Title: The Ukrainian Night: An Intimate History of Revolution

Author: Marci Shore

Narrator: Callie Beaulieu

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 24 minutes

Release date: April 19, 2022

Genres: Military

Publisher's Summary:

A vivid and intimate account of the Ukrainian Revolution, the rare moment when the political became the existential What is worth dying for? While the world watched the uprising on the Maidan as an episode in geopolitics, those in Ukraine during the extraordinary winter of 2013–14 lived the revolution as an existential transformation: the blurring of night and day, the loss of a sense of time, the sudden disappearance of fear, the imperative to make choices. In this lyrical and intimate book, Marci Shore evokes the human face of the Ukrainian Revolution. Grounded in the true stories of activists and soldiers, parents, and children, Shore's book blends a narrative of suspenseful choices with a historian's reflections on what revolution is and what it means. She gently sets her portraits of individual revolutionaries against the past as they understand it—and the future as they hope to make it. In so doing, she provides a lesson about human solidarity in a world, our world, where the boundary between reality and fiction is ever more effaced.

Title: [German] - Auf Feindfahrt mit U 139: Weltkriegsthriller über ein deutsches U-Boot im Einsatz

Author: Stefan Köhler

Narrator: Vincent Fallow

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 56 minutes

Release date: April 12, 2022

Genres: Military

Publisher's Summary:

Lassen Sie sich diesen Hochspannungs-Roman vom Militärexperten Stefan Köhler nicht entgehen! Nach seinem Bestseller 'Einsatzbericht – Im Fadenkreuz' legt er erneut einen mitreißenden U-Boot-Roman vor, der den Krieg zur See in all seiner Grausamkeit darstellt. Anfang 1942: Die deutsche U-Boot-Waffe befindet sich auf dem Höhepunkt ihrer Macht, doch mit den USA hat ein neuer Kriegsgegner das Schlachtfeld betreten. In dieser Gemengelage erhält Kapitänleutnant Wegener, Kommandant von U 139, einen brisanten Auftrag: Zusammen mit drei weiteren U-Booten soll er in die Karibik aufbrechen, um dort die US-amerikanische Handelsschifffahrt zu stören. Doch bereits das Auslaufen aus dem Kriegshafen in Brest gereicht zum Ritt auf der Rasierklinge. Britische U-Jagd-Gruppen liegen auf der Lauer, allseits bereit, jedes deutsche U-Boot mit Wasserbomben auf den Grund des Atlantiks zu schicken. Der Durchbruch ins offene Meer gelingt Kaleu Wegener, aber er und seine Mannschaft stehen erst am Anfang einer lebensgefährlichen Reise. Alliierte Kriegsschiffe und Flugzeuge sind dabei nicht die einzige Gefahr für die Besatzung von U 139. Einer der Neuzugänge der Mannschaft vergiftet zusehends die Atmosphäre an Bord. 7.000 Kilometer von der Heimat entfernt, fordert er Kaleu Wegener heraus, während sich die Alliierten längst an die Fersen von U 139 geheftet haben. Die folgenden Ereignisse fordern dem erfahrenen U-Boot-Kommandanten alles ab. 'Auf Feindfahrt mit U 139' ist ein spannungsgeladener und erschütternder Roman, der den Krieg zur See auf realistische Weise nachzeichnet. Auf dem Höhepunkt Ihrer Macht vermochten die deutschen U-Boote jährlich mehr als 8 Millionen Bruttoregistertonnen Schiffsraum zu versenken. Den Preis dafür zahlten die deutschen U-Boot-Fahrer. Von der Propaganda gefeiert, kehrten viele von ihnen nicht von ihren gefahrvollen Feindfahrten zurück. Welches Schicksal erwartet U 139? Finden Sie es heraus, indem Sie auf 'Jetzt Kaufen' klicken.

Title: [German] - G/GESCHICHTE - Die Geburt des Krieges

Author: G Geschichte

Narrator: Clemens Benke

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 1 hour 41 minutes

Release date: April 8, 2022

Genres: Military

Publisher's Summary:

Kriege sind das große Paradox der Menschheit. Damit Gesellschaften sie führen können, ist nach innen eine umfassendere – und oft auch selbstlosere – Kooperation nötig als bei fast jeder anderen Tätigkeit. Und nach außen das genaue Gegenteil. Nur so können sich Menschen ohne Rücksicht auf das eigene Leben gemeinsam auf Fremde stürzen, um diese zu töten. Diese Ausgabe von G/Geschichte geht der Frage nach, wann und wie dieses widersprüchliche Verhalten begann. Und ob es einen Ausweg daraus gibt. Der Wuppertaler Geschichtsprofessor Armin Eich bejaht dies in seinem Essay, trotz aller Rückschläge in jüngster Zeit: »Der Krieg ist als Sozialverhalten entstanden und kann auch wieder verschwinden.«-

Title: Hannibal: Rome’s Greatest Enemy

Publisher's Summary:

Telling the story of a man who stood against the overwhelming power of the mighty Roman empire, Hannibal is the biography of a man who, against all odds, dared to change the course of history. Over two thousand years ago one of the greatest military leaders in history almost destroyed Rome. Hannibal, a daring African general from the city of Carthage, led an army of warriors and battle elephants over the snowy Alps to invade the very heart of Rome's growing empire. But what kind of person would dare to face the most relentless imperial power of the ancient world? How could Hannibal, consistently outnumbered and always deep in enemy territory, win battle after battle until he held the very fate of Rome within his grasp? Hannibal appeals to many as the ultimate underdog—a Carthaginian David against the Goliath of Rome—but it wasn't just his genius on the battlefield that set him apart. As a boy and then a man, his self-discipline and determination were legendary. As a military leader, like Alexander the Great before him and Julius Caesar after, he understood the hearts of men and had an uncanny ability to read the unseen weaknesses of his enemy. As a commander in war, Hannibal has few equals in history and has long been held as a model of strategic and tactical genius. But Hannibal was much more than just a great general. He was a practiced statesman, a skilled diplomat, and a man deeply devoted to his family and country. Roman historians—on whom we rely for almost all our information on Hannibal—portray him as a cruel barbarian, but how does the story change if we look at Hannibal from the Carthaginian point of view? Can we search beneath the accounts of Roman writers who were eager to portray Hannibal as a monster and find a more human figure? Can we use the life of Hannibal to look at the Romans themselves in an unfamiliar way—not as the noble and benign defenders of civilization, but as ruthless conquerors motivated by greed and conquest?
