Publisher's Summary:

I think I was destined to fly.... My dad was a barnstormer pilot back in the 1930s (which I talk about in my audiobook Growing up in Oklahoma). This is where I think the DNA thing kicked in, and I wouldn't be satisfied until I was flying through the air. I designed and built my own ultralight aircraft and literally taught myself to fly. Let me take you on some of these adventures; I think you will enjoy them as much as I did.

This audiobook is in three parts:

Part 1: how I learned to fly, and if it wasn't for a stranger (who mysteriously disappeared), I wouldn't be telling you this story.

Part 2: my first combat mission and how your mind can make things more interesting.

Part 3: my secret mission, and I will never do anything like it again.

Come along with me as I share these adventures with you.... I think they will make you smile.

Title: Fighting for Our Lives

Subtitle: The Raw True Story of One Mother's Battle for Life for Her and Her Baby

Author: Heather Choate

Narrator: Nancy Peterson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 1 min

Language: English

Release date: 01-27-16

Publisher: Akela Publishing

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

At age 29, best-selling author Heather Choate was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was 10 weeks pregnant with her sixth child. Her unborn baby became victim to the fast-spreading and highly dangerous cancer in Heather's body that already spread to her lymph nodes. Doctors told her she needed to abort her baby to save her life. Heather told them, "I'd rather die than take the life of my baby." She and her husband set out to find a way to save both her and her baby. The journey pushed them to the fringes of their stamina, tested the strength of their familial relationships, and found them clinging to their faith like it was the last bit of thread on a lifeline.

We all have unexpected adversity in life. It's those things that we think "will never happen to us". It could be the loss of job, the birth of a special needs child, the downturn of the economy, or an unexpected health challenge. Most of us would easily crumble under such circumstances, but Heather found that it's not about what happens to you, it's about what you do with it. You don't have to almost die to learn how to live, and Heather shows us how.

Despite adversity, nearly impossible challenges can be met, families can be strengthened, and faith can sustain even the most desperate souls on their journey. She brings her role as cancer-warrior into the real lives of listeners, addressing topics that affect them most: dealing with doubt and insecurity, discovering who they really are, renewing their passion, negotiating family strife, releasing relentless regrets, succeeding against temptation, weathering their worst fears, pressing on against fatigue and illness, uprooting bitterness, and more.

Fighting for Our Lives takes listeners on a journey of self-examination, appreciation for the beauties of today, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives.

Title: Peter Wessel Tordenskiold

Author: Dan H. Andersen

Narrator: Jesper Bllehuus

Format: Unabridged

Length: 18 hrs and 24 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-06-16

Publisher: Lindhardt og Ringhof

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Stor, rigt illustreret og revideret udgave af Dan H. Andersens bestsellerbiografi om shelten Tordenskiold. Han levede 1690-1720 og er en af de mest myteomspundne skikkelser i danmarkshistorien, kendt for sit vovemod, sin snarrdighed og sin kometkarriere inden for flden. Som kun 28-rig blev han udnaevnt til viceadmiral, som 30-rig blev han draebt i en duel.

Denne biografi er et psykologisk portraet af en blaendende begavet kriger, en smand uden sidestykke, men ogs et menneske, hvis sind var i evig kamp mellem beregning og spontanitet, mellem genersitet og hrdhed. Bogen tegner ogs et billede af Danmark under Store Nordiske Krig (1709-20), en af mest farverige perioder i skandinavisk historie. Her optraeder store personligheder som Frederik IV, Karl XII og Peter den Store, og handlingen straekker sig fra Skandinavien til Tyskland og med afstikkere til Indien, Afrika og Amerika.

Critic Reviews:

Et virkeligt fint stykke historieskrivning, lige fornemt fagkritisk, analytisk og laesevenligt.

-- Berlingske

Der er eventyr over det; det er ren drengebog.

Title: Kaufman's Hill: A Memoir

Author: John C. Hampsey

Narrator: John C. Hampsey

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 19 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-31-15

Publisher: Bancroft Press

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Kaufman's Hill opens with a prosaic neighborhood scene: The author and some other young boys are playing by the creek, one of their usual stomping grounds. But it soon becomes clear that much more is going on; the boy-narrator is struggling to find his way in a middle-class Catholic neighborhood dominated by bullies, the Creelys, who often terrify him. It's the Pittsburgh of the early and mid-1960s, a threshold time just before the full counter culture arrives, and a time when suburban society begins to encroach on Kaufman's Hill, the boy's sanctuary and the setting of many of his adventures. As the hill and the 1950s vanish into the twilight, so does the world of the narrator s boyhood.

"My pappy says if you're going to be afraid of everything, you may as well live in the sewer" are the words that first open the narrator's eyes. And once he befriends the enigmatic, erratic, but charismatic Taddy Keegan, he becomes bolder and no longer lives in abject fear of the Creelys. The narrator's relationship with Taddy proves to be unconventional, though. Taddy, caught in his own imaginary universe, is often unaware of companions around him and lives life as if he is a performer.

The narrator's world is a mix of exhilarating freedom because of absent parents, teachers, and priests and imminent dangers. This is what an American childhood used to be like, one reviewer claims, before it was organized out of existence: an anarchic voyage into the unknown realms of human possibility.

At home, the narrator's life is problematic. He observes his taciturn father as he copes with manic behaviors and cyclically repeating problems, while his mother struggles to better the life not just of her young son, but that of her African American cleaning woman in a time of racial animosity and racially-related urban violence.
