The Woman's Hour , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 988min

Nashville, August 1920. Thirty-five states have ratified the 19th Amendment, 12 have rejected or refused to vote and one last state is needed. It all comes down to Tennessee, the moment of truth for the suffragists, after a seven-decade crusade. The opposing forces include politicians with careers at stake, liquor companies, railroad magnates and a lot of racists who don't want black women voting. And then there are the 'Antis' - women who oppose their own enfranchisement, fearing suffrage will bring about the moral collapse of the nation. They all converge in a boiling hot summer for a vicious face-off replete with dirty tricks, betrayals and bribes, bigotry, Jack Daniel's and the Bible. Following a handful of remarkable women who led their respective forces into battle, along with appearances by Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Frederick Douglass and Eleanor Roosevelt, The Woman's Hour is an inspiring story of activists winning their own freedom in one of the last campaigns forged in the shadow of the American Civil War, and the beginning of the great 20th-century battles for civil rights. ungekürzt.

Der Anti (Silberband) / Perry Rhodan - Silberband Bd.12 (eBook, ePUB)

Seit gut zehntausend Jahren treibt ein Raumschiff durch die Milchstraße - an Bord sind hunderttausend schlafende Arkoniden. Als der Mausbiber Gucky, Perry Rhodans bester Mutant, an Bord kommt, erwachen die Schläfer. Sie finden sich in einer fremden Zeit wieder - und im Raumschiff der Ahnen bricht das Chaos aus. Perry Rhodan versucht alles, um die 100.000 Arkoniden aus der Vergangenheit dazu zu bewegen, in der Gegenwart beim Wiederaufbau des Großen Imperiums von Arkon zu helfen. Atlan, derzeit Imperator auf Arkons Kristallthron, ist von Feinden umgeben und braucht dringend Verbündete. Einem Anti gelingt es, Atlans Zellaktivator in seinen Besitz zu bringen, das Gerät, das dem Imperator die relative Unsterblichkeit verleiht. Atlan hat noch sechzig Stunden Zeit, dann muss er unweigerlich sterben. Eine dramatische Jagd nach dem Zellaktivator beginnt - und Perry Rhodan kann seine Mutanten nicht einsetzen: Die Antis blockieren die geheimnisvollen Psi-Fähigkeiten dieser Spezialisten ...

The Woman's Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 988min

Both a page-turning drama and an inspiration for every reader. (Hillary Rodham Clinton)Soon to Be a major television eventThe nail-biting climax of one of the greatest political battles in American history: the ratification of the constitutional amendment that granted women the right to vote. "With a skill reminiscent of Robert Caro, [Weiss] turns the potentially dry stuff of legislative give-and-take into a drama of courage and cowardice." (The Wall Street Journal)"Weiss is a clear and genial guide with an ear for telling language... She also shows a superb sense of detail, and it's the deliciousness of her details that suggests certain individuals warrant entire novels of their own... Weiss's thoroughness is one of the book's great strengths. So vividly had she depicted events that by the climactic vote (spoiler alert: The amendment was ratified!), I got goose bumps." (Curtis Sittenfeld, The New York Times Book Review)Nashville, August 1920.
