  Group Captain Gilbert Insall holds a unique record: he is the only person to have both won a Victoria Cross and escaped successfully from a German prisoner of war camp during the First World War. The Madness of Courage describes how, when forced down by engine damage after destroying a German fighter, Gilbert ignored intensive shelling in order to repair his aircraft and return to base. But a few weeks later, he was shot down and captured. And thus began a distinguished career in prison breaking.
  He tunnelled out of Heidelberg prison camp and later hid among boxes on a horse-drawn cart to get away from Crefeld, each time being recaptured. Then, in Ströhen, Gilbert and several companions concealed themselves in a claustrophobically small space they had excavated under the floor of the bathhouse. They remained there for seventeen hours, while a fruitless search for them was carried out, and eventually emerged and successfully reached Holland.
  Meticulously told by Gilbert's great-nephew, the critically acclaimed intelligence historian Tony Insall, The Madness of Courage is a gripping true story about a remarkable man at a time before the Geneva Convention was signed, when conditions for prisoners of war were often appalling and the British War Office did little to help prisoners escape. Instead, Gilbert's family, assisted by French intelligence, gave him the support he needed to break out of captivity in an extraordinary feat of bravery, resilience and ingenuity.

  Let's face it: anxiety can interfere with every single aspect of your life, from work and family to relationships and finances. Left unchecked, the cycle of anxiety reinforces and perpetuates itself over time, and can leave you feeling paralyzed with fear. 
   
   
   
  In What Happened to Make You Anxious?, anxiety expert Jaime Castillo offers a whole new approach; one that focuses less on avoiding or extinguishing anxiety, and more toward understanding and working with it to create a fulfilling, meaningful life. You'll learn how your anxiety is connected to what Castillo refers to as "little 't' traumas"—seemingly small, unhealed traumas from your past that drive your fear and worry, so you can get to the root of your anxiety and start healing. 
   
   
   
  Your anxiety works overtime communicating perceived threats; this book will show you how to listen to anxiety, discern which threats are real, which don't fit the actual facts of the situation, and which are triggered by past events. 
   
   
   
  You've tried managing it on your own. You may have even received treatment. If you're at your wit's end when it comes to your anxiety, this book will show you a new path toward lasting relief.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  From the blood-soaked mountains of 18th-century Albania, a legend was forged in fire and vengeance. Ali of Tepelena, driven by his father’s murder and the indomitable will of his mother, Khamko, rises from a dispossessed kleft to a cunning warlord. His ambition knows no bounds, his ruthlessness no mercy. He outwits pashas, tames wild clans, and carves a formidable pashalik from the decaying heart of the Ottoman Empire, making Ioannina his glittering, fear-laden capital. 
  But as the Lion of Ioannina’s power swells, so too does the envy of his rivals and the alarm of Sultan Mahmud II in Constantinople. Ali plays a dangerous game with European powers, navigates treacherous Ottoman politics, and wages brutal wars against defiant foes like the heroic Souliotes. His reign becomes a court of stark contrasts: opulence and terror, patronage and purges. Can one man, however mighty, defy an empire forever? Or will his insatiable hunger for power lead to a devastating downfall, leaving behind a legacy as complex and bloodstained as the mountains he once claimed as his own?
