  • Biographical Memoir of John Wesley Powell, 1834-1902 by William Morris Davis ~ Full Audiobook
    Jun 19 2025
    Biographical Memoir of John Wesley Powell, 1834-1902 by William Morris Davis audiobook. Imagine yourself swept into the heart of 19th-century America, paddling through the untamed rapids of the Colorado River, shoulder-to-shoulder with a Civil War–scarred cavalry officer turned intrepid geologist whose one-armed grip on his paddle symbolized both the resilience of the human spirit and the unquenchable thirst for discovery. In this masterful Biographical Memoir of John Wesley Powell, 1834–1902, by William Morris Davis, you’ll hear the crackle of campfires under star-filled skies, sense the thunder of cataracts just beyond reach, and follow every daring cartographic stroke as Powell maps the shifting contours of the American West for the first time. Davis’s prose, rich with scientific insight and brimming with the excitement of raw exploration, breathes life into Powell’s extraordinary achievements—his groundbreaking surveys for the US Geological Survey, his respectful encounters with indigenous peoples, and his visionary advocacy for water management that echoes through our own climate-challenged era. The audiobook’s narrator carries you effortlessly from the dusty halls of Harvard to the echoing caverns of the Grand Canyon, transforming every turn of phrase into an invitation to witness history. Press play, and let John Wesley Powell’s epic journey redefine your sense of adventure, courage, and the boundless possibilities of the American landscape. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Troubled Man's Medicine by William Hugh audiobook. Imagine settling into your headphones and instantly being swept into the shadowy corridors of a mind on the brink, where every whispered confession and pounding heartbeat feels as real as your own—this is the spellbinding promise of The Troubled Man’s Medicine by William Hugh in its audiobook form. From the first echo of the narrator’s resonant timbre, you’ll be drawn into a world where medicine becomes both salvation and curse, where a single vial holds the power to unlock terrifying memories and hidden truths long buried in the darkest recesses of one man’s soul. The story unfolds in haunting clarity: a man, haunted by guilt and desperate for relief, stumbles upon a mysterious remedy rumored to banish fear forever, only to discover that healing comes at a price more harrowing than the pain it purports to cure.

I've now listened to several of these 800+ (and growing) episodes/books, and sampled many more. They are read well, for the most part, and cover a broad range of topics, authors and time periods. There are both fiction and non-fiction, children's, YA and adult titles. I assume all are in the public domain, whether by lapsed or expired copyright. A number of the series' titles are otherwise unavailable for free through Audible, but the edition for sale on Audible will likely be a better reading or translation. I haven't checked, but some of the more obsure titles are likely not available at all. Some have attributions to Librivox, but a variety of sources seem to be drawn from. The biggest drawback, due to the podcast/episode structure of the collection, is that you can't search by title or author, only by upload date. You must load page after page until you find (or don't find) a title or author you're hoping is in the collection. But what do you want for FREE? There are both diamonds and lumps of coal in this mine. You just have to keep digging until you find your diamonds.
