    History for Kids: The Eskimos and the Inuit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 27min
    Perfect for ages seven to 10. In Charles River Editors' History for Kids series, your children can learn about history's most important people and events in an easy, entertaining, and educational way. The concise but comprehensive book will keep your kids' attention all the way to the end. North Americans have long been fascinated by the Inuit, but this level of interest has been matched by a general lack of knowledge about the group itself. For centuries they have been called Eskimos, despite the facts that there are distinct differences within the group and many of them find the use of the word Eskimo offensive. With that said, the group's lifestyle has long been of interest to outsiders simply based on the fact that it's so different. The Inuit live in harsh Arctic climates in Canada, America, Russia, and even Greenland, and they are descendants of the very people who historians believe crossed the land bridge that once connected Russia to Alaska thousands of years ago. Given the Inuit's history and lifestyle, as well as general Eskimo stereotypes, the Inuit have long been associated with igloos, sleds, pack dogs, and other aspects of culture that people think of when they think of Alaska and freezing weather. The Inuits' homelands ensured that they came into less contact with Europeans than other Native American groups in North America, which has also added a degree of mystery to them. Legends and myths about the Inuit spread, including the allegation that they would put babies with physical deformities to death like the ancient Spartans. Historians still speculate that the Vikings came into contact with the Inuit when Leif Ericson sailed to the northern tip of Newfoundland, and it's even believed that the Inuits' movements in that region (including to Greenland) helped displace the Europeans from their earliest colonies. ungekürzt.

    The Siege of Leningrad: The Greatest Battles in History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 89min
    The city is dead. There is no electricity, no trams. Warm rooms are rare. No water. Almost the only form of transport is sleds, carrying corpses in plain coffins, covered with rags or half clothed. Daily, six to eight thousand die. The city is dying as it has lived for the last half year - clenching its teeth. (Nikolai Markevich's diary entry on January 24, 1942.) The casualties inflicted on all sides during World War II nearly defy belief and, even today, estimates of the number of dead differ by tens of millions of people. Amid all of the destruction and carnage, perhaps nothing symbolizes the war quite like the Siege of Leningrad, one of the longest sieges in history and by far the deadliest. When the Soviet-Nazi nonaggression pact of 1939 was broken by a German offensive against Russia, the surprised Red Army was quickly driven eastward away from the border with Poland, and Russian forces found themselves in a desperate attempt to defend major Russian cities from the Germany invaders. Leningrad, which had a population of roughly three million on the eve of the German attack, was one of the victims of the Russian unpreparedness, but once the siege began in the fall of 1941, the Soviets knew they were in a desperate struggle to the death. In fact, the Russians wouldn't have even been given a chance to surrender if they had wanted to, because the orders to the German forces instructed them to completely raze the city: "After the defeat of Soviet Russia, there can be no interest in the continued existence of this large urban center.... Following the city's encirclement, requests for surrender negotiations shall be denied, since the problem of relocating and feeding the population cannot and should not be solved by us...." ungekürzt.

    Lead Sleds and Low Riders
    At the Sacramento Autorama, the main focus of attention is long and low-riding 'custom' cars, rather than hotrod coupes and open roadsters. Sleek, smooth, sculptured sedans are the stars here and the event is always billed - and always accepted - as The World's Largest Custom Show. This is what happened as we cruised the 1996 show, zooming in for a close-up look at the star cars, talking to the guys who build and drive these beauties and taking a (lengthy!) peek at the famous annual bikini conte
