The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 969min
For anyone interested in foreign affairs, this book will catalyze debate, and not only for Mr. Huntington's concluding scenario for World War III. He sees how this could happen if the U.S. mishandles an increasingly xenophobic and truculent China. Chinese assertiveness, Huntington argues, rises out of its felt grievances against a relatively weakening West. After China, the gravest challenge to the West is resurgent Islamic identity. So what to do? The West should ensure the survival of its values within a stronger European-North American alliance that can offset the emerging Sino-Islamic grouping. Samuel P. Huntington is a political scientist at Harvard and was a foreign policy aide to President Clinton. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Boehmer.

Up the Line , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 539min
Being a Time Courier was one of the best jobs Judson Daniel Elliott III ever had. It was tricky, though, taking group after group of tourists back to the same historic event without meeting yoruself coming or going. Trickier still was avoiding the temptation to become intimately involved with the past and interfere with events to come. The deterrents for any such actions were frighteningly effective. So Judson Daniel Elliott played by the book. Then he met a lusty Greek in Byzantium who showed him how rules were made to be broken... and set him on a family-history-go-round that would change his past and his future forever! ungekürzt.

Thirty Years of Treason: Excerpts from Hearings before the House Committee on Un-American Activities 1938 - 1968: Complete Set , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 2463min
A chilling reenactment of the federal government's anti-Communist investigations. The testimony that the author has gleaned for this audiobook from the 30-year record of the House Un-American Activities Committee focuses on HUAC's treatment of artists, intellectuals, and performers. This highly listenable and absorbing collection of significant excerpts from the hearings shows with painful clarity how HUAC grew from a panel that investigated possible subversive activities in a "dignified" manner to a huge, unrelenting accusatory finger from which almost no one was safe. Thirty Years of Treason serves as a warning for the future and creates living history from the documentary record. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nathan Dana Aldrich, Theodore Bikel, Claire Bloom, J. Paul Boehmer, Scott Brick, full cast. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/blak/007303/bk_blak_007303_sample.mp3.

Mr. Lucky: A Novel of High Stakes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 643min
When the Las Vegas's Riverboat Casino starts to burn down, bald, overweight Ricky Smith nosedives five floors into the pool. After this death-defying jump, Smith, a one-time loser, is miraculously transformed into a major-player winner. Battered and drenched, walking across the street to another casino, he begins a million-dollar winning streak at the tables. But ex-cop Tony Valentine soon arrives, begged by the Strip's casino owners to prove that Smith's ("Mr. Lucky's") impossibly successful winning streak isn't on the square. With his finely honed grift sense and a knack for spotting cheats, Tony Valentine finds he has few alternatives, and all of them are treacherous. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Boehmer.
