    The definitive portrait of the powerful, corruption-ridden Teamsters union and its legendary president Jimmy Hoffa - organizer, gangster, convict, and conspirator - with a new afterword by the author. James Riddle "Jimmy" Hoffa was one of the most fascinating and controversial figures in 20th-century America. His remarkable journey from young union organizer to all-powerful head of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters is an epic tale worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster, jam-packed with intrigue, subterfuge, violence, and corruption. His successes were monumental, his fall truly spectacular, and his bizarre disappearance in the summer of 1975 remains one of the great mysteries in American history. Widely considered to be the definitive volume on the career and crimes of Jimmy Hoffa, The Hoffa Wars, by acclaimed investigative journalist Dan E. Moldea, is an eye-opening, extensively researched account of the steady rise and fall of an ingenious, ambitious man who was instrumental in transforming a small union of 75,000 truckers into the most powerful labor brotherhood in world. Shocking disclosures in Moldea's no-holds-barred account include the devil's bargain that put Hoffa and his union in the pockets of the Mob, Hoffa's role in the joint CIA-Mafia plots to kill Cuban leader Fidel Castro, the deal Hoffa made with US president Richard Nixon that released the disgraced Teamster president from prison eight years early, and the truth behind Hoffa's eventual disappearance and likely murder. But perhaps the most startling revelation of all concerns the integral part Jimmy Hoffa played, in concert with underworld kingpins Carlos Marcello and Santos Trafficante, in America's most terrible 20th-century crime: the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric Jason Martin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/017600/bk_adbl_017600_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Jimmy Hoffa was writing this book just before he disappeared. Perhaps the clues to what happened to him are in this audio.A few months before his ominous disappearance, Jimmy Hoffa had signed a publishing agreement to write this book with Oscar Fraley, a writer he trusted. Hoffa had many lengthy discussions with Fraley about what went right, what went wrong, and why, with no holds barred. Hoffa named names. He told who did what to whom, and who got what and why. Perhaps the clues to what happened to Hoffa are in this audio.“I made two disastrous mistakes in my life,” says Jimmy Hoffa in the opening pages of this book. “The first was coming to grips with Robert F. Kennedy to the point where we became involved in a blood feud.... My second mistake was naming Frank Fitzsimmons as my successor.”Hoffa’s third mistake was the meeting he went to on July 30, 1975, after which he was never seen again. “Hell, I’m not saying I’m an angel, but when it came to dirty tricks I couldn’t hold a candle to the Irish Mafia,” Hoffa said. Hoffa got his start as a labor organizer when the goons all worked for the employers. He fought fire with fire. Hoffa tells us about his personal life, but he also explains how he saw the largest and most powerful labor union in the country; what he thought about organized crime and organized frame-ups; and of what they did to him in prison. The stories recounted in this book make the mind reel, the blood boil, and will shatter your expectations.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Frangione.

    GenuTrain® Titan-Knieorthese Größe 5 Merkmale: Neu Omega Pad. Integrierte viskoelastische Pelotte, die die Patella wie ein Ring umschließt, mit zwei Druckpunkten am distalen Teil und zwei seitlichen Flügeln am Meniskus. Hochelastisches und atmungsaktives Gewebe, das eine effektive Kompression und einen hervorragenden Tragekomfort gewährleistet. Neues, sehr weiches und feines Netz für den Kniebereich. Anatomisch geformtes Netzgewebe für optimalen Sitz und rutschfesten Halt. Weniger Kompression an den Enden der Kniestütze, um Durchblutungsstörungen zu vermeiden. Neue integrierte Spannschlaufen an den Rippen zur einfachen Befestigung der Stütze. Wirkungsmechanismus: Das Omega-Pad überträgt die Kompression von der Patella auf das umgebende Weichteilgewebe. Durch die Bewegung des Kniegelenks verformt sich die Ringpelotte und massiert die Weichteile um die Patella. Kompression und Massage beschleunigen das Abklingen von Schwellung und Hydrops und helfen, Schmerzen zu reduzieren. Die Druckpunkte des Omega-Pads üben Druck auf das Fettgewebe von Hoffa aus. Sie reduzieren Kompression und Schmerzen. Die seitlichen Flügel der Omega-Pelotte drücken auf den vorderen Teil des Meniskus und tragen durch intermittierende Kompression zur Schmerzlinderung bei. Durch die Stimulation der Propriozeption steigert das Kniepolster die Sensomotorik und damit die Kontrolle über die Muskulatur. Indikationen: Irritationen (Tendomyopathie, schmerzhafte Attachments, Meniskopathie, Osteoarthritis, posttraumatische und postoperative Arthritis). Gefühl der Instabilität Abmessung: Die genauen Messpunkte für den benutzerdefinierten GenuTrain finden Sie im detaillierten Messblock.

    One of America's greatest investigative reporters brings to life the gripping, no-holds-barred clash of two American titans: Robert Kennedy and his nemesis, Jimmy Hoffa. From 1957 to 1964, Robert Kennedy and Jimmy Hoffa channeled nearly all of their considerable powers into destroying each other. Kennedy's battle with Hoffa burst into the public consciousness with the 1957 Senate Rackets Committee hearings and intensified when his brother named him attorney general in 1961. RFK put together a "Get Hoffa" squad within the Justice Department, devoted to destroying one man. But Hoffa, with nearly unlimited Teamster funds, was not about to roll over. Drawing upon a treasure trove of previously secret and undisclosed documents, James Neff has crafted a brilliant, heart-pounding epic of crime and punishment, a saga of venom and relentlessness and two men willing to do anything to demolish each other. ungekürzt.

    Not long before his still-unsolved disappearance, notorious, celebrated, two-fisted Teamsters Union president Jimmy Hoffa put his story down on paper - setting the record straight once and for all on his embattled career representing America’s labor force. He spared no details, kept no secrets, and didn’t hesitate to name names - from the most powerful politicians to the most dangerous crime bosses - in the ultimate tell-all by a guy who had a hell of a lot to say and zero fear about spilling it.“I’m not saying I’m an angel,” he once declared, and when it came to fighting Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy in the courts or union-busting goons in the streets, he left no doubt that whoever took on Hoffa was dancing with devil. His explosive blow-by-blow reveals who did what and who got done, who had the goods and who knew too much, who pulled the strings and who pulled the triggers. Told in his own hard-boiled words, with no apologies and no shortage of attitude, HOFFA is the stunning last testament of a man who didn’t know how to back down. And though he wasn’t the last man standing,  he was absolutely the last of his kind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Frangione.

    Award-winning Great Plains writer Marilyn Coffey recounts her family’s intricate dance with the Teamsters, beginning with her dad’s tiny trucking company spawned on a front porch in 1929, in a David-and-Goliath encounter that spanned decades. In 1956, Tom Coffey knuckled under Jimmy Hoffa’s six-month-long Teamsters strike. He sold his 27-year-old truckline, Coffey’s Transfer Company, rather than sign Hoffa’s contract.  But the story didn’t end there - and Hoffa didn’t win after all. In 1958, the Coffey family gathered in Washington, DC, to see Tom testify against Jimmy Hoffa before then-Senator John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, the Rackets Committee’s counsel who had sworn to put Hoffa behind bars.  Get the exclusive insider’s perspective with Marilyn’s firsthand narrative of this feud in That Punk Jimmy Hoffa! ungekürzt.
