Story81
The Scottish-born son of a failed weaver and a mother who supported the family by binding shoes, Andrew Carnegie was the embodiment of the American dream. In his rise from a job as a bobbin boy in a cotton factory to being the richest man in the world, he was single-minded, relentless and a major player in some of the most violent and notorious labor strikes of the time. The prototype of today's billionaire, he was a visionary in the way he earned his money and in the way he gave it away.

The cells were supposed to die. Instead, they changed everything. When Henrietta Lacks walked into Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1951 complaining of vaginal bleeding, neither she nor her doctors could have imagined the medical revolution about to unfold. The cervical cancer that would claim her life at age 31 harbored an extraordinary secret: her cells could live forever. Without her knowledge or consent, those cells would reshape modern medicine. Dubbed "HeLa" cells, Henrietta's tissue became the cornerstone of countless medical breakthroughs.

His name was David Crockett. He never signed his name any other way, but popular culture transformed his memory into "Davy Crockett", and Hollywood gave him a raccoon hat he hardly ever wore. Best-selling historian Michael Wallis casts a fresh look at the frontiersman, storyteller, and politician behind these legendary stories.

What happens when one man decides to rely on prayer alone to meet every need? Sincere attempts to define George Müller as a preacher, evangelist, or a man who cared for the poor, fail to illustrate why you should read about him. The man who cared for over 10,000 orphans and established 120 schools is best remembered for the principles by which he lived his life — principles that are now within your reach.

In Take It Where You Find It: The American Dream, Earned and Stolen, Heinz H. Bartesch takes listeners on a deeply personal journey through the turbulence of 20th-century history. Born in a refugee camp in Austria, Heinz’s story begins with his family’s escape from the ravages of war-torn Transylvania, where they were caught in the chaos of World War II. The Bartesch family, rooted in the resilient community of the Siebenbürger Saxons, faced unimaginable hardships as they navigated displacement, survival, and the weight of historical trauma.

Let me begin by saying I am passionate about history. I love the lifestyles of the bygone eras. I love how tough and yet how simple life was. Sleeping under the stars was a regular life for some. Traveling the lands was the life for others. The book you are about to listen to is in the public domain. And for that, I am thankful. That way, I can keep it as much to the original as possible.

Written just 40 years after David Livingstone’s death, this admiring account of the famous missionary’s life and work takes us deep into the “dark continent” of 19th-century Africa, where he labored to bring “Christianity, commerce, and civilization.” A national hero in Victorian Britain, Livingstone earned fame as an explorer and scientific investigator, an antislavery crusader, and imperial reformer, as well as in the role of a Protestant missionary and martyr who eventually died in Africa of malaria.

Perhaps no other figure in American history is more shrouded in myth and legend than David ("Davy") Crockett, the Tennessee frontiersman whose death at the Alamo in 1836 ensured his place in the Valhalla of American heroes. Crockett himself was responsible for much of the folklore about his life. A gregarious, fun-loving man, he was more than capable of spinning tall tales over a "horn" of liquor.

It was a program conceived in secret by a group of men. Some were doctors; others were military officers and government officials—all with top-secret security clearances. They called it the Similar Likeness Project, and it would serve as the foundation for an enigma that would soon become one of the greatest mysteries in history. The project’s carefully curated children would be secret weapons—trained, assessed, and groomed to perfection. If they were needed for a mission, they would be brought into the fold. If not, they would live a normal life without even knowing the difference.

Buick is one of the best known automobile brands today as it was more than a century ago. But unlike other automobile pioneers, Ford, Dodge, and Olds, who became rich and famous with their car companies, Buick prospered not at all from his namesake. Although Buick was a visionary and an outstanding engineer, he simply did not have all the tools to succeed, lacking management sense among other things.

Americans had few things to celebrate during the Barbary Wars or the War of 1812, but one of them was the growing prestige of the US Navy, and among those who were instrumental in its development, few were as influential as Stephen Decatur, Jr. Decatur had an impact on nearly every war America fought in between the 1780s until his death in 1820, and his stardom ensured that he was a fixture among Washington, DC's elite in his own lifetime.

Er beschreibt das Leben in Radzyn, einer typisch jüdischen Stetl-Gemeinschaft im damaligen polnischen Generalgouvernement, dem Vorhof von Treblinka, Majdanek und Auschwitz, und dann den Untergang dieser Welt, wie er ihn, gerade 17 geworden, erlebt hat: mit zunehmenden Schikanen, ständiger Bedrohung, Grausamkeiten und nackter Gewalt; mit der Verschleppung und Ermordung der Geschwister, Eltern, Freunde; mit der Ausrottung einer ganzen Volksgemeinschaft.
