Story
Was Giacomo Casanova one of the most prolific lovers in history? Casanova’s description of himself suggests a hero, a lover, a charmer, an intellectual genius, and a man of intense creativity who was able to turn every adversity into a triumph. Yet equally one modern perspective views as an amoral misogynist, a rapist, and sexual predator driven by his selfish desires, a chancer who got lucky more times than he deserved.

Cook, an 18th-century explorer, lived during a time when humankind was yet naive and inexperienced in terms of understanding their environment. His legacy is quite astounding, given the fact that mankind had only begun to develop instrumentation. The people from Europe had never before seen Hawaii, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica, nor crossed the Antarctic circle.

A brilliant showman deeply interested in human psychology, his life and work reflect it and kept many interested in his magic acts.

Thomas Jefferson was one of the men who helped to bring the United States into being, and he shepherded the country through some of the most dynamic political years in its history. It is possible that without his brilliance, the fledgling democracy, the first in the world since the end of Ancient Greece, may not have survived its first few trials by fire.

Story
If 1942 was a crossroads, then 1943 was the point of no return. This year marked the true turning point of the war. It was in this year that the Axis forces were ejected from North Africa and Fascist Italy was utterly defeated, only to be propped back up as a puppet state of Nazi Germany. Germany itself was sent running from Russia, and Japan was dealt severe losses in the Pacific. The emboldened Allies became committed to forcing the complete and unconditional surrender of Axis forces everywhere. This audiobook explores all of the nuances of 1943 in full.

Story
We keep in our mind for some reason as we grow and get older that George Washington wore false wooden teeth and that is why you never see a picture of him smiling. The explanation sounds good when you are a child, and at that time you can’t refute that story. In this version, you will find things about George Washington that might surprise you and that you did not know before you listen to this audiobook. You will find out that he was the type of man that tried to lay things out in such a way as to make his opponent look bad or if need be, to bend the truth if necessary.

Alexander Hamilton started his life in the British West Indies.
