    In this fast-paced epic, best-selling historian and master storyteller Arthur Herman spotlights two giants of the 20th century. Gandhi & Churchill shows how their 40-year rivalry revolutionized India and the British Empire, paving the way for a new era. Gandhi championed India's independence, Churchill the British Empire.

    I really enjoyed learning more about the history of India and Great Britain through the story of these two men's lives. I would love to read more on Gandhi and hope audible will make more titles available about this great man.

    Lauren is downtown Chicago's youngest elite realtor. She's also a witch. She must be - the fetching spell for Witches' Chat isn't supposed to make mistakes. So says the woman who coded the spell, at least. The tall, dark, and handsome guy sent to assess her is a witch too (and no, that doesn't end the way you might think). What he finds in Lauren will change lives, mess with a perfectly good career, and require lots of ice cream therapy.

    Story

    Magic is all around the characters and it is great to get lost in their tales.The story and the narrator fit together perfectly. This book is a wonderful change from many fantasy books which rely heavily on death and destruction to move their storyline forward. I look forward to the next book in the series.

    Story

    I have enjoyed this series several time in the past and was happy to listen again. Joseph Campbell has wonderful insight into the human experience. He helps the listener see how all religions and people are interconnected. He reminds us that we need to follow our bliss and discover our path in the world. Bill Moyers understanding of Joseph Cambell's work makes for an exceptional interview.

    Any additional comments?

    Women in our society have been taught the importance of being polite. In this book Gavin describes why being polite and not trusting our intuition can cost us our lives. He offer suggestions for how women can keep form being victims. I only wish this book was available in an unabridged format. I have now purchased the book to read.

    Clara Barton was one of those diminutive New England women of the 19th century who was determined to make the world a better place. What Susan B. Anthony was to women's suffrage and Harriet Beecher Stowe was to the cause of abolition, Clara Barton was to the humanitarian impulse of the American people to help the unfortunate victims of war and disaster.

    This is a charming short set of stories about how the red cross made a difference in peoples lives. The story was told by Clara Barton, the founder of the American Red Cross. It is a wonderful reminder of what a small group of caring people can do to bring about change.

    Always Looking Up is a memoir of Michael's past decade, told through the critical themes of his life: work, politics, faith, and family. The book is a journey of self-discovery and reinvention, and a testament to the consolations that protect him from the ravages of Parkinson's. With the humor and wit that captivated fans in his first book, Lucky Man, Michael describes how he became a happier, more satisfied person by recognizing the gifts of everyday life.

    Gerald says: "Great listen and very inspirational."

    This book was amazing. Michael J. Fox's narration is wonderful and I was only sad that this book is abridged. I would love to see both of his autobiographical books offered in an unabridged version.
