Title: Tilak: The Empire's Biggest Enemy

Author: Vaibhav Purandare

Narrator: Abhishek Ajay Sharma

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 16 hours 29 minutes

Release date: July 22, 2024

Genres: Law & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

Bal Gangadhar Tilak was considered to be the biggest threat to the British hegemony.He was prosecuted thrice for sedition.Was termed ‘the father of Indian unrest.’He was convicted for his fiery writings in his nationalist daily Kesari.Tilak, the first definitive biography of the man who raised the slogan that ‘freedom is my birthright and I shall have it.’Before Mahatma Gandhi, there was Bal Gangadhar Tilak – the revolutionary who ignited the spark of Indian nationalism. The Times, London, called him ‘the father of Indian unrest,’ and the one-time Secretary of State for India Edward Montagu felt he had ‘the greatest influence of any person’ on the Indian people. Above all, for the British Raj, Tilak was sedition-monger-in-chief, and it prosecuted him thrice for sedition.Hailed as ‘Lokmanya’ or ‘One Revered by the People,’ Tilak transformed India’s fight for freedom from polite discourse to a mass uprising. His fierce writings, relentless activism, and controversial stances earned him the title ‘enemy of the British government’ from the Raj, which saw him as its greatest threat. And at a time the British were undermining Indian self-esteem and dismissing Indians as ‘uncivilized heathens,’ Tilak argued powerfully and relentlessly that there was much of enormous value in India’s past, its culture, heritage and civilization, awakening Indians to a sense of their own identity. This definitive biography traces Tilak’s journey from his early days in Konkan to his influential role across India, highlighting his battles against the British, imprisonments, and commitment to Swaraj.Rediscover an icon of Indian history whose ideas and actions continue to resonate today. Bal Gangadhar Tilak’s story is not just a tale of resistance but a testament to perseverance and conviction.

Title: [German] - Schicksalsstunden einer Demokratie: Das aufhaltsame Scheitern der Weimarer Republik

Author: Volker Ullrich

Narrator: Peter Bieringer

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 11 hours 41 minutes

Release date: July 16, 2024

Genres: Law & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

-Platz 3 auf der HR-2 Hörbuch Bestenliste, September 2024- Demokratien sind fragil. Freiheiten, die fest errungen scheinen, können verspielt werden. Wenige historische Ereignisse verdeutlichen dies so eindringlich wie das Scheitern der Weimarer Republik. Volker Ullrich erzählt eines der größten Dramen der Weltgeschichte – anschaulich, spannend und nahe an den handelnden Personen. Eine Lektüre, die beklemmende Parallelen zur Gegenwart zeigt. Die Geburt der Weimarer Republik stand unter einem denkbar ungünstigen Stern. Das deutsche Kaiserreich hatte den Weltkrieg krachend verloren. Der Versailler Vertrag legte dem besiegten Land harte Bedingungen auf. Eine nicht abreißende Kette von Krisen – unterbrochen nur durch eine Phase scheinbarer Stabilisierung Mitte der 20er Jahre – erschütterte die Republik. Doch trotz aller Belastungen – das Experiment der ersten deutschen Demokratie war nicht von allem Anfang an auf ein ruhmloses Ende angelegt. In seinem packenden Buch zeigt der renommierte Historiker und Publizist, dass es immer wieder Gelegenheiten gab, die Weichen anders zu stellen, von der Gründungsphase der Republik bis zum Januar 1933. Es kommt auf die konkreten Handlungen einzelner Personen an – damals wie heute. So ist Ullrichs Buch auch eine eindringliche Mahnung: Wir haben es in der Hand, ob die Demokratie siegt oder scheitert.

Title: All the Worst Humans: How I Made News for Dictators, Tycoons and Politicians

Author: Phil Elwood

Narrator: Holter Graham

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 41 minutes

Release date: July 11, 2024

Genres: Law & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

After nearly two decades in the Washington PR business, Elwood wants to come clean, by exposing the dark underbelly of the very industry that's made him so successful. The first step is revealing exactly what he's been up to for the past twenty years - and it isn't pretty. Elwood has worked for a murderer's row of clients, including Gaddafi, Assad, and the government of Qatar -namely, the bad guys. In All the Worst Humans, Elwood unveils how the PR business works, and how the truth gets made, spun, and sold to the public - not shying away from the gritty details of his unlikely career. This is a piercing look into the corridors of money, power, politics, and control, all told in Elwood's disarmingly funny and entertaining voice. He recounts a four-day Las Vegas bacchanal with a dictator's son, plotting communications strategies against a terrorist organization in Western Africa, and helping to land a Middle Eastern dictator's wife a glowing profile in Vogue on the same time the Arab Spring broke out. And he reveals all his slippery tricks for seducing journalists in order to create chaos and ultimately cover for politicians, dictators, and spies - the industry-secret tactics that led to his rise as a political PR pro. Along the way, Phil walks the halls of the Capitol, rides in armored cars through Abuja, and watches his client lose his annual income at the roulette table. But as he moved up the ranks, he felt worse and worse about the sleaziness of it all -until Elwood receives a shocking wake-up call from the FBI. This risky game nearly cost Elwood his life and his freedom. Seeing the light, Elwood decides to change his ways, and his clients, and to tell the full truth about who is the worst human.

Dagelijks word je geconfronteerd met diepmenselijke tragedies die vaak jaren blijven nazinderen. Maak kennis met ervaren strafrechtadvocate Romy Geysen en haar memorabele cliënteel.

Voor haar geen blauwgrijs maatpak, maar liever een paar killer heels. In dit dagboek volg je Romy op de voet, langs gevangenissen en assisenhoven, bij zedenzaken, kruimeldiefstallen en het opdoeken van een drugslaboratorium. Tussendoor laat Romy je binnen in haar eigen gedachten, en zie je haar groeien van een - bij momenten naïef - groentje tot een zelfverzekerde strafpleiter.

Title: Riding with Reagan: From the White House to the Ranch

Author: John R. Barletta

Narrator: Christopher Grove

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 55 minutes

Release date: July 9, 2024

Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1

Genres: Law & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

John Barletta was a Vietnam veteran and Secret Service agent who spent over a decade with the Reagans, poised to give his own life at any moment to save the fortieth president of the United States. His superior riding skills made Barletta the perfect choice to protect Reagan during his frequent visits to the ranch. Over time, he got to know Reagan as few others did. In Riding With Reagan, John Barletta shares his one-of-a-kind memories of the President, painting a picture of a relaxed Reagan at his very best. Through his eyes, we see a rugged man who thrived outdoors, deeply loved his wife and children, and was a prankster at heart. Barletta also recalls the sad times: watching a once-robust Reagan fade into the dark shadows of Alzheimer's disease, and the painful moment when he had to tell the former president that his days of horseback riding had come to an end. Poignant and candid, Riding With Reagan is an intimate portrait of the man who remains one of the most popular presidents in our nation's history. A stirring ode to friendship, brotherhood, and the great outdoors, it celebrates a true hero whose life and spirit are the embodiment of what it means to be an American.
