  This epic historical adventure tells the story of pre-colonial Aotearoa New Zealand like it's never been told before. A young Māori man, compelled to learn the stories of his ancestors, returns to his family marae on the east coast of the North Island to speak to his elderly grand-uncle, the keeper of the stories. What follows is an enthralling account of the young man's tipuna, the legendary warrior Kaitanga, after whom his marae's whare puni has been named. Tracing the author's own ancestral line, Kāwai: For Such a Time as This reveals a picture of an indigenous Aotearoa in the mid-18th century, through to the first encounters between Māori and Europeans. It describes a culture that is highly sophisticated with an immense knowledge of science, medicine and religion; proud tribes who live harmoniously within the natural world; a highly capable and adaptable people to whom family and legacy are paramount. However, it is also a culture illuminated by a brutal undercurrent of inter-generational vengeance, witchcraft and cannibalism.

  Before the bullet, before the stage, before the assassination that shocked a nation—there was a family. 
  Booth is a sweeping, intimate portrait of one of the most infamous names in American history, told not through the eyes of the assassin, but through the siblings, parents, and complex legacy that shaped him. Set in 19th-century America, this audiobook dives deep into the dramatic, often chaotic Booth household: a father hailed as a theatrical genius, a mother holding a family together, and children grappling with identity, ambition, and loyalty in a country on the verge of civil war.
