In this historical yet somewhat dramatic account of the Roman emperors, you'll find judgments, opinions, and for the most part, hard facts about the rulers of the vast empire that controlled the Mediterranean Sea and beyond for centuries. You'll discover the disgust of historians with Nero's and Caligula's murderous inclinations, their incest, their sexual orgies, and their betrayal. You'll hear of Julius Ceasar's success and totalitarianism during his despot reign.

Langston Hughes, born in 1902, came of age early in the 1920s. In The Big Sea he recounts those memorable years in the two great playgrounds of the decade - Harlem and Paris. In Paris he was a cook and waiter in nightclubs. He knew the musicians and dancers, the drunks and dope fiends. In Harlem he was a rising young poet - at the center of the "Harlem Renaissance." Arnold Rampersad writes in his incisive new introduction to The Big Sea, an American classic: "This is American writing at its best...."

Historia
For 13 violent months in the 1930s, John Dillinger and his gang swept through the Midwest. The criminals of the Depression robbed almost at will, as the Indiana State Police had only 41 members, including clerks and typists. Dillinger's daring escapes at Crown Point jail or through the withering machine gun fire of FBI agents at Little Bohemia Lodge, along with his countless bank robberies, excited the imagination of a despondent country.

When Mark Twain was growing up, all he wanted to be was a steamboat man. And so Twain ran away in pursuit of his dream. Life on the mighty river for Twain consisted of paddleboats and history, poker games and gamblers, larger-than-life characters and outlandish festivals like Mardi Gras. Twain recorded it all with his keen eye for detail and biting wit.

It has been one hundred years since Agatha Christie wrote her first novel and created the formidable Hercule Poirot. A brilliant and award-winning biographer, Laura Thompson now turns her sharp eye to Agatha Christie. Arguably the greatest crime writer in the world, Christie’s books still sell over four million copies each year - more than thirty years after her death - and it shows no signs of slowing.

Historia
Just before Christmas in 1843, a debt-ridden and dispirited Charles Dickens wrote a small book he hoped would keep his creditors at bay. His publisher turned it down, so Dickens used what little money he had to put out A Christmas Carol himself. He worried it might be the end of his career as a novelist. The book immediately caused a sensation. And it breathed new life into a holiday that had fallen into disfavor, undermined by lingering Puritanism and the cold modernity of the Industrial Revolution.

Granted extensive access to the group's archives along with several other sources, the author reveals the early Fellowship's conflicts and personalities, successes and failures, and dispels many of the myths found in such canonical texts as Dr. Bob and the Good Old Timers, Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of Age, and A Brief History of the Big Book.

Critical thinking can be defined as "finding out how to think better by enhancing one's thinking skills". People who are critical thinkers use the thinking procedure to evaluate, consider, reflect on, and piece together what they have learned or are currently learning. Unfortunately, much of everybody's thinking tends to be prejudiced, imprecise, uncertain, uninformed, or even sexist or racist. Since this ends up being significantly limiting, critical thinking is needed to improve its quality and value.

In this landmark work, one of the world's most renowned Egyptologists tells the epic story of this great civilization, from its birth as the first nation-state to its final absorption into the Roman Empire - 3,000 years of wild drama, bold spectacle, and unforgettable characters. Award-winning scholar Toby Wilkinson captures not only the lavish pomp and artistic grandeur of this land of pyramids and pharaohs but for the first time reveals the constant propaganda and repression that were its foundations.

Historia
William Wallace started out as a humble knight, but he died a war hero. He gave up everything in his fight for Scottish freedom, including his life. When captured, Wallace was hung, drawn, and quartered by the English king for crimes against the crown. Though he was memorialized in the 1995 film Braveheart, this book tells how much of what we associate with Wallace is more legend than fact. Still, the spirit of the great Scotsman lives on in the hearts and minds of his compatriots today.

Historia
From about the ninth to fifth centuries BCE, the population of Greece grew unprecedentedly large, expanding from about 800,000 people to as many as 13 million. About a quarter million of these lived in Athens. The average size of urban households during this period grew considerably, a fact that suggests that food was suddenly available in excesses sufficient to keep larger families healthy and alive much more effectively than just a millennium earlier. Bigger families meant bigger armies and larger communities that would eventually grow into the metropolises of Classical Greece.

What do you know about the emperors of Rome? Rome had good and bad emperors, selfish and selfless ones. Some were wise, others were foolish. And each left their legacy and their imprint on historical concepts of the Roman empire itself. In this book, we will explore the details of a number of these emperors, especially some of the best-known ones that have been hand-picked by the editors of this book.

Wow
Both the storyteller and the writer put some great effort into this. The big difference between this audio book and other audio books, is actually that this is much better. I do not always enjoy all audiobooks, but this stuck out. And since it did, I began listening to it. It was some of the best time I spent, particularly since I was doing some other things in the meantime.

Fascinating
Cool! Have you ever before listened to a book like this? This specific audiobook was definitely well worth listening to, in my view. I managed to comprehend everything plainly, not only because the narrator pronounced the terms very well, but also since the information in it included new facts to be learned.

This is a fascinating combo book that contains tons of information about slaves, sex lives, prostitutes, emperors, soldiers, families, habits, and structures in the ancient Roman world. Very good book. 12 hours long. Good enough for me.

The writer really understands how to state it perfectly. This is an exciting audio book. Thus, the 5 star rating I'm posting. Despite of the writer's knowledge about the idea, the storyteller was still the element I was most impressed with. This is what really sold me on the writer's book.

I have absolutely no complaints about this particular audiobook. If I would have to outline it, it would be simply in 1 term: Excellent! The articulation of the words in this particular audiobook was excellent, as well as all the info contained in it. Based on that, I am really happy that I got the book. It was actually worth my time.

The 5 stars really should be 6 stars. Yes, that's it. You heard me. I believe it's so good that it should have 6 stars. There were so many points in this book that I didn't know before. I am glad I got it. It was well worth my time, especially since I listened to it while driving to work. I do not always appreciate any audiobooks, but this stuck out. And because it did, I started listening to it. It was some of the best time I spent, especially since I was doing some other tasks in the meantime.

Odd writing - Author not Historian or Classicist
I'm not sure exactly how to describe this audio-book. It is chock full of information, but it all seems to be given as the "truth" or as fact. However, rarely does the author provide proof or cite reference material. He seems to know the exact dates, often including the day, of when everything happened, nearly on a week-by-week basis. After reading many historical books about the ancient Roman Empire, I am used to the authors explaining how they know what they think they know and even providing many alternative ideas.
The writing seems very uneven. Some passages sound quite well written, while many seem never to have been edited, with erroneous word usage, incomplete sentences, etc.
I will say I listened to about 3/4 of the book, just letting the information and writing style flow. I found it interesting, but decided to move on to more scholarly work.
