Synopsis

The classic story collection brings to life a close-knit Jewish neighborhood of Brooklyn as a group of boys make their journey to adulthood. In these thirteen stories Arthur Granit introduces readers to the lost world of Brownsville as it was in the 1920s. As neighborhood boys grow up together through adventures and misadventures, friendships and trials, Granit observes their evolution against the backdrop of a changing city. Here is the wild humor—and occasional sadness—of life in a teeming Brooklyn Jewish community.

  • Educating in Faith - A History of the English Catholic Public School - cover

    Educating in Faith - A History...

    Roman Catholic public schools in England emerged from the early 1800s as part of the wider educational mission of a Catholic church seeking to support a growing Catholic population.
    
     
    Around a dozen such schools – male, boarding, upper class and staffed by priests, monks and brothers from the dioceses and religious orders – had emerged by the early twentieth century. Some – Ampleforth, Stonyhurst, St Edmund’s, Beaumont, the Oratory, Downside, or Prior Park – catered for an aristocratic clientele, whilst others – Douai, Mt St Mary, Ratcliffe or Cotton – sought more middle class pupils. Their objectives were similar: the creation of a new Catholic elite which might take its place in the Establishment.
    
     
    By the mid-twentieth century, they were at their zenith, but at the millennium they faced the challenges of declining vocations to the religious life, a stagnant Catholic population, and a series of child sexual abuse cases.
    
     
    Educating in Faith seeks to place a diverse set of school histories within the wider demographic, social and religious development of Roman Catholicism in England. It seeks to move beyond the finer detail of school histories to better understand the place of the public schools within the Catholic educational mission and the nature of the academic, cultural and spiritual character of these institutions. As co-education, increasing competition, the disappearance of a religious workforce in the schools and the child sexual abuse crises altered school environments, the book reflects on the contemporary relevance, place and character of these schools.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    I’ve met every kind of scammer you can think of. 
    The quiet ones who whisper you into doing whatever they want. 
    The loud ones who slam the phone and make you doubt yourself. 
    The ones who believe their own stories.  
    And the ones who don't believe in nothin' at all. 
    The Scammer’s Playbook isn’t “based on true events.” 
    It’s my field notes — real cases, real scams, real losses. 
    How the truth gets bent until it tucks neatly into someone’s pocket. 
    How trust is built one small, honest-looking step at a time… right up until it’s time for the hard goodbye. 
    I wrote The Scammer’s Playbook vol. 1 to show you the angles — the language, the timing, the psychology — all the nuances that make a scam work. 
    Once you see the patterns, you know exactly what time it is. 
    You’ll recognize the play before it even begins.

    Slippery Beast - A True Crime...

    What is it about eels? Depending on who you ask, they are a pest, a fascination, a threat, a pot of gold. Eels emerged some 200 million years ago, weathered mass extinctions and continental shifts, and were once among the world's most abundant freshwater fish. But since the 1970s, their numbers have plummeted. Because eels—as unagi—are another thing: delicious. 
     
     
     
    In Slippery Beast, journalist Ellen Ruppel Shell travels in the world of "eel people," pursuing a fascination with this mysterious creature. Despite centuries of study by thinkers from Aristotle to Leeuwenhoek to Sigmund Freud, much about eels remains unknown. Eels cannot be bred reliably in captivity and infant eels are unbelievably valuable. A pound of the tiny, translucent, bug-eyed "elvers" caught in the fresh waters of Maine can command $3,000 or more on the black market. Illegal trade in eels is an international scandal measured in billions of dollars every year. In Maine, federal investigators have risked their lives to bust poaching rings. 
     
     
     
    Ruppel Shell follows the elusive eel from Maine to the Sargasso Sea, stalking riversides, fishing holes, laboratories, restaurants, courtrooms, and America's first commercial eel "family farm." This is an enthralling, globe-spanning look at an animal that you may never come to love, but which will never fail to astonish you.
