The Last Whalers: The Life of an Endangered Tribe in a Land Left Behind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 683min
The epic story of the world's last subsistence whalers.At a time when global change has eradicated thousands of unique cultures, The Last Whalers tells the stunning inside story of the Lamalerans, an ancient tribe of 1,500 hunter-gatherers who live on a volcanic island so remote it is known by other Indonesians as 'The Land Left Behind'. They have survived for centuries by taking whales with bamboo harpoons but now are being pushed toward collapse by the encroachment of the modern world.Award-winning journalist Doug Bock Clark, who lived with the Lamalerans across three years, weaves together their stories with novelistic flair to usher us inside this hidden drama. Jon, an orphaned apprentice whaler, strives to earn his harpoon and feed his ailing grandparents. Ika, Jon's indomitable younger sister, struggles to forge a modern life in a tradition-bound culture and realise a star-crossed love. Ignatius, a legendary harpooner entering retirement, labours to hand down the Ways of the Ancestors to his son, Ben, who would rather become a DJ in the distant tourist mecca of Bali.With brilliant, breathtaking prose and empathetic, fast-paced storytelling, Clark details how the fragile dreams of one of the world's dwindling indigenous peoples are colliding with the irresistible upheavals of our rapidly transforming world and delivers to us a group of families we will never forget.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio on our Desktop Site. ungekürzt.

Moon Boots and Dinner Suits: An Autobiography, Hörbuch, Digital, 200min
Published for the first time in audio - Jon Pertwee's infamous autobiography, Moon Boots and Dinner Suits, read by Terry Molloy. Jon Pertwee's acting career began with a public performance at the age of four. He seems to have been expelled from most of the schools his actor-writer father, Roland Pertwee, sent him to and finally joined RADA in 1936. From there, too, he was asked to leave. Jon went into Rep and had a checkered career. In Brighton panic set in when he dressed as an old gardener in Love from a Stranger instead of as a young cleric in Candida. In 1938 came Jon's first radio role in the BBC's Lillibulero, in which year he also appeared in his father's play, To Kill a Cat, directed by Henry Kendall at the Aldwych Theatre. When war came he joined the navy, ramming Douglas Pier with an Isle of Man Steam Packet boat. He was blown up twice, once put on a marble slab and presumed dead, and spent many months stationed in the Scapa Flow. He was the founder of the Service Players in the Isle of Man. He was commissioned in the RNVR and transferred to naval intelligence, where he worked and became good friends with the future Prime Minister James Callaghan. Then Jon joined Naval Broadcasting. His radio series, The Navy Lark, ran for 18 years and produced some truly vintage memories of radio. Whether telling stories of a misspent youth, of his posterior's first painful introduction to a fives bat or of his exploits with the McKenzie sisters in the north of Scotland, Jon Pertwee's humour and natural wit never fail him. Moon Boots and Dinner Suits is a wry, funny and endearing portrait of the early years of a most innovative and well-loved actor. Language: English. Narrator: Terry Molloy.

About the Book Series,INFLIGHTBook #2Ex-CIA Jon Bradley 3-Series Thriller INFLIGHT, Book #2, continues with the action-oriented plot of dangerous and intriguing, multi-dimensional characters, revolving around a family sharing a terrorist bloodline, including their agenda of personal vendetta. Ex-CIA operative, Jon Bradley, is swept into investigating the sudden, brutal homicide of his mentor and friend, Eugene Lewek, the former Vietnam, CIA agent, suspected of being the local Mossad's Sayan asset, which leads him to question Joanne Ross, one of Lewek's last contacts. The latter, abandoned and abused as a child, grows up to be a narcissist psychopath, who is obsessed with discovering the identity and whereabouts of her elusive parents, both of whom have a shady past. Enters the scene, Khaleed al Abbasi, alias Pierre al-Khoury, the spurned son of the fugitive Hezbollah's mastermind, set forth on his agenda of family revenge. On the personal front, Jon Bradley assists the NYPD Sex Crime Division in the investigation and the arrest of the NBA celebrity, James Wainsford, the alleged rapist of his lady friend, Samantha Clarke, an attorney in the D.A.'s office. On the last day before exiting his FBI's Counterterrorism posting after being re-assigned to the CIA's Middle-East Division, Jonathan Bradley is drawn into a hostage crisis created by the homegrown terrorist cell led by Youssef Hariri, who is determined to avenge his father's death at the hands of the Mossad. Mohammed al Abbasi, in reality, Imad Darwish, a former powerful Lebanese Christian politician, and businessman, known by his infamous name of "Surq" - the Falcon, is presently active, moving from Iran to far-off African regions of Sudan-Uganda-Kenya-Somalia, inciting the tribes to sectarian infighting and revolts against the governments, facilitated by his illegal weapons and drugs trafficking.
