Beschreibung

This book gives us the vivid insight into the incredible life and achievements of President McKinley, not to focus solely on his tragic death. The author nevertheless describes in graphic words the assassination. It is a word picture that will linger forever in the memory of every reader, calling forth sympathy and patriotism on behalf of the martyr President and undying contempt and horror of the assassin and the foul and cowardly thing called anarchy. Every detail of that now historic scene is told so vividly that the reader sees it as if he were an eye-witness.

    An unforgettable story of survival and resilience in the death camps of World War II. 
    A miracle unfolded on October 9, 1944, at Auschwitz. Amidst the gas chambers and crematoria, a ragtag group of Jewish boys, aged thirteen to seventeen, were marched naked into Crematorium 5, their names already crossed out in Nazi ledgers as “gestorben,” or “dead.” They would soon be put to death in the infamous gas chambers. 
    But just moments before Zyklon B pellets were released, fate intervened: three German officers arrived on motorbikes and ordered their evacuation, selecting them to unload a consignment of potatoes from Greece. 
    This is their astonishing story. Miracle: The Boys Who Escaped the Gas Chamber in Auschwitz illuminates their incredible journey from the brink of death to lives of profound purpose and resilience. 
    Experience the raw emotion, the struggle for survival, and the enduring power of faith amidst unimaginable cruelty. These boys—who survived concentration camps, death marches, and constant dehumanization—rebuilt their families and became living testaments to hope. 
    Through archival research, survivor testimonies, and haunting personal accounts, Miracle gives voice to a chapter of Holocaust history that was nearly lost. It reveals how a single twist of fate and the strength of the human spirit changed the course of so many lives. 
    Miracle is more than a historical account; it is a memorial of tears, defiance, and unimaginable dignity, urging us to remember and carry forward their legacy for a better future. Their courage echoes through time, reminding us that even in history’s darkest moments, the light of humanity can prevail.

    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.

    THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER  
    ‘A heart-breaking story of courage and compassion from the front line of the toughest battle our nurses have had to fight. Anthea Allen’s writing is raw, honest and full of love for those she cares for.’ Susanna Reid 
    An extraordinarily powerful memoir based on the diaries of intensive care nurse Anthea Allen, who worked on the front line of one of the largest hospitals in Europe during the Covid crisis. 
    A nurse for 25 years, Anthea thought she had seen it all. But with Covid came the greatest trial, personally and professionally, of her life. Thrust into hourly challenges – many a matter of life and death – while on the Critical Care units of St George’s in south London, Anthea processed her shocking experiences through writing. It started with an email to request biscuits. But her appeal to help boost the morale of her fellow nurses soon turned into a series of astonishingly moving stories detailing the realities of being a front line worker. 
    It wasn’t long before Anthea’s accounts were circulating far and wide, capturing the attention of the nation and being feted by the likes of Richard Branson and Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid. 
    In Life, Death and Biscuits, Anthea reveals the human story behind Covid, sharing tales of hope, fear and laughter from both her ‘family’ of nurses and the patients she encountered. Forged in a crisis, this deeply affecting memoir offers a unique and inspiring perspective on the pandemic that simultaneously tore the world apart and brought us together. Both heart-wrenching and uplifting, it serves as a testimony to love, resilience and the human spirit. 
    Anthea Allen, the Sunday Times bestselling author, provides an intimate look into the world of healthcare during a pandemic in her memoirs. Her autobiography, a bestselling book, explores the themes of grief, bereavement, and the psychological impact of contagious diseases on both patients and healthcare workers. 
    For fans of Christie Watson (The Language of Kindness), Linda Watson-Brown (Don't Say A Word), Aoife Abbey (Seven Signs of Life), Maggie Hartley (Battered, Broken, Healed), and Amir Khan (The Doctor Will See You Now).

    Here is Dr. Wernher von Braun’s incredible story – from his early years in Germany, where he gave birth to modern rocketry, to his arrival in the United States and his launching of the first American satellite, the first man on the moon and other stunning space exploration feats. “Every page of Wernher von Braun’s life is a monument to the drama of adventure. Few people have been fighting so hard and, indeed, very few have been subject to so much criticism, so much jealousy, so much defeat—yet, very few have lived to be honored and to harvest the fruits of so many wonderful victories as has this man.” Author Erik Bergaust has had the advantage of knowing von Braun as a friend, hunting and fishing companion, space business associate—and biographer—for more than twenty-five years. Thus, he has been able to present a dramatic portrait of an important personality and a 20th century hero.
