The King and the Catholics: The Fight for Rights 1829 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 689min

The story of Catholic Emancipation begins with the Anti-Catholic Gordon Riots in 1780, fuelled by a reduction in Penal Laws against Catholics harking back to the 16th century. Fifty years later, the passing of the Emancipation Bill was hailed as a 'bloodless revolution'.Yet, had the Irish Catholics been a 'millstone', or were they the prime movers? Antonia Fraser brings colour and humour to this vivid drama with its huge cast of characters, including George III, the Prince of Wales, Lady Conyngham, Lord Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, 'roaring' Lord Winchilsea and the heroic Daniel O'Connell. Expertly written and deftly argued, The King and Catholics stands as a distant mirror of our times, reflecting the political issues arising from religious intolerance. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Shiralee , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 542min

A true Australian classic, warmly welcomed into the Bolinda Classics range. A shiralee is a swag, a burden, a bloody millstone - and that's what four-year-old Buster is to her father, Macauley. He takes the child on the road with him to spite his wife, but months pass and still no word comes to ask for the little girl back.Strangers to each other at first, father and daughter drift aimlessly through the dusty towns of Australia, sleeping rough and relying on odd jobs for food and money. Buster's resilience and trust slowly erode Macauley's resentment, and when he's finally able to get rid of her, he realises he can't let his shiralee go. In evocative prose that vividly conjures images of rural Australia, The Shiralee reveals an understanding of the paradoxical nature of the burdens we carry and creates a moving portrait of fatherhood, told with gruff humour and a gentle pathos. ungekürzt.

Hannah's Mail Order Husband: Montana Prairie Brides, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 195min

In book three of the Montana Prairie Brides series, the romance deepens between Hannah and her new husband, Peter Cummings. Hannah isn't happy with her mail-order husband. She just buried her first husband after a battle with influenza, and she got a new husband to help her keep her ranch going. But her new husband, Peter, isn't cut out for the job at all. He's weak, and he's sick. Can he ever be more than a millstone around Hannah's neck? It's bad enough that she can't enjoy the intimacy of her good friends, Katie Matthis and Josie Eaton, the way she used to. Why does Hannah feel so guilty about her situation that she won't even confide in her dearest friends? They would help her if they only knew what's bothering her. But Hannah can't bring herself to share her burden with anyone. Peter's illness puts a strain on her she can hardly bear. Keeping her feelings and worries bottled up only makes them more unbearable by the day. Hannah would love to end this ill-fated marriage. She even plans how to do it. Peter misrepresented himself when they corresponded by mail about getting married, so Hannah may have grounds to send him packing. The only problem is she's starting to love him. Before she makes the biggest mistake of her life, Peter will show her he's not ready to roll over and die without winning her love for good. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lawrence D.
