In seinem brillanten neuen Hörbuch nimmt Bestsellerautor Christopher Clark uns mit auf eine Zeitreise ins frühe 19. Jahrhundert und in eine Welt voller Intrigen und Verrat, die zwei lutherischen Predigern in Königsberg zum Verhängnis wurde: Königsberg, die ehemalige Hauptstadt der preußischen Provinz Ostpreußen, galt schon immer als eher verschlafener Ort, bekannt vor allem als einstige Residenz von Immanuel Kant. Doch in den späten 1830er-Jahren war das Städtchen plötzlich in aller Munde – allerdings aus den falschen Gründen.

Cantares gallegos, obra publicada en 1863 e que marca a data do Día das Letras Galegas, é un reflexo da sociedade rural na que viviu Rosalía de Castro. Xa o prólogo contén unha alegación reivindicativa de Galicia e da súa xente. Ao mesmo tempo, a autora pretende defender e dignificar a lingua galega. Un conxunto de poemas costumistas, aínda que tamén amorosos, intimistas e sociais que significan o renacemento da literatura galega.

The Maginot Line was a marvel of 1930s engineering. The huge forts, up to eighty meters underground, contained hospitals, modern kitchens, telephone exchanges, and even electric trains. Kilometers of underground galleries led to casements hidden in the terrain, and turrets that rose from the ground to fire upon the enemy. The fortifications were invulnerable to the heaviest artillery and to chemical warfare. Despite this extensive preparation, France fell to Germany in a little under six weeks.

In 1786, France's ancien régime was functioning as usual. Its alliance with the victorious American colonies had restored its diplomatic prestige, the economy seemed to be flourishing, and internal politics seemed quiet. But just a few short years later, the dynasty which had ruled France for over 800 years was swept away. What happened to cause such devastating change to the long-established political structure?

Between 1941 and 1944, the British army contributed relatively little to World War II. On the unremittingly bloody Eastern Front, no Russian or German soldier had experienced the luxury of having four years to prepare and train for a resumption of the European continental campaign. But on D-Day—June 6, 1944—the lives of British soldiers changed. Thirty-five thousand infantrymen, airmen, and special service operatives were sent headfirst into the whitest heat of war, almost overnight.
