  American Cookery, by Amelia Simmons, was the first known cookbook written by an American, published in 1796. Until this time, the cookbooks printed and used in what became the United States were British cookbooks, so the importance of this book is obvious to American culinary history, and more generally, to the history of America.

  How I Found the Lost Atlantis!...

  Dr. Paul Schliemann

  The article on which this audio book is based was published in the 'New York American' on October 20th, 1912.  
  The author, Dr. Paul Schliemann, was the grandson of Heinrich Schliemann (1822 - 1890), a founder of modern archaeology. In this famous archaeological hoax he makes outrageous and sensational claims about the lost continent Atlantis, and his grandfather’s research.  
  The text was written in an age when many of the Victorian adventure writers, like H. Rider Haggard in Britain, Emilio Salgari in Italy and Karl May in Germany topped reading lists. In 1912, the jungle calls of Tarzan echoed through American pulp magazines for the very first time.  
  Paul Schliemann capitalizes on the contemporary craze for his grandfather’s archaeological discoveries, for lost worlds and legendary characters like the queen of Sheba and Prester John. Since 1907, Howard Carter had been excavating in Egypt, and in 1922 Carter made his historical discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. 
  Paul Schliemann’s article is highly entertaining, and features passages reminiscent of Indiana Jones. Michael Henrik Wynn, the editor of the educational net radio stream Historyradio.org, gives a spirited performance of what has become a classic and much loved hoax in archaeological circles.

  The Word of Dog - What Our...

  Mark Rowlands

  A heartwarming philosophical meditation on how to live a fulfilling life—inspired by the inherent happiness of dogs. 
   
   
   
  If you have spent any part of your life with a dog, you may have found certain questions popping, unbidden, into your mind: Is my dog living a fulfilled life? Is my dog a good dog? Does my dog love me? Addressing these questions compels you to confront not just your dog's life but yours as well—to think about what fulfillment, and meaning, in life really is. 
   
   
   
  In The Word of Dog, philosopher Mark Rowlands explores these questions and suggests that in dogs we can see hints—faint, shrouded, but discernible—of what a better way of living might look like. Perhaps none of us can be happy in the way a dog can, but The Word of Dog shows us we could do a lot better than we're doing simply by listening to the unspoken wisdom our dogs reveal to us every day of their happy, uncomplicated lives.

  Help Yourself - The Surface

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Help Yourself – The Surface is a roadmap for creators who refuse to fade into the noise. Life’s rhythm can feel relentless—rules, expectations, and judgment beating down until your inner music goes silent. But what if you could turn that chaos into sound? What if every scar became a note in your comeback song? 
  This book is my story of doing exactly that—rewriting pain into purpose through music. From a five-year-old on a piano bench in Latvia’s Song and Dance Festival, surrounded by 12,000 voices, to dark nights in underground clubs where raw riffs became lifelines. Each chapter reveals how rhythm, resilience, and creativity can pull you from collapse to clarity. 
  Like The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron and Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, this book helps you unlock your creative pulse and reconnect with your power. It’s a guide for dreamers, rebels, and Gen Z creators searching for a sense of meaning in a world that moves too fast. 
  You’ll learn to find your “reset word”—mine is music—to anchor yourself through struggle. You’ll see how small wins, like in Atomic Habits, build unstoppable momentum. You’ll face fear and resistance like in The War of Art, and find freedom through vulnerability, echoing Daring Greatly. 
  From metal bands to Fruity Loops sessions, from trauma and betrayal to founding Fresh Music Frontier (FMF)—a platform born to lift artists—the journey shows that creation isn’t just expression; it’s survival. 
  Help Yourself – The Surface is a manifesto for anyone ready to turn pain into progress, noise into melody, and doubt into drive. If Man’s Search for Meaning taught us to find light in suffering, this book turns that light into sound. 
  Your life is a track in progress. It’s time to hit play.
