Jerusalem Falls Seven Centuries of War and Peace [Audiobook]
Jerusalem Falls: Seven Centuries of War and Peace (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BMJ22M8L | 2022 | 9 hours and 43 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 281 MB
Author: John D. Hosler
Narrator: David Colacci

The first full account of the medieval struggle for Jerusalem, from the seventh to the thirteenth century. The history of Jerusalem is one of conflict, faith, and empire. Few cities have been attacked as often and as savagely. This was no less true in the Middle Ages. From the Persian sack in 614 through the bloody First Crusade and beyond, Jerusalem changed hands countless times. But despite these horrific acts of violence, its story during this period is also one of interfaith tolerance and accord. In this gripping history, John D. Hosler explores the great clashes and delicate settlements of medieval Jerusalem. He examines the city's many sieges and considers the experiences of its inhabitants of all faiths. The city's conquerors consistently acknowledged and reinforced the rights of those religious minorities over which they ruled. Deeply researched, this account reveals the way in which Jerusalem's past has been constructed on partial histories-and urges us to reckon with the city's broader historical contours.

Inventing the It Girl: How Elinor Glyn Created the Modern Romance and Conquered Early Hollywood (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B09Y68MMKQ | 2022 | 16 hours and 13 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 432 MB
Author: Hilary A. Hallett
Narrator: Pamela Almand

The modern romance novel is elevated to a subject of serious study in this addictive biography of pioneering celebrity author Elinor Glyn. Unlike typical romances, which end with wedding bells, Elinor Glyn's story really began after her marriage up the social ladder and into the English gentry class in 1892. Born in the Channel Islands, Elinor Sutherland, like most Victorian women, aspired only to a good match. But when her husband, Clayton Glyn, gambled their fortune away, she turned to her pen and boldly challenged the era's sexually straightjacketed literary code with her notorious succes de scandale, Three Weeks. An intensely erotic tale about an unhappily married woman's sexual education of her young lover, the novel got Glyn banished from high society but went on to sell millions, revealing a deep yearning for a fuller account of sexual passion than permitted by the British aristocracy or the Anglo-American literary establishment.

Inside the Gas Chambers: Eight Months in the Sonderkommando of Auschwitz (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BN6W7W5S | 2022 | 7 hours and 6 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 195 MB
Author: Shlomo Venezia
Narrator: Peter Noble

This is a unique, eye-witness account of everyday life right at the heart of the Nazi extermination machine. Slomo Venezia was born into a poor Jewish-Italian community living in Thessaloniki, Greece. At first, the occupying Italians protected his family; but when the Germans invaded, the Venezias were deported to Auschwitz. His mother and sisters disappeared on arrival, and he learned, at first with disbelief, that they had almost certainly been gassed. Given the chance to earn a little extra bread, he agreed to become a 'Sonderkommando', without realizing what this entailed. He soon found himself a member of the 'special unit' responsible for removing the corpses from the gas chambers and burning their bodies.

Infections and Inequalities: The Modern Plagues (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BMDKRN69 | 2022 | 11 hours and 46 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 338 MB
Author: Paul Farmer
Narrator: Derek Shoales

Paul Farmer has battled AIDS in rural Haiti and deadly strains of drug-resistant tuberculosis in the slums of Peru. A physician-anthropologist with more than fifteen years in the field, Farmer writes from the front lines of the war against these modern plagues and shows why, even more than those of history, they target the poor. This "peculiarly modern inequality" that permeates AIDS, TB, malaria, and typhoid in the modern world, and that feeds emerging (or re-emerging) infectious diseases such as Ebola and cholera, is laid bare in Farmer's harrowing memoir rife with stories about diseases and human suffering.

There is an old, deeply rooted story about America that goes like this: Columbus "discovers" a strange continent and brings back tales of untold riches.

White imperialists are destined to rule the continent, and history is an irreversible march toward Indigenous destruction.

Author: Carl J. Bon Tempo, Hasia R. Diner

A sweeping narrative history of American immigration from the colonial period to the present. The history of the United States has been shaped by immigration. Historians Carl J. Bon Tempo and Hasia R. Diner provide a sweeping historical narrative told through the lives and words of the quite ordinary people who did nothing less than make the nation. Drawn from stories spanning the colonial period to the present, Bon Tempo and Diner detail the experiences of people from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. They explore the many themes of American immigration scholarship, including the contexts and motivations for migration, settlement patterns, work, family, racism, and nativism, against the background of immigration law and policy. Taking a global approach that considers economic and personal factors in both the sending and receiving societies, the authors pay close attention to how immigration has been shaped by the state response to its promises and challenges.
