Christopher Columbus, 1451 - 1506 (Dramatised): Explorers and Pioneers, Volume One, Hörbuch, Digital, 62min
Columbus did not discover America. That honour goes to Norseman Bjarni Herjolfsson, whose storm-driven Viking longship took him briefly to the mainland of North America. Yet it was five centuries before Europeans arrived once more on the American coast. Columbus happened to be the first. Curiously, the phrase "The Indies", was not mentioned in the famous Capitulation, an agreement signed by the king and queen of Spain before Columbus sailed on his epoch-making voyage. It merely stated that he was permitted to search for islands and a mainland in the said ocean. It said nothing of Columbus's obsessive idea that a ship could reach the east by sailing westwards. That was his own personal dream and because of it, instead of discovering a sea route to the Indies, he opened up a whole new world. Language: English.

Berlin: The Downfall: 1945 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1089min
Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Berlin by Antony Beevor, read by Peter Nobel. Berlin: The Downfall: 1945 is Antony Beevor's brilliant account of the fall of the Third Reich. The Red Army had much to avenge when it finally reached the frontiers of the Reich in January 1945. Political instructors rammed home the message of Wehrmacht and SS brutality. The result was the most terrifying example of fire and sword ever known, with tanks crushing refugee columns under their tracks, mass rape, pillage and destruction. Hundreds of thousands of women and children froze to death or were massacred because Nazi Party chiefs, refusing to face defeat, had forbidden the evacuation of civilians. Over seven million fled westwards from the terror of the Red Army. Antony Beevor reconstructs the experiences of those millions caught up in the nightmare of the Third Reich's final collapse, telling a terrible story of pride, stupidity, fanaticism, revenge and savagery, but also one of astonishing endurance, self-sacrifice and survival against all odds. ungekürzt.

Blue Skies, No Fences: A Memoir of Childhood and Family, Hörbuch, Digital, 338min
Utilizing her extensive knowledge and love of American history, and the research skills she honed while acquiring a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin, Lynne Cheney set out to explore her own and her husband's family trees. After years of research, she uncovered two family histories that spanned almost three centuries and shared common themes of optimism, perseverance, and undaunted courage. Both families moved westwards in a growing nation, seeking lives of greater opportunity. Mrs. Cheney provides information about her family, which originally settled in Pennsylvania, and the vice president's family. He is descended from Puritans who originally settled in New England. She relates true stories about noteworthy and colorful members of both families and each family's progress westward. As the narrative draws closer to to the present day, Mrs. Cheney movingly recounts her life as a small-town girl outside of Casper, Wyoming. The poignant realism with which she depicts mid-20th-century America will remind listeners of Thornton Wilder's classic American drama Our Town. Providing a fresh view of America via generations of two adventurous families, as well as information about conducting genealogical research, Mrs. Cheney entertains and enlightens, and is sure to inspire listeners to explore their own family histories.
