Growing up impoverished and shuttled between different households, it seemed life was bound to take a certain path for Eddie Chuculate. Despite the challenges he faced, his upbringing was rich with love and bountiful lessons from his Creek and Cherokee heritage, deep-rooted traditions he embraced even as he learned to live within the culture of white, small-town America that dominated his migratory childhood.

Cosa provava Cristoforo Colombo il giorno in cui partì per andare oltre l’orizzonte? Cosa significava per Dante intraprendere un incredibile viaggio all’Inferno? Quando Spartaco decise di spezzare le catene che lo tenevano prigioniero? In quale modo San Francesco riuscì a convincere il Papa che non avrebbe distrutto ma salvato la cristianità? Dodici giornate memorabili, dodici eventi, dalla scoperta dell’America alla disfatta di Caporetto, dal processo di Artemisia Gentileschi alla strage di Capaci, che hanno trasformato l’Italia e il mondo intero.

Gary Paulsen takes listeners along on his maiden voyage, proving that ignorance can be bliss. Also really stupid and incredibly dangerous. He tells of boats that owned him, good, bad, and beloved, and how they got him through terrifying storms that he survived by sheer luck. His spare prose conjures up shark surprises and killer waves as well as moonlight on the sea, and makes listeners feel what it’s like to sail under the stars or to lie at anchor in a tropical lagoon where dolphins leap, bathed in silver.

On April 29, 1992, following the acquittal of four police officers charged with the beating and arrest of Rodney King and the earlier killing of teenager Latasha Harlins, the city of Los Angeles erupted in violence. Many of these events were centered on the city’s Koreatown, where tensions between the Black and Korean American communities had simmered for years, fueled by economic challenges and redlining and enflamed by sensationalized and racist media.

Hoover may have given America the security it wanted, but the secrets he knew gave him—and the Bureau—all the power he wanted.
