Story
O último audiolivro da trilogia Escravidão é dedicado ao século XIX, à Independência, ao Primeiro e ao Segundo Reinados, ao movimento abolicionista, que resultou na Lei Áurea de 13 de maio de 1888, e ao legado da escravidão, que ainda hoje emperra a caminhada dos brasileiros em direção ao futuro. A escravidão era, na definição de José Bonifácio de Andrada e Silva, o Patriarca da Independência, um cancro que contaminava e roía as entranhadas da sociedade brasileira. Disseminado por todo o território, o escravismo perpassava todas as atividades e todas as classes sociais.

Story
Did white South Africa crack, or did its leadership yield sufficiently, and just in time, to avert a revolution? The transformation has been called a miracle, belying gloomy predictions of race war in which the white minority went into a laager and fought to the last drop of blood. Why did it happen? David Welsh views the topic against the backdrop of a long history of conflict spanning apartheid's rise and demise and the liberation movement's suppression and subsequent resurrection.

Égypte ancienne est " ce jour de bonheur que les dieux ont offert aux hommes " (Paul Morand) : il est temps de le (re)découvrir. Le "mystère" a toujours été attaché à l'Égypte des Pharaons. Malgré l'avancée des connaissances, cette grande civilisation continue de charrier des théories pseudo-scientifiques ou ésotériques. Ce livre audio effectue un tri salutaire entre celles-ci et l'état du savoir des égyptologues et archéologues.

Thomas Jefferson was one of the men who helped to bring the United States into being, and he shepherded the country through some of the most dynamic political years in its history. It is possible that without his brilliance, the fledgling democracy, the first in the world since the end of Ancient Greece, may not have survived its first few trials by fire.

By the time he had reached the cusp of adulthood, Asad had honed an array of wily talents. At the age of 17, in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, he made good as a street hustler. He also courted the famously beautiful Foosiya and, to the astonishment of his peers, married her.

Story
Among all the periods in ancient Egyptian history, the Ptolemaic Kingdom and its most famous ruler, Cleopatra, may be the most well-known today. By the 4th century BCE, it appeared as though ancient Egypt was in its final death throes. It had long ceased to be an influential kingdom in the Near East and Mediterranean regions, and it had been ruled over by a succession of foreign peoples including Libyans, Nubians, Assyrians, and Persians. But just when Egypt seemed was doomed to pass forever into obscurity, it was reinvigorated by outsiders, most notably Alexander the Great.

King Leopold II of Belgium emerges from the pages of history as a curious character. He was a member of a privileged clique of European monarchs, bereft of power but rich, indulgent, and indolent. Leopold certainly availed himself of all the pleasures of court life, but he was also shrewd, astonishingly competent, and avaricious to an almost unimaginable degree.

Liberty Brought Us Here: The True Story of American Slaves Who Migrated to Liberia explores the motives and attitudes of colonization supporters and those who lived in the colony, offering perspectives beyond the standard narrative that colonization was driven solely by racism or forced exile.

Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965, the world is changing, and she suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
