  Americans generally show great respect for their troops, and rightfully so. But what is the history of the US Armed Forces? How did the American military come about?  
  The answers to these questions might not be quite as straightforward as you might think. The American military industrial complex, as one former president once called it, was not always so streamlined and efficient.  
  It began more or less as a ragtag bunch of colonialists and revolutionaries who struggled with some of the most fundamental concepts of military discipline. Nevertheless, this ragtag group ultimately shook off the yoke of the British Empire and forged an independent nation.  
  In this audiobook, we take a look at America’s military might from its inception to the present day. We explore the beginnings of both pre- and post-revolutionary America, the Mexican-American War, the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, the world wars, the wars in Korea and Vietnam, the War on Terror, and more. The American military is still considered a force to be reckoned with, and its story is one that continues to be written about.  
  In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:The interesting origin of the US Armed ForcesThe participation of American militias in the Revolutionary WarArmed conflict during the Civil WarAmerica’s participation in the world warsHow America was involved in the Cold War conflictThe War on Terror and how it influenced world politicsHow American’s military advanced throughout the yearsAnd much more!

  The Chinese Dragon by L. Newton Hayes is a compelling exploration of the mythical creature that has long symbolized power, wisdom, and prosperity in Chinese culture. Written in the early 20th century, this insightful study draws upon folklore, religious beliefs, visual arts, and first-hand accounts to paint a vivid picture of the dragon’s enduring significance in Chinese tradition. Hayes examines the creature's diverse roles—from divine guardian to celestial force—while contrasting its revered image in the East with the often fearsome depiction in Western mythology. Blending academic scholarship with cultural storytelling, this audiobook offers listeners an enlightening journey through the historical, symbolic, and spiritual dimensions of one of humanity’s most iconic legendary beings.

  Unlike people with carefree previous lives, I packed away my past. There are some memories labeled 'Look at', and others 'Leave well alone' . . . 
   
   
   
  Emily Smith was held in a prison of fear for ten years. When she was four, her father left and a new man was brought into her life. He loved her, he kept telling her so, but the emotional and physical abuse she suffered at his hands were a daily nightmare. Until one day, after he crept into her bedroom, her life became unbearable. 
   
   
   
  Emily found she was different in another way as her autism became more noticeable and punishments for her 'abnormal' behavior more severe. Astonishingly, she managed to escape her home of hell, where she was abused right in front of her mother. Emily determinedly gained a university place and emerged triumphant with a new life and family in Ireland, desperate to treat her daughter, so similar to her, to a different life. 
   
   
   
  Heartbreakingly true, Silent Child is a testament to Emily's strength as she sheds light on rampant abuse still happening today. Powerful and shocking, sharing her story means she finally has a voice to say: enough.

  It is difficult to imagine a more heinous crime than the sexual abuse of children. Yet, terrifyingly, a new case of child sexual abuse is reported every seven minutes. In response to this crisis, self-appointed groups of citizens are fashioning themselves as pedophile hunters." Operating outside the law, these groups use social media to bait and expose those seeking to engage children sexually, both on- and offline. Their work has been remarkably effective, but at what cost? Following four years of unprecedented access to the UK's most prolific team of pedophile hunters, Mark de Rond offers balanced and insightful answers to the perplexing question of why these groups persist in using extreme methods to hold predators to account in view of less harmful alternatives. In doing so, he invites us to consider the societal impacts of pedophile hunters on our laws and institutions, as well as societal cohesion and safety.
