Histoire
Here for the first time, in rich human, political, and scientific detail, is the complete story of how the bomb was developed, from the turn-of-the-century discovery of the vast energy locked inside the atom to the dropping of the first bombs on Japan. Few great discoveries have evolved so swiftly - or have been so misunderstood. From the theoretical discussions of nuclear energy to the bright glare of Trinity, there was a span of hardly more than 25 years.

Histoire
Robert Oppenheimer was among the most brilliant and divisive of men. As head of the Los Alamos Laboratory, he oversaw the successful effort to beat the Nazis in the race to develop the first atomic bomb – a breakthrough that was to have eternal ramifications for mankind and that made Oppenheimer the “Father of the Atomic Bomb.” But with his actions leading up to that great achievement, he also set himself on a dangerous collision course with Senator Joseph McCarthy and his witch-hunters. In Robert Oppenheimer: A Life Inside the Center, Ray Monk, author of peerless biographies of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Bertrand Russell, goes deeper than any previous biographer in the quest to solve the enigma of Oppenheimer’s motivations and his complex personality.

Histoire
The Red Army had much to avenge when it finally reached the frontiers of the Third Reich in January 1945. Frenzied by their terrible experiences with Wehrmacht and SS brutality, they wreaked havoc - tanks crushing refugee columns, mass rape, pillage, and unimaginable destruction. Hundreds of thousands of women and children froze to death or were massacred; more than seven million fled westward from the fury of the Red Army. It was the most terrifying example of fire and sword ever known.

On January 28, 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His Majesty’s Ship the Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While the Wager had been chasing a Spanish treasure-filled galleon known as “the prize of all the oceans,” it had wrecked on a desolate island off the coast of Patagonia.

Timothy McVeigh wanted to start a movement. Speaking to his lawyers days after the Oklahoma City bombing, the Gulf War veteran expressed no regrets: killing 168 people was his patriotic duty. New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin traces the dramatic history and profound legacy of Timothy McVeigh, who once declared, “I believe there is an army out there, ready to rise up, even though I never found it.” But that doesn’t mean his army wasn’t there. With news-breaking reportage, Toobin details how McVeigh’s principles and tactics have flourished in the decades since his death in 2001.

This is the story of the rise to national power of a desperately poor young man from the Texas Hill Country. The Path to Power reveals in extraordinary detail the genesis of the almost superhuman drive, energy, and ambition that set LBJ apart. It follows him from the Hill Country to New Deal Washington, from his boyhood through the years of the Depression to his debut as Congressman, his heartbreaking defeat in his first race for the Senate, and his attainment, nonetheless, at age 31, of the national power for which he hungered.

This Pulitzer Prize-winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author’s words, "a factual saga of people caught up in the flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened - muddled, ennobling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox."

Histoire
Milton Friedman was, alongside John Maynard Keynes, the most influential economist of the twentieth century. His work was instrumental in the turn toward free markets that defined the 1980s, and his full-throated defenses of capitalism and freedom resonated with audiences around the world. It’s no wonder the last decades of the twentieth century have been called “the Age of Friedman”—or that analysts have sought to hold him responsible for both the rising prosperity and the social ills of recent times. Historian Jennifer Burns tells Friedman’s extraordinary story with the nuance it deserves.

One of today's premier biographers, Jean Edward Smith, has written a modern, comprehensive, indeed ultimate book on the epic life of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This is a portrait painted in broad strokes and fine details. We see how Roosevelt's restless energy, fierce intellect, personal magnetism, and ability to project effortless grace permitted him to master countless challenges throughout his life. Smith recounts FDR's personal battles and also tackles head-on and in depth the numerous failures and miscues of Roosevelt's political career.

Spies is the history of the secret war that Russia and the West have been waging for a century. Espionage, sabotage, and subversion were the Kremlin’s means to equalize the imbalance of resources between the East and West before, during, and after the Cold War. There was nothing “unprecedented” about Russian meddling in the 2016 US presidential election. It was simply business as usual, new means used for old ends.

Histoire
Among the conflicts that convulsed Europe during the nineteenth century, none was more startling and consequential than the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. Deliberately engineered by Prussian chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the war succeeded in shattering French supremacy, deposing Napoleon III, and uniting a new German Empire. But it also produced brutal military innovations and a precarious new imbalance of power that together set the stage for the devastating world wars of the next century. In Bismarck’s War, historian Rachel Chrastil chronicles events on the battlefield in full.

Description
PULITZER PRIZE WINNER • The definitive biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer, one of the iconic figures of the twentieth century, a brilliant physicist who led the effort to build the atomic bomb for his country in a time of war, and who later found himself confronting the moral consequences of scientific progress.
THE INSPIRATION FOR THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE OPPENHEIMER
J. Robert Oppenheimer is one of the iconic figures of the twentieth century, a brilliant physicist who led the effort to build the atomic bomb for his country in a time of war and who later found himself confronting the moral consequences of scientific progress.
When he proposed international controls over atomic materials, opposed the development of the hydrogen bomb, and criticized plans for a nuclear war, his ideas were anathema to powerful advocates of a massive nuclear buildup during the anti-Communist hysteria of the early 1950s. They declared that Oppenheimer could not be trusted with America’s nuclear secrets.
In this magisterial biography twenty-five years in the making, which won the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for biography, the authors capture Oppenheimer’s life and times, from his early career to his central role in the Cold War.

Excellent book, poor sound editing
Both the book and the narration are excellent, but almost every line sounds like it was recorded on a different day from the last. This results in annoyingly inconsistent volume from line to line.

Audio inconsistencies really take away from this.
Great story. The Author is sympathetic to Oppy but does not pull punches on character flaws, peoples opinions of him, and the effect on his personal life. If you are looking for information on the Manhattan Project look elsewhere first. This is the biography of a man and knowledge of the historical events is a critical frame of reference but not the intent of the book.
Blackstone Audio needs to re-record this in its entirety. As I listened to this I wondered if they didn't initially record an abridged version and then, at the very last minute, ask the voice actor to record the omitted lines at home on his computer. I can't stress enough how jarring the differences are in the audio and voice acting quality between what I assumed to be the initial reading and the edits. The narrator himself on the base recording has done a fine job. Engaging and lively reading. The edits and corrections vary wildly in quality. There are times when name pronunciations have clearly been re-recorded outside of a studio and the single word edited in. I have several Blackstone Audio recordings in my library and this is the first time I've been able to notice edits and corrections. Very strange that this is still available in the condition it is in.

A profound and moving book
Superb! This book is large, but it never feels long. The title actually captures all of it, "triumph and tragedy". Mr. Oppenheimer's patriotism and competence in developing The Bomb, combined with his deep regret that it was ever used, all comes shining through. The travesty of his trials in the McCarthy era, with his enemies searching for Communist sympathizers, is epic. The family dramas are heart-wrenching. One of the best biographies I have ever read.

Alternate vantage point of mid 20th century histor
It is a remarkable account of the time if not a bit slow and repetitive. I love a good historical biography. It is a bit jarring how more it jumps around with asides in different time, making hard to keep track of the timeline.

Great Book. Criminally Bad Sound Quality
Do yourself a favor.. buy the text version. Historian/Biographers Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherman were correctly awarded the Pulitzer Prize for this outstanding meticulously accurate biography of a genuinely fascinating historical figure. The authors follow a rigidly strict chronological structure (which often inteferes with efforts at interpretation), but incorporate perceptive observations & insightful conclusions - backed up by excerpts from interviews with colleagues/friends/rivals/lovers - yielding a solid understanding of the man's strengths and weaknesses.
Now for presentation: Despite impressions you may get from reviews, the narration performance by Jeff Cummings, himself, is actually quite commendable. His professional diction, timbre, pacing, and cadence are matched with a remarkably interested tone (given the length of the book and the relatively dry subject matter - including some cursory technical summaries of physics/mathematics principles, for example). Yes, Cummings takes injudicious deep breaths on occasion, but the overall reading is genuinely praiseworthy.
Unfortunately, Blackstone Audio Inc. sound engineers evidently don't even *try* to soundmatch re-recorded & spliced segments, sentences, and even single words. The lazily constructed audiobook consequently sounds "thrown together". This product either needs a serious remaster or another attempt at recording the book altogether (i.e., scrap this one).
I must confess that I have not seen the Christopher Nolan film based on this book.. but if it's faithful to it, it must be a great movie. Altogether, this book is likely too long - but rarely gets boring. It is an edifying profile of a near-legend in 20th-Century Physics/Academia & an exemplary AntiCommunist Show-Trial target. You absolutely should read this book.
Sadly, the unforgivably bad production values render this recording of it a mere 6.5 stars out of 10. As a 'Plus' option, it's serviceable, I suppose.. but spend your Credit on something else should they ask for one.

The greatest period piece surrounding the Atomic bomb
Dislikes: Too over detailed in non trivial topics and people.
Likes: Overall characterization of Robert Oppenheimer surrounding his life and the era piece on atomic warfare. Tensions between soviet Russia and America and the Mcarthy period within history.
Overall a classic must read
