  This audiobook is a continuation of The Oberlin-Wellington Rescue. Circumventing the Ohio statues to punish participants in a slave rescue mission is the theme of this astonishing narration. Based on the actual trial from the Oberlin Wellington Rescue, courtroom corruption will be brought to light. Confirmed historical documentation characterized in this audiobook contradicts a major theory surrounding ," The Oberlin Wellington Rescue" by most historians. A more in depth legal look takes place on the prosecution of Simeon Bushnell, an alleged participant in the rescue mission testimonies, and the verdict. Like the audiobook, "The Oberlin Wellington Rescue", the narrator employs multiple character voices to give the listener a sense of what it was like to be at the trial in Cleveland, Ohio in the year 1859. History enthusiast of the Oberlin Wellington Rescue will find this extraordinary event packed with legal insight. And finally, institutionalized racism, and a blatant disregard for the divine law by the judicial system in 19th century Cleveland, Ohio is uncovered.

  The true and extraordinary story of one of the last surviving women to have worked in codebreaking at both Bletchley Park and the Pentagon. 
  Born one hundred years ago, Betty Webb MBE, LOH (Legion of Honour) has had a ringside seat to history. After graduating from school, she faced the usual limited opportunities for employment on offer to women at the time. However, with the war in full swing, fate intervened and in 1941, wanting to play her part in the war effort, Betty joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service (Women’s Army). 
  After being interviewed by an intelligence officer, she found herself at Euston station with her kit-bag, a travel warrant in her pocket and instructions to get off the train at Bletchley Park. 
  Between 1941 and 1945 Betty played a vital role in the top-secret efforts being made to decipher the secret communications of the Germans and later the Japanese. In 1945, as other members of the forces returned home from the war in Europe, she was sent to the Pentagon and was in Washington DC when the atomic bombs fell and when Eisenhower announced the end of the war. 
  Betty was unable to reveal the true nature of her work, even to her parents, until years later. In this fascinating book, she revisits the key moments of her life and recounts the incredible stories from her time at Bletchley Park.

  Our Business Civilization

  James Truslow Adams

  In Our Business Civilization, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James Truslow Adams delivers a sharp and thoughtful critique of early 20th-century American society. With incisive essays first published in leading magazines of the 1920s, Adams explores how business values and the pursuit of profit came to dominate nearly every aspect of American life—shaping its ethics, culture, and intellectual priorities. He contrasts the American experience with that of Europe, where older institutions such as the aristocracy, church, and professions balanced economic ambitions with cultural depth. 
  Adams raises urgent questions about materialism, the erosion of ethical standards, and the narrowing of social values in a business-dominated culture. This work remains strikingly relevant today, offering listeners a historical lens through which to consider the persistent tensions between commerce, culture, and the human spirit.
