    Angeline Reddy is the daughter of a famous lawyer, but she's no stranger to rule-breaking. Growing up in the wild gold-mining town of Bodie, California, in the 1880s, Angeline has seen it all - saloons, brawls, dance halls, and a whole lot of desperation. But nothing's more exciting than seeing her daddy, Patrick Reddy, in action in the courtroom. Yet when Angeline's beau, a detective, ends up on trial, she finds herself tangled in a dangerous mystery as she attempts to help clear his name. In the pages of her diary, Angeline begins to piece together the clues - stumbling across more than one murder and plenty of people with secrets they're fixing to keep.

    Night Winds , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 234min
    Set in the late 1800s, with plenty of action and humor. Blue Cantor was born in one of the worst brothels along the Texas border. His mother gave him the unusual name of Blue not because of love or affection; it was simply because blue was the color of his eyes. His last memories of her were when he was a child and the day she died in the fire that scarred his face. Blue and Micah became friends when trapping along the Green River. Both men were loners but found they had a lot in common. They were on their own at an early age and had grown to love the untamed wilderness, whether it was scouting for a wagon train or fighting their way out of some of the toughest saloons in the West. ungekürzt.

    Path of Progress: One Man's Fight for Women's Rights , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 786min
    It’s the late 1800s, and John Ogilvie Stevenson, pastor of the Congregational Church in Waterloo, Iowa, believes women are equal to men intellectually, and superior to men morally and spiritually. During a sermon on temperance, wherein he advocates laws to shut down the saloons, he is struck by the irony that his audiences are composed mostly of women - that segment of the citizenry who cannot vote. Thus begins his campaign for women’s suffrage. A large portion of the public believes a woman’s place is in the home, and that she has no business in politics, and probably isn’t smart enough to vote. Every two years, the state legislature considers putting an amendment on the ballot for a public vote on the issue, and time after time, it doesn’t get that far. The Reverend John Stevenson never gives up. Through the triumphs and tragedies of his own personal life, he is determined to forge the path to progress.   ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Lawmen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 219min
    Lawmen in the old west played a juggling act as far as the law was concerned. It was necessary for a successful lawman to be both tougher and smarter than the outlaw. In reality, the lawman was guilty of committing offenses that would be punishable if committed by the outlaw. The Earp Brothers were no saints. Marshal Henry Plumber was hanged for crimes he committed while wearing a badge. Most of the sheriffs and marshals wearing badges also played at gambling, often even owning the gambling concessions in the town saloons. As one would suspect, it was gambling that caused much of the trouble in town. The lawmen found themselves both supporting gambling while controlling angry gamblers. Most lawmen were good with guns and practiced daily. Being a second late on a draw against a fast outlaw gunman could spell the difference in which man lived. Western author Alton Pryor has brought a host of western lawmen together in one book. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Greg Nelson.
