Just like human children, the yearlings play, explore their surroundings, and then snuggle up with mom for milk. They even stay with a special "babysitter" while mom is away.

    Born and raised at Four Corners, their parents' thoroughbred horse farm in Kentucky, Charlotte and Knox grew up steeped in the rhythms of foaling season - the cyclical revolution of life and growth and change that transformed generations of foals into yearlings every January. Knox and Charlotte are as tightly connected - and as mysterious to each other - as two sisters ever were. When Charlotte leaves Four Corners Farm, and marries Bruce, a New Yorker, moving to Manhattan's West Village, their lives remain powerfully entwined. But nothing will solder their lives more deeply or fatefully than Charlotte's pregnancy, and the fateful day on which she delivers two glorious twin boys, and then dies in childbirth. For Knox and Bruce, near strangers both devastated by the loss of Charlotte, the woman who connects them to each other more deeply in death than she ever did in life, the vast, inscrutable calculus of their grief is initially subsumed by the relentless waves of obligation and exhaustion which take hold almost at the instant of Charlotte's death: Together they take up the work of caring for her two motherless boys. In their mourning, and in the joy and desolation that flood in as their love for the children deepens, Bruce and Knox confront the deepest paradoxes of grief and regeneration, questions of loyalty and unalloyed longing, and the entanglement of families and generations. A gripping, powerfully affecting debut novel from a stunning new writer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Becca Battoe.

    One evening late in his life, veteran sportswriter Mike Sullivan was asked by his son what he remembered best from his three decades in the press box. The answer came as a surprise. "I was at Secretariat's Derby, in '73. That was . . . just beauty, you know?"Sullivan didn't know, not really: the track had always been a place his father disappeared to once a year on business, a source of souvenir glasses and inscrutable passions in his Kentucky relatives. But in 2000, Sullivan, an editor and essayist for Harper's, decided to educate himself. He spent two years following the horse-both across the country, as he watched one season's juvenile crop prepare for the Triple Crown, and through time, as he tracked the animal's constant evolution in literature and art, from the ponies that appeared on the walls of European caves 30,000 years ago, to the mounts that carried the Indo-European language to the edges of the Old World, to the finely tuned but fragile yearlings that are auctioned off for millions of dollars apiece every spring and fall. The result is a witty, encyclopedic, and in the end profound meditation on what Edwin Muir called our "long-lost archaic companionship" with the horse. Incorporating elements of memoir and reportage, the Wunderkammer and the picture gallery, Blood Horses lets us see--as we have never seen before--the animal that, more than any other, made us who we are.

    Black Knights of the Hudson is a series of audiobooks relating the saga of the fictional MacKendrick Army family from the Civil War through World War II. Long Gray Line is the fourth audiobook in the story of the MacKendrick Army family; who live by West Point's motto of Duty, Honor, Country. The war with Spain is over and the United States has moved beyond its continental boundaries. With new inventions on the horizon, the United States at last takes its place in the world order and the MacKendricks are quick to answer the challenge. The cousins Fitzjames and Jackson Lee MacKendrick arrive at West Point to assume their own places in West Point's fabled Corps of Cadets. Jackson Lee, classmate of the impressive Douglas MacArthur, demonstrates a quiet competence and is marked closely for later advancement by the senior officers. Fitzjames, son of a legendary officer of the United States, barely survives the tender mercies of the Yearlings in Beast Barracks when he is hazed brutally for his effrontery in bearing such a famous name. In Long Gray Line, the MacKendricks march forward to greet the new century and its bewildering array of inventions. From the football field of the annual Army-Navy Game, where the canny Charlie Daly leads the Cadets against the Midshipmen, into the growing clouds of a world war, Jack and Fitz assume their fathers' mantles as the next generation of West Point's famed Corps of black knights. Attractive, engaging, from a background of wealth and privilege, the MacKendrick cousins prove to be fair game to the Army brats, college girls, New York society women, and English Ladyships who seek to join the equally important line of Army wives who have taken Milton's words as their own motto: 'they also serve who only stand and wait.' ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Roy Grimsley. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/013287/bk_acx0_013287_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
