Rudolfs Krieg ist die Geschichte eines Soldaten der Panzertruppe, welcher vom Richtschützen bis zum Ersatz Kommandanten aufgestiegen ist. In den Jahren an der Ostfront fand er Kameraden und Freunde, sah Tod und Verderben und blieb dabei trotzdem ein Mensch. Er erzählt seine Geschichte, durchzogen von Erfolgen und Verlusten, von Siegen und Niederlagen. Familie und Heimat bestimmen seine Sichtweise sowie auch Freundschaften unter den Soldaten. Aus diese Sicht hat noch keine über den Panzerkrieg im zweiten Weltkrieg berichtet.

Story
On the 14th of August 1941, a Polish monk named Maximilian Maria Kolbe was murdered in Auschwitz. Kolbe's life had been remarkable. Fiercely intelligent and driven, he founded a movement of Catholicism and spent several years in Nagasaki, ministering to the 'hidden Christians' who had emerged after centuries of oppression. A Polish nationalist as well as a monk, he gave sanctuary to fleeing refugees and his death was no less remarkable: he volunteered to die, saving the life of a fellow prisoner. It was an act that profoundly transformed the lives of two Japanese men.

Story
After returning home from Iraq, I thought the battle was over, but little did I know, it was just beginning. As you hear about all the success and happiness achieved as a Marine, husband, and father, we will explore some of the darkest, most hopeless, and toughest battles I have ever fought with PTSD, addictions, homelessness, and divorce. God's love and grace made what seemed impossible possible. But "Miracles on a Rooftop" is not just a tale of combat and chaos. It is also a story of love, family, and the unwavering bond that sustains us through the darkest of times.

Story
"On Guerrilla Warfare" by Mao Tse Tung is a foundational text that elaborates on the strategies and philosophies behind guerrilla warfare, authored by the revolutionary leader during the tumultuous period of the Chinese Civil War and the Japanese invasion of China in the 20th century. Mao's work is not just a military manual but a profound treatise on the application of guerrilla tactics as a form of irregular warfare by a smaller, mobile force against a larger, more conventionally equipped enemy.

The samurai way of life is guided by three core values - loyalty, honor, and respect. These principles are more than just words; they are the basis of a strict code of conduct that governs every aspect of a samurai's life. Loyalty is the foundation of the samurai's relationship with their lord. It is not just blind obedience but an unwavering sense of duty and honor that compels them to protect their lord at all costs.

Story
Osamah Khalil argues that the militarization of US domestic and foreign affairs was the product of America's failure in Vietnam. Unsettled by their inability to prevail in Southeast Asia, US leaders increasingly came to see a host of problems as immune to political solutions. Rather, crime, drugs, and terrorism were enemies spawned in "badlands"—whether the Middle East or stateside inner cities. Characterized as sites of endemic violence, badlands lay beyond the pale of civilization, their ostensibly racially and culturally alien inhabitants best handled by force.

How to Start a War is unlike any audiobook you’ve ever listened to. Adapted from the popular podcast miniseries of the same name, Michael Trapani immerses listeners in the dramatic events that led to the crime of the century – World War II and the Holocaust – documenting the actions of the criminals who carried it out. Listeners will feel like they are in the room as some of history’s most villainous characters plot to overthrow democracy, impose tyranny, and outmaneuver those who had the power to stop them.
