Story
This gripping audiobook dramatises the extraordinarily compressed and terrifying period between the surprise Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour and Hitler's declaration of war on the United States. These five days transformed much of the world and have shaped our own experience ever since. Simms and Laderman's aim in the audiobook is to show how this agonising period had no inevitability about it and that innumerable outcomes were possible.

Story
Jim spielt den Dummen. Es wäre zu gefährlich, wenn die Weißen wüssten, wie intelligent und gebildet er ist. Als man ihn nach New Orleans verkaufen will, flieht er mit Huck gen Norden in die Freiheit. Auf dem Mississippi jagt ein Abenteuer das nächste: Stürme, Überschwemmungen, Begegnungen mit Betrügern und Blackface-Sängern. Immer wieder muss Jim mit seiner Schwarzen Identität jonglieren, um sich und seinen jugendlichen Freund zu retten. Percival Everetts »James« ist einer der maßgeblichen Romane unserer Zeit, eine unerhörte Provokation, die an den Grundfesten des amerikanischen Mythos rüttelt.

Story
Americans have long been fascinated by the Civil War, marveling at the size of the battles, the leadership of the generals, and the courage of the soldiers. The Civil War was the deadliest conflict in American history, and had the two sides realized it would take four years and inflict over a million casualties, it might not have been fought. Since it did, however, historians and history buffs alike have been studying and analyzing the military and political history of the conflict ever since.

Story
Some refugees who had fled from Germany, in an attempt to escape Nazi persecution, were rounded up, interned, and later used in a prisoner exchange program between the United States and German governments. The American government also went to great lengths to secure Germans living across Latin America, who they believed posed a tangible threat, should they cross America’s southern border. In spite of a preponderance of evidence affirming the occurrence of these events, the United States government persistently denied it for decades.

Story
The internment of Japanese Americans in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor is second only to slavery in terms of America's most tragic and regrettable chapters in history. While the forced relocation and internment of Japanese Americans living on the West Coast during the Second World War is widely recognized - they have even received apologies and compensation from the US government - what is not as well-known is that between 1941 and 1948, approximately 10,000 Americans of German descent were also forcibly interned at camps scattered across the United States.

Story
When war broke out in Europe in August 1914, the new German luxury ocean liner SS Vaterland was interned in New York Harbor, where it remained docked for nearly three years - until the United States officially entered the fight to turn the tide of the war. Seized by authorities for the US Navy once war was declared in April 1917, the liner was renamed the USS Leviathan by President Woodrow Wilson and converted into an armed troop carrier.

The summer story of three sisters, one restaurant, and a (possible) German spy. World War II is coming in Europe. At least that’s what Frankie Baum heard on the radio. But from her small town in Maryland, in the wilting summer heat of 1939, the war is a world away. But when some people in town start accusing her father of being a German spy, all of a sudden the war arrives at Frankie’s feet and she can think of nothing else. Could the rumors be true? Frankie has to do some spying of her own to try to figure out her father’s secrets and clear his good name.

Story
In the 1840s, an organization of German noblemen, the Mainzner Adelsverein, attempted to settle thousands of German emigrants on the Texas frontier. Nassau Plantation, located near modern-day Round Top, Texas, in Northern Fayette County, was a significant part of this story. No one, however, has adequately documented the role of the slave plantation or given a convincing explanation of the Adelsverein from the German point of view.

Story
Der Amerikanische Bürgerkrieg - der einzige jemals auf dem Boden der USA ausgetragene Krieg - hat im 19. Jahrhundert die Existenz der Vereinigten Staaten in Frage gestellt und wird allgemein als das zentrale Ereignis in der Entwicklung des Landes auf dem Weg zur heutigen Weltmacht betrachtet. Die Loslösung der elf Südstaaten von der amerikanischen Union endete nach vier Jahren erbitterter Kämpfe mit der Niederlage der Konföderierten und dem wirt-schaftlichen Ruin des Südens, während der Norden durch den Krieg einen ungeheuren kon-junkturellen Aufschwung erfahren hatte. Neueste militärische Erfindungen und Techniken wie Schützengräben, Minen, Schnellfeuergewehre und Kriegsschiffe hatten diesen Krieg zum ersten "modernen" Krieg in der Geschichte gemacht.
