Charlie Wilson’s War - George Crile - Audio Book

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

Charlie Wilson’s War is the untold story behind the last battle of the Cold War and how it fueled the rise of militant Islam. George Crile tells how Charlie Wilson, a maverick congressman from east Texas, conspired with a rogue CIA operative to launch the biggest, meanest, and most successful covert operation in the Agency’s history.

In the early 1980s, after a Houston socialite turned Wilson’s attention to the ragged Afghan freedom fighters who continued to fight the Soviet invaders despite overwhelming odds, the congressman became passionate about their cause and procured hundreds of millions of dollars to support the mujahideen.

Moving from the back rooms of the Capitol, to secret chambers at Langley, to arms-dealers conventions, to the Khyber Pass, this book is a detailed and brilliantly reported account of the inside workings of the CIA.

George Crile is a veteran producer for 60 Minutes and 60 Minutes II. He lives in New York with his wife and four daughters.

The narrator of this bestselling audio book, Christopher Lane is an award-winning actor, director, and narrator. Earning rave reviews on every book he has narrated for Blackstone, he received the coveted Audie Award in 2004. He lives in Washington, D.C.

Audio Bible Dramatized

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

A dramatized audio Bible allows you to do more Bible ‘reading’. Just think of all the time you spend idle when you are on your commute, waiting somewhere or doing manual chores that leave your brain and spirit empty.If you belong to the people who aspire to read the Bible cover to cover, then you know that this is quite a big undertaking and a major time commitment that can take years.

There may be a way to reach your gola earlier: listening to an audio Bible can dramatically speed up the time required to make it through the Holy Bible. If you can make just thirty minutes a day available, you can make it through the New Testament in about a month and half. Dramtized MP3 audio Bibles allow you also to easily return to sections that are important to you and relisten to them over and over again.

Audio Bibles also exist in specific editions for children, i.e. the NIrV Little Kids Adventure Audio Bible. There are different Bible versions for adults in audio format, i.e. the NIV Dramatized Audio Bible

Bo’s Lasting Lessons - Bo Schembechler

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007

Bo Schembechler was an American college football coach best known as the head coach at the University of Michigan, where he coached the Wolverines from 1969 until 1989. Schembechler won a total of 234 games; only Joe Paterno and Tom Osborne have recorded 200 victories in fewer games. A consummate “coach’s coach”, Schembechler combined superb technical command of the game with a fiery disposition.

In Bo’s Lasting Lessons, the coach draws on his years of experience, using first-person anecdotes to deliver timeless lessons on leadership, motivation and responsibility.

With pithy language, Bo explains that true leadership requires the compassion to actively listen to your people, and then to have the courage to do what is right every time.

Bo does not rely upon charts, graphs, or X’s and O’s to make his points; rather, he focuses on getting his players to challenge themselves and to reach for heights they had never thought possible.
