Why we think it’s a great listen: You thought he was a stodgy scientist with funny hair, but Isaacson and Hermann reveal an eloquent, intense, and selfless human being who not only shaped science with his theories, but politics and world events in the 20th century as well. Based on the newly released personal letters of Albert Einstein, Walter Isaacson explores how an imaginative, impertinent patent clerk became the mind reader of the creator of the cosmos.

Historia
In the years around 1870, the concept of building a great bridge to span the East River between the cities of Manhattan and Brooklyn required a vision and determination comparable to that which went into the building of the pyramids. Throughout the fourteen years of the bridge's construction, the odds against its successful completion seemed staggering. Bodies were crushed and broken, lives were lost, political empires fell, and surges of public emotion constantly threatened the project.

Historia
Goodwin describes the broken friendship between Teddy Roosevelt and his chosen successor, William Howard Taft. With the help of the "muckraking" press, Roosevelt had wielded the Bully Pulpit to challenge and triumph over abusive monopolies, political bosses, and corrupting money brokers. Roosevelt led a revolution that he bequeathed to Taft only to see it compromised as Taft surrendered to money men and big business. The rupture led Roosevelt to run against Taft for president, an ultimately futile race that gave power away to the Democrats.

Editor's Pick
"Herrmann’s performance makes this one impossible to turn off."
"'Unbelievable' is a common reaction to Unbroken, Laura Hillenbrand’s true story of the life of Louis Zamperini, whose journey home after being shot down in the Pacific theater of World War II is filled with one more seemingly impossible circumstance after another. Narrator Edward Herrmann brings gravitas and empathy in equal measure, from Louis’s time as a track star to his survival in a life raft, and from his time spent in a prison camp to his eventual journey home. Louis’s ingenuity and strength of character is a true inspiration, and Herrmann’s performance makes this one impossible to turn off."
