    In just over a hundred years - from the death of Muhammad in 632 to the beginning of the Abbasid Caliphate in 750 - the followers of the Prophet swept across the whole of the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain. Their armies threatened states as far flung as the Franks in Western Europe and the Tang Empire in China. The conquered territory was larger than the Roman Empire at its greatest expansion, and it was claimed for the Arabs in roughly half the time. How this collection of Arabian tribes was able to engulf so many empires, states, and armies in such a short period has perplexed historians for centuries. Most accounts of the Arab invasions have been based almost solely on the early Muslim sources, which were composed centuries later to illustrate the divinely chosen status of the Arabs. Robert Hoyland's groundbreaking new history assimilates not only the rich biographical information of the early Muslim sources but also the many non-Arabic sources, contemporaneous or near-contemporaneous with the conquests. In God's Path begins with a broad picture of the Late Antique world prior to the Prophet's arrival, a world dominated by two superpowers: Byzantium and Sasanian Persia. In between these empires, emerged a distinct Arabian identity, which helped forge the inhabitants of western Arabia into a formidable fighting force. The Arabs are the principal actors in this drama yet, as Hoyland shows, the peoples along the edges of Byzantium and Persia - the Khazars, Bulgars, Avars, and Turks - all played critical roles in the remaking of the old world order. The new faith propagated by Muhammad and his successors made it possible for many of the conquered peoples to join the Arabs in creating the first Islamic Empire. Well-paced, comprehensive, and eminently readable, In God's Path presents a sweeping narrative of a transformational period in world history.

    The Gospel in Brief is a 1902 synthesis of the four gospels of the New Testament into one narrative of the life of Jesus by Russian author Leo Tolstoy. The work focuses on Jesus's teachings to his followers, presumably those which Tolstoy found most compelling. The Gospel in Brief is thought by some to be deeply reflective of Tolstoy's own interpretation of Christianity. The account presented in Tolstoy's gospel is also notable in its sharp contrast with the contemporaneous views of the Russian Orthodox Church. Tolstoy was a fierce critic of the Russian Orthodox Church, which went so far as to excommunicate him for his writings on Christianity in 1901. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gregg Rizzo.

    In Liars: How Progressives Exploit Our Fear for Power and Control, Glenn Beck exposes the past and present onslaught led by the left against the tenets of free society in the United States. For generations, progressives have been attempting to curb individual liberty in order to construct what they claim will be a more prosperous and peaceful society. Unfortunately, many of them are motivated by an underlying insecurity, bigotry, and mistrust in other people's abilities to make good decisions for themselves. Some progressives have even studied the revolutionary ideas of modern European malcontents, whose thoughts and writings, while contemporaneous with the rise of the United States, led to communism and socialism. Please note: This is a summary of the book and not the original book. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dwight Equitz.

    Based on 18 months of reporting, Woodward's 17th book The Price of Politics is an intimate, documented examination of how President Obama and the highest profile Republican and Democratic leaders in the United States Congress attempted to restore the American economy and improve the federal government's fiscal condition over three and one half years. Drawn from memos, contemporaneous meeting notes, emails, and in-depth interviews with the central players, The Price of Politics addresses the key issue of the presidential and congressional campaigns: the condition of the American economy and how and why we got there. Providing verbatim, day-by-day, even hour-by-hour accounts, the book shows what really happened, what drove the debates, negotiations, and struggles that define, and will continue to define, the American future. ungekürzt.

    For 2500 years, the Ancient Greeks have fascinated the West, who look to Greece as the creators of Western culture. Indeed, the Greeks revolutionized warfare, art, architecture, government, philosophy, and more. Of all the Greeks' accomplishments, many can be credited to the two most famous city-states of all: Athens and Sparta. The most unique city-state in Ancient Greece was Sparta, which continues to fascinate contemporaneous society. It is not entirely clear why Sparta placed such a great emphasis on having a militaristic society, but the result was that military fitness was a preoccupation from birth. If a Spartan baby did not appear physically fit at birth, it was left to die. Spartan children underwent military training around the age of seven years old, and every male had to join the army around the age of 18. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

    Wayne May is the publisher of Ancient American, a popular archaeology magazine about "The Americas Before Columbus" that he founded in 1993. Since then he has identified our country's sixth-century BC Hopewell culture with contemporaneous Hebrews described in the Book of Mormon, showing a Semitic presence in North America, and has released five volumes on the subject in his This Land series (Hay River Press, WI). A sought-after lecturer at alternative science conferences across the US, May continues to successfully challenge conventional wisdom upholding Christopher Columbus as the lone discoverer of our continent by connecting Book of Mormon revelations with striking parallels in the latest archaeological finds. Personally following up on the vast evidence he collected, May has participated in and directed a number of paradigm-shattering excavations in Illinois, Missouri, and Wisconsin, where he produces Ancient American and lives with his wife, Kris, outside the town of Colfax.
