasks to Unite the Country and Revitalize the American Dream , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
    A smart and surprising political inventory for how America can reunite and revitalize in a time of crisis. Written by an admired leader of the Republican party, Rally Point: Five Tasks to Unite the Country and Revitalize the American Dream looks past the 2016 election, past the finger pointing and conventional political thinking, to focus on clear primary principles that conservatives must debate and defend to protect the future of America. Raised in a working-class family in upstate New York, the first in his family to go to college, paid for in part by his service in the National Guard, Chris Gibson rose from private to colonel in the army, including combat command in the storied 82nd Airborne Division. Rally Point is his story: what he's learned from the school of hard knocks and how he's applied those precious life lessons during his service in Iraq and in Congress. Drawn from a deep appreciation of history and American exceptionalism, Gibson provides incisive and frank analysis of the current political environment, including President Trump, and provides a road map based on time-tested founding principles to help unite our country and revitalize the American dream. Rally Point is a thoughtful, compelling, enjoyable listen - a must for serious-minded Americans looking for answers in this challenging political environment. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Steel Wave: A Novel of World War II , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1249min
    Jeff Shaara, America's premier author of military historical fiction, brings us the centerpiece of his epic trilogy of the Second World War. General Dwight Eisenhower once again commands a diverse army that must find its single purpose in the destruction of Hitler's European fortress. His primary subordinates, Omar Bradley and Bernard Montgomery, must prove that this unique blend of Allied armies can successfully confront the might of Adolf Hitler's forces, who have already conquered Western Europe. On the coast of France, German commander Erwin Rommel fortifies and prepares for the coming invasion, acutely aware that he must bring all his skills to bear on a fight his side must win. But Rommel's greatest challenge is to strike the Allies on his front, while struggling behind the lines with the growing insanity of Adolf Hitler, who thwarts the strategies Rommel knows will succeed. Meanwhile, Sergeant Jesse Adams, a no-nonsense veteran of the 82nd Airborne, parachutes with his men behind German lines into a chaotic and desperate struggle. And as the invasion force surges toward the beaches of Normandy, Private Tom Thorne of the 29th Infantry Division faces the horrifying prospects of fighting his way ashore on a stretch of coast more heavily defended than the Allied commanders anticipate - Omaha Beach. From G.I. to general, this story carries the reader through the war's most crucial juncture, the invasion that altered the flow of the war, and, ultimately, changed history. ungekürzt.
