Since its publication in 1960, William L. Shirer’s monumental study of Hitler’s German empire has been widely acclaimed as the definitive record of the 20th century’s blackest hours. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich offers an unparalleled and thrillingly told examination of how Adolf Hitler nearly succeeded in conquering the world. With millions of copies in print around the globe, it has attained the status of a vital and enduring classic.

Anne Frank, it has been said, gave a face and a name to the horror of the Holocaust. This is her story. It relates how Anne, her family, and their friends hid in secret rooms - "the Annex" - in an Amsterdam warehouse for 25 months. Anne, just 13 when the family moved in and only 15 when the Gestapo at last broke down the doors of her secret world, found hope where there was only fear and the first blush of love when outside and all around there washed a sea of hate.

Brought to you by Penguin. It has never been more important to understand the extraordinarily complex and tightly meshed history, geography, culture and politics of the European continent. As confidence in the post-war world order led by America and policed by NATO is shaken, as the US Trump...

In Wilderlands, archaeologist Eloise Kane unearths 12,000 years of our changing relationship with and influence on the landscape. Through prehistory, Roman occupation, the Middle Ages and beyond, we see the unfamiliar beasts of our old wild make way for species such as brown hare and fallow deer, now romanticised as eternal symbols of the British countryside, but introduced much later than we might think. Places free from our influence haven't existed for a very long time. But Eloise Kane invites us to rethink our definition of the wild - not as separate from us.

In der Familie kursieren wunderliche Geschichten: Großvater war für die olympischen Spiele 1936 nominiert. Er hat Tito gejagt. Und war mit Widerständlern befreundet. Im Institut für Zeitgeschichte stößt die Juristin Dagmar Knigge auf ein Foto, das ihren Opa beim Handschlag mit Hitler zeigt. Nun will sie es genau wissen: Wer war Hans-Joachim Knigge? Hat er für die SS gemordet? Vier Jahre wertet sie Akten aus Deutschland, Moskau, Washington und Riga aus. Das Ergebnis bleibt ambivalent: ein Puzzle aus widersprüchlichen Indizien, Vertuschung und einer privaten Tragödie.

Before medical schools. Before clinical science. There were sanctuaries. Across the hills of ancient Greece, the sick traveled to quiet marble precincts dedicated to Asclepius — god of healing, son of Apollo, student of a centaur, and himself a figure both mortal and divine. They came not only for remedies, but for dreams.

Nazi Germany didn’t start with tanks, camps, or war. It began with political chaos, inflation, and a nation hunting “enemies within.” Hitler was voted in, welcomed, and normalized long before dictatorship was obvious. He promised to make Germany “great” again. If you’ve ever wondered why millions backed Hitler, why people watched Jewish neighbors disappear and stayed silent, why propaganda and strongman politics keep returning, or how a democracy can die quietly through fear, division, and a leader promising to fix everything, this audiobook tells the story clearly from start to finish.

Discover the remarkable life of Isabella I of Castile... Isabella I of Castile was one of the most pivotal monarchs in history. For some, such words might ring of hyperbole, but for Isabella, it is simply the truth. Her reign didn't just shape Spain—it reshaped the world. Ascending to power during Spain's final push to reclaim the Iberian Peninsula, Isabella completed the centuries-long Reconquista and unified a fractured kingdom. She accomplished this in an era when women rarely wielded sovereign power.

Germany lost twice. Then it did something rare. It learned. This book tells the story of a nation that burned down its own future, twice, and then chose to remember. From the rise of the Iron Chancellor to the ashes of Berlin, Blitzkrieg to the Berlin Wall, and Hitler to Merkel, Germany’s story is not one of endless conquest. It’s a story of collapse, reckoning, and slow, deliberate reconstruction. Through war, guilt, genius, division, and reinvention, Germany became something almost impossible: a world power that leads quietly. A country that doesn’t hide from its ghosts.

La España austera es un ameno acercamiento a la vida cotidiana de los años que van de 1952 a 1975: desde la vivienda, la alimentación, la higiene, la vestimenta y su extenuante aprovechamiento, hasta las distintas formas de ocio y descanso (vacaciones, fútbol, televisión, cine, fiestas y celebraciones) pasando por la asfixiante moral, la enseñanza, el humor o el noviazgo y matrimonio de los españoles.

In The Cultural Tutor’s Grand Tour, the ephemera of the everyday opens up to reveal a world of high art and low cunning - where a love affair can trigger a World War, a lamp-post can birth a cathedral, and a cup of coffee can take you on a journey of a thousand years. In the 18th Century, young English gentlemen would embark on Grand Tours - educational journeys to foreign climes, absorbing the sights, sounds and stories that defined them. But we get it - you’re busy. These days, all you need to see the world is a pair of headphones.
