  United States in World War II...

  All Americans are familiar with the “day that will live in infamy.” At 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, December 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor, the advanced base of the United States Navy’s Pacific Fleet, was ablaze. It had been smashed by aircraft launched by the carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy. All eight battleships had been sunk or badly damaged, 350 aircraft had been knocked out, and over 2,000 Americans lay dead. Indelible images of the USS Arizona exploding and the USS Oklahoma capsizing and floating upside down have been ingrained in the American conscience ever since. In less than an hour and a half the Japanese had almost wiped out America’s entire naval presence in the Pacific.  
  	The United States began 1942 determined to avenge Pearl Harbor, but the Allies, now including the Soviet Union by necessity, did not agree on the war strategy. In 1941, both the Germans and British moved armies into North Africa, where Italy had already tried and failed to reach the Suez Canal. The British sought American help in North Africa, where British General Bernard Montgomery was fighting the legendary “Desert Fox,” General Erwin Rommel. At the same time, Stalin was desperate for Allied action on the European continent that could free up the pressure on the besieged Soviets.  
  	President Roosevelt had a consequential decision to make, and he eventually decided to land American forces on North Africa to assist the British against Rommel, much to Stalin’s chagrin. While the Americans and British could merely harass the Germans with air power and naval forces in the Atlantic, Stalin’s Red Army had to take Hitler’s best shots in Russia throughout 1942. But the Red Army’s tenuous hold continued to cripple the Nazi war machine while buying the other Allies precious time. 
  	As it turned out, Roosevelt’s decision to first fight in North Africa would make an Allied invasion of the European continent possible in 1943.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  To try and sum up this book in a few sentences, is very difficult. 
  It is a complex subject! 
  It talks about the relationship between mind and body – in fact not just mind and body, but creation itself, and how our physical reality is brought about by what we habitually think. 
  So thought is spiritual, and is the basis for our entire creation. 
  To bring anything into reality, it must be first thought of – conceptualised. 
  The creation of the physical follows the thought. 
  The book spends some time discussing our bodies, and the makeup thereof. Both the physical makeup, where there are many types of cells, each with its own unique function, and the spiritual makeup, where there is the conscious and subconscious mind. 
  Our bodies are run and managed by the subconscious mind, which is independent, but linked to the conscious mind, where thoughts can be impressed on the subconscious by the conscious mind. 
  So be careful what you habitually think, as it can become your reality – think positively all the time, or certainly as much as you can! 
  As the original book was written in 1922, and the audiobook is a straightforward translation, the language can sometimes be difficult to understand, but persevere! 
  The messages and explanations given about life, our thoughts and our reality are fascinating, and immensely valuable. 
  Well worth the time to listen!

  Alexandra Petri's US History -...

  A witty, absurdist satire of the last 500 years, Alexandra Petri's US History is the fake textbook you never knew you needed! 
   
   
   
  Alexandra Petri's US History contains a lost (invented!) history of America. (A history for people disappointed that the only president whose weird sex letters we have is Warren G. Harding.) Petri's "historical fan fiction" draws on real events and completely absurd fabrications to create a laugh-out-loud, irreverent takedown of our nation's complicated past. 
   
   
   
  On Petri's deranged timeline, John and Abigail Adams try sexting, the March sisters from Little Women are sixty feet tall, and Susan Sontag goes to summer camp. Nearly eighty short, hilarious pieces span centuries of American history and culture. Nikola Tesla's friends stage an intervention when he falls in love with a pigeon. The characters from Sesame Street invade Normandy. And Mark Twain—who famously said reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated—offers a detailed account of his undeath, in which he becomes a zombie. 
   
    
   
  This side-splitting work of historical humor shows why Alexandra Petri has been hailed as a "genius," a "national treasure," and "one of the funniest writers alive."

  The 16 Human Desires That Make...

  Pleasure is the desire to feel good — emotionally, mentally, and psychologically. 
  It is what makes life feel engaging and sustainable. When pleasure is absent, people don’t just feel bored — they feel depleted. 
  In this audiobook, Reece Wideman explores what pleasure really is, how it shapes behavior and buying decisions, and why denying pleasure often leads to excess rather than discipline. 
  Listeners will gain insight into how pleasure influences spending, motivation, escapism, and emotional regulation — and how conscious enjoyment restores balance instead of undermining progress. 
  Designed for creators, professionals, and anyone seeking sustainable motivation, Pleasure offers a grounded understanding of one of the most human desires.
