    The Last POW , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min
    How did an 85-year old grandfather from Palo Alto, California, end up a prisoner in North Korea? The Last POW is the true story of Merrill Newman, a retired Silicon Valley executive and Korean War veteran who was hauled off his plane at Pyongyang airport as he was about to return home at the end of a tourist trip in late 2013. For nearly two months, he was held by North Korea's fearsome security services, subjected to intensive interrogation, and repeatedly warned that if he did not confess his "crimes", he might never be allowed to return home. In visiting the North, Newman was returning for a final glimpse of the country where he had served a half century earlier. Perhaps naively - and in sharp contrast to America's former enemies, Japan, Germany, and Vietnam - he did not realize that for the North Koreans, the war had never ended. His role in 1953 as a US military adviser to the "Kuwol Comrades" - anti-communist Korean guerrillas who fought behind North Korean lines - convinced a paranoid North Korean regime that despite his age, his heart condition, and the passage of time, Newman was a dangerous "enemy" agent. The Last POW is the exclusive account of Newman's ordeal - how the North Koreans tried, without success, to break his will; his interactions with his sinister interrogator and the other North Koreans involved in his detention; the "confession" he was forced to broadcast; and how he tried to signal he was being coerced. While Merrill was detained in Pyongyang, his family - his wife, Lee, living in a retirement home in Palo Alto; and his son and daughter-in-law in Pasadena - were frantically trying to determine what had happened to him and what they could do to secure his freedom. Newman's detention became a symbol of the seemingly irreconcilable differences that keep North Korea and the US in a permanent state of tension and revealed the inner workings of the security apparatus of one of the world's most totalitarian states ungekürzt.

    The Korean Soul: A Collection of Poems , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 150min
    The Korean Soul: A Collection of Poems by H. C. Kim explores themes and ideas that are of importance to Koreans around the world, such as the current stand-off between South Korea and North Korea. By hearing H. C. Kim's poems, the listener will be able to see through the soul of Koreans. These poems are powerful testimonies to collective experiences of a people who boast 5,000+ years of history. There were happy moments, sad moments, tragic moments - but they were all memorable experiences. Powerful ideas explored in the poems include the Korean encounter with colonialism. Insightful verses on power and powerlessness make an important contribution to the spirit of human rights and make the listener a believer in the human potential and will. Those who are suffering will find empathy and sympathy in the common human experience of suffering, captured amazingly in poetry. In 1995, the poet, H. C. Kim, was selected as one of ten Raoul Wallenberg Scholars in a nationwide competition in the United States. The ten scholars spent a year in Israel at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem to explore the spirit of human rights and democracy and their importance in the modern world. Kim's poems exhibit a deep social consciousness that stems from that experience. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Anne Evans.

    895 Days That Changed The World - The presidency of Gerald R. Ford
    On August 9, 1974, President Nixon resigns because of criminal activity in connection with Watergate and flies to California. At noon that day, Gerald R. Ford becomes the 38th president of the United States. It was left to Gerald Ford to heal a war-torn and scandal-ridden nation and to restore credibility to the presidency in the wake of Watergate and Vietnam. Few presidents have ever been asked to achieve so much in so little time against such great adversity. In the 895 days that made up his term in office, he would deal with South Vietnam, North Korea, the Helsinki Accord, Cuba, the operational transfer of the Panama Canal, the death of Franco, the invasion of East Timor by Indonesia, public outrage at CIA misdeeds, the US Bicentennial, and Operation Paul Bunyan, a reassurance to South Koreans and a warning to North Koreans. It is Graeme Mount's belief that developments that changed the world took place when President Ford led the United States. In some of these, he was an instigator; in some, he reacted to events precipitated by others. Making extensive use of the Gerald Ford Presidential Library, both the archives and the museum, Mount examines the very documents produced by President Ford, members of his cabinet, and the White House staff and through that examination offers a window on the world between August 1974 and January 1976 that provides new insights into a troubling period of US history and Ford's role in guiding the nation through it. Historian Graeme Mount is the author of some 13 books, including "Chile and the Nazis" (Black Rose, 2002) and "The Diplomacy of War: The Case of Korea "(Black Rose, 2004). He has, as well, written extensively onUS/Canadian relations in "An Introduction to Canadian-American Relations" and "Invisible and Inaudible in Washington."
