A Child of Fortune , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 633min
With his simulated day-by-day reportage, prize-winning journalist-historian Jeffrey St. John makes you an eyewitness to the 1787-1788 political battle to ratify the U.S. Constitution. And what a battle it was! Listeners will discover how the Federalists sought to stamp the states into early ratification with violence and rigged elections; how close some Anti-Federalists came to opposing the new Constitution with armed force; how the Bill of Rights was born; and the price Federalists had to pay to save the new Constitution from certain defeat. Described here is Massachusetts Governor John Hancock's secret deal to deliver his state in return for support of his candidacy for the presidency; the Constitution's sanction of slavery and the delegate revolts it produced; Patrick Henry's challenge to a pistol duel at the Virginia convention; and how the soft-voiced James Madison defeated America's greatest orator. Vastly entertaining, based on documented and newly-available sources, this book is both a popular history and an important contribution to the study of the founding of the American Republic. U.S. Supreme Court former Chief Justice Warren Burger avers, "This book and its companion Constitutional Journal should be required reading to graduates from high school." ungekürzt.

A Sovereign People: The Crises of the 1790s and the Birth of American Nationalism , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 672min
How George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and John Adams navigated the nation through four major crises and caused the first stirrings of American nationalism. Americans like to believe that the Constitution miraculously brought the United States into being, as though the framers established, in one stroke, the nation we know today. Yet when George Washington delivered his First Inaugural Address on April 30, 1789, he expressed worry about the challenges that lay ahead. He was right to be concerned: The existence of the new nation was anything but secure. Without the support of the American people, after all, the Constitution was only a piece of paper. In A Sovereign People, her brilliant new political history of the 1790s, the acclaimed historian Carol Berkin argues that the young nation would not have survived absent the interventions of the Federalists, above all Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and John Adams. In power throughout the decade, they faced four successive crises of sovereignty. The Whiskey Rebellion was a domestic revolt over the right of the federal government to levy taxes. The Genet Affair saw a reckless French diplomat appeal directly to the American people, in opposition to Washington. The XYZ Affair involved foreign threats intended to draw the United States into a European war. The final crisis was self-inflicted, the result of the Federalists' desire to silence their critics in the press, in the form of the Alien and Sedition Acts. In each instance the Federalists demonstrated the necessity of the federal government established by the Constitution, and by decade's end the American people understood that without an "energetic government", there could be no United States. As Berkin ultimately reveals, while the Revolution freed the states and the Constitution linked them as never before, it was the Federalists who transformed them into an enduring nation. ungekürzt.

The Hidden History of the Supreme Court and the Betrayal of America: The Thom Hartmann Hidden History Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 255min
Thom Hartmann, the most popular progressive radio host in America and a New York Times best-selling author, explains how the Supreme Court has spilled beyond its constitutional powers and how we the people should take that power back. Taking his typically in-depth, historically informed view, Thom Hartmann asks: What if the Supreme Court didn't have the power to strike down laws? According to the Constitution, it doesn't. From the founding of the republic until 1803, the Supreme Court was the final court of appeals, as it was always meant to be. So where did the concept of judicial review start? As so much of modern American history, it began with the battle between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists, and with Marbury v. Madison. Hartmann argues it is not the role of the Supreme Court to decide what the law is, but rather the duty of the people themselves. He lays out the history of the Supreme Court of the United States, since Alexander Hamilton's defense to modern-day debates, with key examples of cases where the Supreme Court overstepped its constitutional powers. The ultimate remedy to the Supreme Court's abuse of power is with the people - the ultimate arbiter of the law - using the ballot box. America does not belong to the kings and queens; it belongs to the people. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Pratt.

American Will: The Forgotten Choices That Changed Our Republic , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, a much-talked-about 2016 presidential candidate, offers 14 lessons from our nation's past and discusses how they can be used to restore American courage, faith, and wisdom. In American Will, Governor Jindal brings to life some of the greatest lessons in our nation's history and explores how they have defined our current state of affairs - including the exciting story behind the Louisiana Purchase, the conflict between the Federalists and anti-Federalists, Reagan vs. Nixon's welfare fight, and how the Cold War was nearly lost. Each event relates back to a moment in Governor Jindal's career where he had to make an important decision for the people of Louisiana. Among the many topics covered in this audiobook are elective wars overseas, the size of government, church and state, freedom of religion, American exceptionalism, the nature of our enemies, and the consequences of a divided Republican Party. These important issues continue to define our country's legacy, and Governor Jindal will use his strong sense of history, purpose, and direction to guide his decisions now and in the years to come. The next great turning point in American history will be the 2016 presidential election. Will we elect a follower or a leader? Will we pick a cynic or a statesman? Will we choose a politician or a problem solver? American Will's dramatic tales illuminate the courage, faith, and vision that we need in 2016 - and the government folly, corruption, and myopia that jeopardize our future. ungekürzt.
