Title: Mark Zuckerberg: The Face Behind Facebook Author: Daniel Alef Narrator: Baron Ron Herron Format: Unabridged Length: 47 mins Language: English Release date: 12-19-14 Publisher: Meta4 Press Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Mark Zuckerberg, the 28-year-old founder of Facebook, is not only the youngest self-made billionaire in history, he was worth $19.1 billion right after Facebook's initial public offering. Although his meteoric rise had lost some of its luster after the IPO, he is now considered by many to be one of the most influential persons in the information age. His impact on American culture is virtually unprecedented. And the company he controls so carefully, Facebook, has become a major social, commercial, and advertising international force. The 2010 film, Social Network did not portray him in the kindest light, but was it a work of fact or fiction? Separating fiction from fact, award-winning author Daniel Alef, tells the true story of Zuckerberg's meteoric rise and his indelible mark on the evolution of American culture through social networking and now advertising. The curly-haired wunderkind rubs elbows with Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Rupert Murdoch, Donald Graham, and other prominent players in today's business, technological, and media world and is an emerging philanthropist. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Daniel Alef) Fri, 19 Dec 2014 02:54:57 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Mark-Zuckerberg-The-Face-Behind-Facebook-Audiobook/B00R6PU3E0 thebookvoice.com 00:47:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Terrible Book Do Not Buy Would you try another book from Daniel Alef and/or Baron Ron Herron? No What was most disappointing about Daniel Alefs story? This was a collection of facts he found online. It really tells nothing about Mark Zuckerberg. Its like listing someone read a timeline. Very boring and non informative. How could the performance have been better? Actually do interviews with Mark Z. Do not just search the internet and write what you find. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Bored Any additional comments? Really a waste of time and money. I hope others do not watch this book. Its a great subject manner but covered very poorly. I hope someone else coverts this person and writes a much better book like was written for Steve Jobs. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Savage-Way-Audiobook/B00BW4U9TK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A fascinating story of an extraordinary person. I found The Savage Way captivating. It took me across the globe to lesser known regions and countries in Africa and the Middle East from the early sixties onward, to the inner circle of board rooms in Corporate America, to the renowned scenes of international conferences of world leaders, to Italy, to India and beyond. It appears that in life, as in sailing, the author wisely uses his wind vane to maneuver, yet, closely follows his compass to guide him in the right direction, and never loses his inner voice, his calling and his identity. The book tells a story of a man who skillfully combines his own story, his family, with that of the business challenges he undertakes, openly discusses setbacks or failures, yet takes us with him to the heights of success. A fascinating story of an extraordinary person. I have never seen one person so in love with themselves This book was awful. I have never seen one person so in love with themselves. Could have been motivational if he had taken the focus off of making himself look good. It seems that that book was his chance for him to absolve himself of involvement in Enron. Great book! People from all walks of life would enjoy and learn from this consolidated view of Frank Savage's life experiences. His never give up attitude and positive view of the world are uplifting. The book left me feeling that there were many more interesting anectdotes to be shared and insights to gain from this extraordinary individual. Review This book is a candid picture of a life from a meager beginning to a life of prosperity and purpose. Savage Way gives young people hope that if you work hard, have integrity, follow your passion, and not let disappointments (failures) stop or deter you, you can achieve heights beyond your imagination. Very Nice Book. Outstanding read all around. Frank is definitely a role model and a very successful African American male and I enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. Kudos to Frank and the success he's gained in business and sailing! My man. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Unusual-People-Do-Things-Differently-Audiobook/B009R6PONG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Gripping and mind boggling This book is presented in four parts: a history of the Murdoch empire and the man himself; a history and character study of his three children by his second wife (who are the ones most involved in or around his business); a history of the illegal activities (such as phone hacking and corruption) by parts of the Murdoch press; and a description of the fallout of the illegal activities for the corporation and the Murdochs themselves. This part also deals with who might run what when Rupert is no longer in charge. While the whole book is good for me the best part by far was part III which described the illegal activities and the attempted cover up. Some of this was gripping and I had to force myself to stop listening just so I could get some sleep before work the next day! The callousness and arrogance was mind boggling at times. Parts I and II were also interesting especially reading about the capabilities and characters of his children. I've been a fan of Paul Barry ever since reading The Rise and Rise of Kerry Packer and have also enjoyed his stints on Media Watch.This book another great addition to his work and is well worth your money. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Philadelphia-Freedom-Audiobook/B003ADIVXW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Great Stories, Great Creativity This is an amazing collection of true stories about a young lawyer seeking justice. Lots of lawyer books are war stories which feature the lawyer's own version of their brilliant ideas and actions. This one is different. The stories themselves are entertaining, but more than that they show a person trying to find their way in the maze of the legal system. The result is a series of episodes showing how creativity in problem-solving in the legal system can unfold. Good read for people interested in stories, or people interested in law and justice, or people interested in how people face obstacles and overcome them. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Donald-Trump-Audiobook/B06VT88B2K Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

But how exactly did the shrewd business tycoon and the 45th US President get to where he is today? Donald Trump is one of the today's best examples of a success story. Driven, unrelenting, and focused, he seems to overcome even the most difficult business odds. Donald Trump was rumored to be a candidate for presidency long before he came into the scene this year. Indeed, in 1988, the famous talk-show host Oprah Winfrey asked Trump about his possible White House bid. At that time Trump said he probably wouldn't run, however, if he ran, he would win the race. The striking part is how he sounded so similar in that interview as compared to today. For example, his constant complaints about other countries "ripping" off the US and his opinions on the free-trade agreements have not changed at all. Trump, now the president of the United States, often makes a similar statement about Mexico, whose government he often accuses of sending criminals across the US border. Should you hate him or love him? For that, you need to learn who Donald Trump is and what are those life-changing experiences that made him the way he is.

Excellent, well-written book that will make anyone -- on either side of the partisan divide -- take a closer look and Think. The authors. and about twenty reporters whose reporting they openly utilize. have painted a portrait that is filled with new information and facts that are not generally known. Most of all, they bring Insight into the arena. It's easy to simply take a side that supports your already-formed opinion regardless of facts.

He truly was a man of industry, finding solutions where there were none apparent. What other book might you compare Henry J. Kaiser to and why? None, most other books only deal with Kaiser tangentially. His efforts in industry were instrumental to the success of the US in WWII, but little is said about the man behind the machine. How did the narrator detract from the book? It was read a little too quickly, and not much enthusiasm. If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? Henry Kaiser: A Man of Industry Any additional comments? Would like to know more about Henry J Kaiser. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Fit-to-Serve-Audiobook/B00BB0OMYS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Fit to Serve Subtitle: Reflections on a Secret Life, Private Struggle, and Public Battle to Become the First Openly Gay U.S. Ambassador Author: James C. Hormel, Erin Martin Narrator: Richard Waterhouse Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 02-08-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: This is the memoir of James C. Hormel - a man who grew up feeling different not only because his family owned the Hormel empire and lived in a 26 bedroom house in a small Midwest town, but because he was gay at a time when homosexuality was not discussed or accepted. Outwardly he tried to live up to the life his father wanted for him - he was a successful professional, had married a lovely woman, and had children - but as volatile changes in the late 1960s impeded on the American psyche, Hormel realized that he could not hide his true self forever. Hormel moved to New York City, became an antiwar activist, battled homophobia, lost dear friends to AIDS, and set out to become Americas first openly gay ambassador, a position he finally won during the Clinton administration. Today, Hormel continues to fight for LGBT equality and gay marriage rights. This is a passionate and inspiring true story of the determination for human equality and for attaining your own version of the American Dream - life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness without exception. Editorial Reviews: The life of an ambassador is likely to contain at least a few book-worthy features - excitement, political drama, access to international powerbrokers - and certainly the life of James C. Hormel has these in spades. But Ambassador Hormel is notable also for being the first openly gay U.S. ambassador, a fact that has added to his life challenges and triumphs recounted with insight and good humor in Fit to Serve: Reflections on a Secret Life, Private Struggle, and Public Battle to Become the First Openly Gay U. S. Ambassador. Narrator Richard Waterhouse, though much younger than Ambassador Hormel, brings an energy and a clarity to this autobiographical account of a life lived at times in secret, at times in conflict with itself, and ultimately with great integrity. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (James C.

Members Reviews: The Maybelline Prince The Maybelline Prince: Danne Montague King A mysterious fire and the carnage are irreparable. The site horrific and the end result would take the life of the home and the person who lived in it. As author, hairdresser and cosmetic king, Danne Montague-King relives that experience, describes what he saw and takes readers back to the beginning where life was complicated yet simple and one manâs passions are revealed. Imagine shopping with stars like Diana Ross and Jane Russell for their own personal wigs. The setting is Newport Beach in the 60âs an exciting time. Danne lived a life so many envied and would have loved. Living in the home of Maybelline heiress, Evelyn F. Williams. Walking directly into his shop changed the entire course of his life forever. Living with Evelyn as her friend, adopted nephew, companion and the one person she relied on and trusted, when she died in a strange fire, rumors flew and his reputation became tarnished and many thought that he was into drugs, associated with the mafia and unusual sex. This is an outstanding tribute to an amazing and wonderful woman that everyone will want to read. The Maybelline Prince is not just the story of Danne and Evelyn but the story of Maybelline itself, a roller rink, helping youngsters stay out of trouble and an era that was filled with excitement, drugs, the birth of my favorite music, rockânâroll and donât forget Woodstock. Evelyn Williams had her own style and personality. She was headstrong, vibrant and at times you might even say vulnerable to the whims of others. Creating a place where kids could skate, put on shows and express themselves she became quite an icon among the younger set. Living in Hot Springs, Arkansas both Evelyn and Danne took the town and the people by storm in their own flamboyant ways. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Edward-de-Bono-and-the-Mechanism-of-Mind-Short-Biography-Book-Reviews-Quotes-and-Comments-Great-Minds-Volume-5-Audiobook/B0777S2NW7 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Start Publishing Notes' summary, analysis, and review of Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal includes: Preview: Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal gives the audience a comprehensive look at the author's life as a businessman. It is divided into three sections. The first section offers a detailed look at a single Trump workweek, the second section lists the business principles to which Trump adheres, and the third section contains Trump's autobiographical reflections on his early life and most notable business ventures. Although there is some debate about who wrote the bulk of this book, there is no doubt that it channels Trump's boisterous, success-obsessed personality: both people and building projects are described either as winners or losers, and everything Trump-related is given a positive spin, even if he actually received intense media criticism and scrutiny for his actions. Trump's workday usually runs from nine to five. He wakes up around 6 a.m. to start reading all the local newspapers, then spends most of the day making calls or attending meetings. During the week summarized in the book, he is deeply involved with matters ranging from the reopening of the Wollman Skating Rink, which Trump built in a matter of months for a New York City government that had spent a decade struggling with the project, to possibly purchasing a controlling interest in the Holiday Inn corporation in order to gain access to their casinos. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Start Publishing Notes) Mon, 05 Jun 2017 06:33:45 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Summary-Analysis-and-Review-of-Donald-Trumps-The-Art-of-the-Deal-Audiobook/B072JMW5GM thebookvoice.com 00:30:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Don't bother What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Nothing. What do you think your next listen will be? Still searching for it. What didnt you like about Mike Giless performance? Basically this is waste of time. A silly interview that would add some value if you were back in the beginning of the 90's. There is nothing really relating to branding, just a quick summary of what is a blog, basic interactions with users, and benefits of the same. Type "what is a blog" on Goggle or check Wikipedia. Save yourself 1hour and a couple of dollars. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Mark White - Expanding Your Brand Through Blogging? I would not have published this audiobook/interview Any additional comments? That's it. Greatt book about blogging Enjoyed it very much and learnt what blogging is really about. I recommend this book to anyone that wants to know more about blogging. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Visionaries-Audiobook/B01KKL47DE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Interesting insight into the life of vintners in California, but told from the point of views of a privileged, wealthy, narcissistic, woman. Never the Same A glass of wine will never be the same for me after reading this book! I will be searching for all the delicious flavors and nuances that Joy Sterling and her family look for while turning their grapes into wine. Her wonderful and detailed descriptions show it is no easy task but takes much physical labor, creativity and attention to detail. It involves dealing with the stress of nature's moods as well as turning out fantastic meals for tons of people whether one is feeling like it or not -- all part of the business. And yet the land, lifestyle (and perks!) of living this life seem to amply repay Joy Sterling for all the hard work. I loved her tongue-in-cheek style when describing the events of her life: her father remarking on her not wanting to go to law school with the comment "I guess that means you won't be president" or she and her husband, Forrest, in evening dress, down under the table untying dusty boxes of wine glasses in which to serve their wine at a wine fair! I found this book delightful and informative and will read it again. This book hit home for me. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Perhaps the best thing is that I am from Sonoma County where most of the events take place. The descriptions of the towns, people and the ever present vineyards really struck home. The obvious joy that the author takes in her life and the wines her family makes permeates the book. She obviously lives a life different from the average person but seems to know it and appreciate all she has. Many local people are mentioned but almost always in a positive and entertaining way. The explanation of grape growing and wine crafting made me feel that even a non-wine drinker like myself could learn to appreciate the difference between good and bad wines. Lives of the Pretentious and Fermented Whining pretentious "special" child of insufferable ugly american francophiles, (names dropped here), fails utterly at journalism career, but goes home to write book (more names dropped here) supposedly about the life in a vineyard/winery. Between the descriptions of her cool clothes and wonderful parties she finds a little time to run to the chais to ask her wine maker husband basic questions about wine making, that she then inserts into her partylogue as if she knows which end of a corkscrew is up. For pure unadulterated masochism try reading this out loud, preferably to someone who loves you and has a black sense of humor. If an editor has ever seen this book, I would be highly surprised. Ditto Los Angeles Couldn't agree with Los Angeles more. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Walters-Perspective-Audiobook/B0189UL4XY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Walter's Perspective Subtitle: A Memoir of Fifty Years in Chicago TV News Author: Walter Jacobson Narrator: John Sipple Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 30 mins Language: English Release date: 11-23-15 Publisher: University Press Audiobooks Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Walter's Perspective provides a unique glimpse into the rough-and-tumble Chicago news business as seen through the eyes of one of its legendary players. From his first news job working as a legman to his later role as a news anchor and political commentator, Jacobson battled along the front lines of an industry undergoing dramatic changes. While it is ultimately Jacobson's story, a memoir of a long and distinguished (and sometimes highly controversial) career, it is also an insider's account of the inner workings of Chicago television news, including the ratings games, the process of defining news and choosing stories, the media's power and its failures, and the meddling by corporate and network executives. As a reporter, Jacobson was regularly contentious and confrontational. Yet it was this gutsy attitude that put him at the top of the news game, enabling him to get inside information on Chicago government and politics, and helped him become the first local television reporter to be granted a visa to visit Communist China. Jacobson recollects his interactions with Chicago mayors Richard J. and Richard M. Daley, Jane Byrne, Harold Washington, and Rahm Emanuel; recounts his coverage of such fascinating news stories as the violent 1968 Democratic National Convention and the execution of convicted mass murderer John Wayne Gacy; and recalls his reporting on and interviews with Louis Farrakhan, governors George Ryan and Rod Blagojevich, and Barack Obama.

This is a wonderful compendium of articles written about Harry Selfridge,a pioneer in the world of Department stores.The articles tell his story thru opinions of the day and the people who wrote them.Narrated by Lee Ann Howlett,the articles come to life as if they were written today.Very interesting! I was given a copy for an honest review from Audio Book Blast dot com. A great intro to Selfridge Would you consider the audio edition of Selected Articles on the Life and Career of Harry Gordon Selfridge to be better than the print version? I can't really compare the print to audio, but it was nice to have the articles read aloud. I think it would have taken me a lot longer to get through the print articles if I were reading them What did you like best about this story? I really enjoyed hearing about creation of the London store and the lead up to the WWI Which scene was your favorite? My favorite articles were the ones that quoted Selfridge's advice Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yeah I could have listened to it in one shot. I didn't, but I was curious about hearing the full story. Any additional comments? Lee Ann's voice fit the genre & time period very well. At times the sibilance could be distracting, but overall her narration was a contribution to making the articles written in the early 20th centruty come to life. I've had the Selfridge series from PBS sitting on my DVR forever, but after listening to this book I'm FINALLY going to sit down and watch it. Events that shaped modern retailing & advertising Disclosure: I received this audiobook from the editor/narrator in return for an honest review This fascinating book follows H.G. Selfridge's ascent from a low-level Marshall Fields employee in Chicago, to managing partner, to owner of Selfridges Department Stores in the U.K. While the establishment of Selfridges Department Store was heralded by at least one U.K. newspaper as "The American Invasion," Selfridge sought to ensure that his store never misled customers in order to make a sale and helped lead the way for equal employment by hiring women when men were called to serve in World War I and then pronouncing that, in many cases, women performed the jobs even more effectively than their male predecessors.

Members Reviews: Badly written and appallingly narrated How can the publishers allow cindy olson to narrate this. There is a mistake almost every sentence. I have read all the Enron books and this is by far the worst. Olsen is arrogant and focuses on the success of Enron over the years but forgets that it was done by cheating. Olsen preaches to us like a sermon with God as a central part in her story. She sees ken lay as blameless and gushes incessantly. Absolute waste of money and a huge disappointment. The book was bad enough but at least the publishers could have ensured that it was narrated by someone who didn't take breaths in between sentences, splutters throughout and have some varies e in vocal. The worst book I have read in a long time, it was dreadful https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Amazing-Entrepreneurs-Volume-1-Audiobook/B0055UD1D8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Newspaperman Subtitle: Inside the News Business at The Wall Street Journal Author: Warren Phillips Narrator: L. J. Ganser Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 09-16-11 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: When Warren Phillips was 11 years old, his father took him on a guided tour of the New York Daily News, where he got his first look at the frenzied yet surprisingly ordered and controlled world of newspaper publishing. He saw everything from the industrial printing presses churning out newspapers at astonishing speeds to reporters hunched over their typewriters, writing the very stories those presses would be producing within hours - or even minutes. Phillips was hooked. He knew exactly what he wanted to do with his life. Newspaperman tells the story of how an immigrant's shy son from Queens, New York, rose to the top of his industry, powered by little more than passion, brains, and hard work. Phillips began his career working as a copyboy for the New York Herald Tribune for 16 dollars a week... and ended it as publisher of The Wall Street Journal and CEO of its parent corporation, Dow Jones & Company. The life story of Warren Phillips is the story of the American newspaper business. Here, the details of his vast experience come together to create a broad picture of the industry, revealing how news is discovered, reported, edited, published, and disseminated. Sharing vivid tales of working as a reporter around the world and describing the many colorful characters he met along the way, Phillips provides a level of insight that only a leading figure in newspapering could offer. Newspaperman gives you an up-close look at one of the most influential people in the history of The Wall Street Journal and an unprecedented view of the business, from its rapid modernization during the post-World War II, cold war era to the early years of digital publishing and the rise of the Internet, which may mark the decline of the printed page forever. Phillips's entertaining, penetrating, and impressively detailed account is a must-listen for both devotees of America's most iconic business publication and anyone with an interest in how news is reported. Critic Reviews: "The author includes many anecdotes culled from his diaries, some very funny, which illustrate the variegated aspects of his life and the people who shared in it.... A well-rounded autobiography about the journalism industry and the people who shaped the news over the past 50 years." (Kirkus Reviews) "Phillips fell in love with newspapers when he was a boy. Hes still infatuated but he doesnt skip over his tough times or mistakes. Thats what makes Newspaperman such a telling guide to the newsroom and to the top office in the executive suite." (Lou Boccardi, former president and chief executive, Associated Press; former chairman, Pulitzer Prize Board) "This lovely book recounts the life of a wise, thoughtful, and admired newspaper editor and publisher. The tiny Wall Street Journal Warren Phillips joined grew up to be a giant. Newspaperman tells that story." (Donald E. Graham, chairman and chief executive, The Washington Post Company) bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Warren Phillips) Fri, 16 Sep 2011 07:49:19 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Newspaperman-Audiobook/B005MZ202O thebookvoice.com 10:17:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: To Pixar and Beyond Author: Lawrence Levy Narrator: Bronson Pinchot Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 09-14-17 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: One day in November 1994, Lawrence Levy received a phone call out of the blue from Steve Jobs, whom he'd never met, offering him a job running Pixar, a little-known company that had already lost Jobs $50 million. With Pixar's prospects looking bleak, it was with some trepidation that Levy accepted the position. After a few weeks he discovered that the situation was even worse than he'd imagined. Pixar's advertising division just about broke even, its graphics software had few customers, its short films didn't make any money and, on top of all that, Jobs was pushing to take the company public. Everything was riding on the studio's first feature film, codenamed Toy Story, and even then it would have to be one of the most successful animated features of all time.... Full of wisdom on bringing business and creativity together, and recounting the touching story of Levy's enduring friendship with Jobs, To Pixar and Beyond is a fascinating insider's account of one of Hollywood's greatest success stories. Critic Reviews: "This book, like Pixar's story, is truly remarkable." (E&T Magazine) "A magnifying glass held to the small print that is needed to make magic." (The Sunday Times) "A charming, upbeat tale...much like one of the studio's own animated features."

I dont normally write reviews unless something really moves me to do so. I have been a fan of Pixar ever since I saw Luxo Jnr featured on a Childrens animation show when I was about 8 years old, this was then followed by Tin Toy and then Knick Knack. These pictures I was seeing and the characters involved left a mark on me that I would never forget. When I found this audio book I was taken back to how I felt when I was a kid but at the same time very much in the present as both a business owner and techie. No matter whether I was listening as an adult or as the child in me this story fascinated me on all levels. Hearing how Woody, Buzz and all the rest of the Pixar cast went from a sketch to being alive and making us fall in love with them was an amazing tale. This book is beautifully balanced between business and pleasure and I cannot rate it enough. It is ok to dream and believe that anything is possible and this book proves that. Really interesting for toy story buffs As a big fan of toy story I found this interesting but thats about it. I didnt learn anything about business or life or much else to be honest. Just the story of toy story. Fascinating I am at an age when the original Toy Story was a film targeted at me and ice grown up watching and loving Pixar movies. I found this a fascinating insight and look back to how it all came to be with the possible exception of the last chapter or two which delves into spiritual enlightenment which isn't quite for me. I'd also say this story in itself would make an interesting movie in itself. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Chaos-to-Reinvention-Audiobook/B06VSPXHHK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Hard work, lots of help, and a little bit of luck seem to be the three main components, according to businessman Jerry Isenhour. Isenhour worked many different jobs from a young age, but nothing stuck for him. He realized that he wasn't meant to just be a cog in a machine. He wanted to create something for himself. With this new determination, Isenhour created a chimney-service business. He shares with listeners the secrets of starting a successful business and how he branched into two other thriving companies - a fireplace and outdoor living retail business and a manufacturing business. He was on his way to creating an empire. Although Isenhour's story shows his individual perseverance, he stresses the help and support he received from his friends and family. Then, the big crash of 2008 happened, and Isenhour suddenly lost everything. Like so many other Americans that year, he was left wondering how to pick up the pieces of his career. The adventure that follows displays Isenhour's resilience, and it shows that anyone can make the most of a second chance. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Jerry Isenhour) Tue, 14 Feb 2017 10:28:11 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Chaos-to-Reinvention-Audiobook/B06VSPXHHK thebookvoice.com 02:48:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: This is a MUST-READ book for every small business owner to read! I read this book cover-to-cover and couldnât put it down. There was so much that absolutely resonated with me since I too am a small business owner. This book is brutally honest. I know it couldnât have been easy writing about mistakes but he did this so that we could learn from his experiences. Itâs one thing to write about the good things in life. Itâs another thing entirely to write about mistakes you may have made or where the systems that were meant to protect us small business owners have let us down. I love the way the author incorporates parenting advice, not only in how his mother parented him but how he now parents his own children. He also incorporates life lessons, all of which has a lot to do with being a small business owner. More than anything, the book shows that no matter what happens to you, donât give up, because thereâs always a way to reinvent yourself. Much wisdom and inspiration here in this book! Excellent real world story that details how the world of finance turned upside down in 2008 and how hard working small business owners got caught up in the big banks and government quagmire. This book is inspiring as where some people may have just given up Mr. Isenhour makes a Rocky Balboa like come back. So much wisdom can be learned by reading and learning from people like this. I highly recommend it! this is an excellent look into the frailties of the business world A MUST READ!! this is an excellent look into the frailties of the business world. A well written personal story of the ups and downs and ups of building a business and how to move forward, Jerry shows a brutal honesty and leaves you with insightful lessons for you to discover.I highly recommend anyone in a small business to give this a read ! Having lived through a four year federal lawsuit the book ... Having lived through a four year federal lawsuit the book is a reminder of the process that all people can survive due process. A great story of pain and growth. I just finished this book in one sitting, and enjoyed it immensely. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Story-of-Walt-Disney-Audiobook/B01N1N6CX6 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Born in the year 1901, Walt Disney introduced us to the world of cartoons, animation, and fairy tales. Besides winning 22 Academy Awards during his lifetime and giving us lovable characters such as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, he was also the founder of Disneyland and Walt Disney World theme parks. People who met Walt Disney described him as a warm and outgoing person. But only people who knew him closely knew that he was an insecure and shy man. Some people accused him of being racist or anti-Semitic, whereas others consider him to be a representative of American imperialism.

Members Reviews: Great book! Definitely recommend Interesting read. Inspiring message to keep pushing foward even after major loss and continuous setbacks. Great book! Definitely recommend. Highly personal take The author tells an interesting story. It's his view of what happened and why. I'm not sure that you would want to take too many lessons from it but it is an interesting view into the world of entrepreneurship and how it can all go horribly wrong. You Won't Be Putting This Book Down Absolutely worth reading. Targeted for any audience whether an entrepreneur or not I promise you will be left feeling highly motivated and inspired. Could not put this book down! Beginning of the end? Not likely. This book uses the backdrop of the Microworkz saga to provide insight into the entrepreneurial spirit of failure and the value gained from each misstep. 1 part grass roots dot com movement and 1 part autobiography, this book is a good read for anyone interested in moving out of the shadows and embarking on your own path. The Good Fail also provides an opportunity to learn from a seasoned vet in the elusive craft of business success. Easy read, the lessons section is great and applicable to anyone Despite the title this is an interesting glimpse into the life of a success. Borderlines on being an autobiography. Worth your time but a word of warning, it may inspire you to quit your own job and pursue a start-up. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Madboy-Audiobook/B007RYHKVO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Madboy Subtitle: My Journey from Adboy to Adman Author: Richard Kirshenbaum Narrator: L. J. Ganser Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 04-09-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: A thrilling and irreverent memoir about the transformation of the advertising business from the 1980s to today. Richard Kirshenbaum was born to sell. Raised in a family of Long Island strivers, this future advertising titan was just a few years old when his grandfather first taught him that a Cadillac is more than a car, and that if you cant have a Trinitron you might as well not watch TV. He had no connections when he came to Madison Avenue, but he possessed an outrageous sense of humor that would make him a millionaire. In 1987, at the age of 26, Richard put his savings on the line to launch his own agency with partner Jonathan Bond, and within a year, had transformed it from a no-name firm into the go-to house for cutting-edge work. Kirshenbaum and Bond pioneered guerilla marketing by purchasing ad space on fruit, spray-painting slogans on the sidewalk, and hiring actors to order the Hennessy martini in nightclubs. They were the bad boys of Madison Avenuea firm where a skateboarding employee once bowled over an important clientbut backed up their madness with results. Packed with business insight, marketing wisdom, and a cast of characters ranging from Princess Diana to Ed McMahon, this memoir is as bold, as breathtaking, and as delightful as Richard himself. Critic Reviews: "A shimmering piece of work, in which the flash illuminates the creative act." (Kirkus Reviews) "With Madboy, Richie Kirshenbaum puts it all together in one great book on advertising. How it should be done. How he did it. And isn't it great fun." (Jerry Della Femina) "Madboy is the tell-all story of the modern ad world, crammed full of humor, wit, revealing anecdotes, and accurate portrayals of advertising's most colorful characters. Richard Kirshenbaum is Long G'Island's Don Draper."

Just wish it was in hard copy so I could share it.. Inspirational and interesting about a young man's rise to stardom in a crazy ad world. Fast and fun Okay It was interesting at the beginnning and quite honestly the write up told most of the best parts. A little too involved in ego on the part of the writer and how great he is and his advertising agency is to be very enjoyable. great read I enjoyed the book because i can relate to much of the content. It's well written and depicts an ad era that has been intriguing to me. Well done, Richard. Madboy - highly recommend this for Mad Men fans I bought this book at full price after reading the first few chapters on my Kindle. I really like the show "Mad Men" but you don't have to like the show to enjoy this book. I didn't know the name Richard Kirshenbaum before - but I sure know some of the work he created. His writing style is effortless, and I read the whole book over a couple of days. His writing created an intimate feel toward the advertising business that kept me going throughout the whole book; although I have to admit that by the end of it - I was getting a little sick of his boastfullness(translate:amazing self-confidence). That said, he wrote about both his own successes and failures, both in his early life and in his business life. His book is very inspiring - he worked hard for his success. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/A-Passion-for-Winning-Audiobook/B006MJRJ0C Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A Vanity Piece What disappointed you about A Passion for Winning? It's not a particularly interesting, but over-hyped life story. What was most disappointing about Aaron Cushmans story? Without knowing any of the details I'm sure a lot of it is exaggerated and can't help but get the feeling some of it is straight up lies: didn't sleep with any of the dancing girls despite the fact that they all thought he was totally hot? Seriously? I suspect he may have talked up his connections and glossed over some petty and quite boring corruption too. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Harvey-Firestone-Audiobook/B002VA9HTC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Lakshmi Mittal Subtitle: Irumbukkai Maayavi Author: Chokkan N Narrator: Dheenadayalan P Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 01-10-08 Publisher: New Horizon Media Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Think of iron, and two names immediately spring to mind. The first is Andrew Carnegie, the man who went from Scotland to the United States. Anticipating the need for iron in American industry, he started manufacturing it at lower costs and became one of the world's richest men. This was in the 1890s. The second is Lakshmi Mittal. Carnegie only anticipated the needs of the U.S., but Lakshmi Mittal foresaw the global demand for iron. Mittal would take any iron manufacturing unit in any corner of the globe and, if it was making losses, he would turn it around. He would buy up the factory and make its foundations as strong as iron itself. Every single factory that Mittal took over started to make profits as soon as his Midas hand touched it. His factories produce more iron than the entire production of India's iron-smelting facilities. How did he achieve this? His is no magic or miracle. He used hard work and self-confidence. Because of this, he has managed repeatedly to raise production higher than the capacity of the factory. Lakshmi Mittal is today the fifth-richest man in the world.

The first is Andrew Carnegie, the man who went from Scotland to the United States. Anticipating the need for iron in American industry, he started manufacturing it at lower costs and became one of the world's richest men. This was in the 1890s. The second is Lakshmi Mittal. Carnegie only anticipated the needs of the U.S., but Lakshmi Mittal foresaw the global demand for iron. Mittal would take any iron manufacturing unit in any corner of the globe and, if it was making losses, he would turn it around. He would buy up the factory and make its foundations as strong as iron itself. Every single factory that Mittal took over started to make profits as soon as his Midas hand touched it. His factories produce more iron than the entire production of India's iron-smelting facilities. How did he achieve this? His is no magic or miracle. He used hard work and self-confidence. Because of this, he has managed repeatedly to raise production higher than the capacity of the factory. Lakshmi Mittal is today the fifth-richest man in the world. But this high-achieving Indian does not own a single iron-manufacturing unit in India. The story of this super achiever, written by N. Chokkan, is certain to amaze the listener as he hears it.

Members Reviews: For those who want to know about television, this is a must read!!!! I've worked with Larry for a few years and while I enjoyed and admired him on so many levels I never really knew his life's story... And what a story it is.... a truly self made man, who learned from every experience to build towards the next one... he was right there while television was changing, while the whole entertainment was changing. He was at the forefront of it. And he saw these changes coming.... His book should be compulsory reading in all film and television schools... Great energy, great vision, great honesty...that's Larry! Pierre David Character On the surface this book is like having a delightful dinner sharing a friends experiences,but there is a more profound level to this book. A philosophy played out on the canvas of creative problem resolution.a philosophy of ones character.A philosophy that character incorporates respect,integrity,loyalty and honesty.Character traits so needed in our country's current institutions. I Learned Many Lessons From Larry Gershman Larry hired me as Editorial Director at WNBC-TV in the mid-70's Terrific guy to work for. ..with great emphasis on community involvement. I can see how his knowledge and success in building WNBC-TV 4 into the premier television station in New York City led to his future national and international achievements. Good read! WHAT A LIFE!! A heart warming tale of perseverance, determination, told with honesty, and a lot of humor. Larry Gershman comes from humble beginnings, met many amazing people along the way and has never forgotten where it all began. A great read for anyone interested in the 'good old days' of the television business told by someone who helped shape it! And the Lessons he refers to are both personal and professional. Again, both honest and humorous, the best way to reflect, in this reviewer's opinion. Enjoy! Loved it! Ave Butensky Mr. Gershman's thorough accounting of a professional and personal life -- one that resonates with the same people and things that have been on my front page - is a romp through a familiar script of what goes on behind the scenes of the television and film business. In brief, it is a page turner that pushes the reader to want more - to learn of the next chapter and beyond. It reads so very well -- and for me - it is also a reunion with so many people we've come to know. Loved it!

The book also offers the author's inspiring personal story about identity and multiculturalism. Rare family photos add to the book's personal nature, as does the intense recounting of domestic violence in the home of Barack Obama, Sr. and his third wife, Ruth Baker, Mark's Jewish-American mother. The book also attempts to set the record straight on several points of the president's best-selling memoir Dreams from My Father.

Members Reviews: A fascinating look at the publishing world Sterling Lord is the greatest of literary agents. He represented scores of famous writers. He drove hard bargains but was always a gentleman and always respected by writers and publishers alike. His memoir is a candid, colorful and fascinating account of more than fifty years of American literary history. I highly recommend it to writers and readers alike. It is a wonderful account of a wonderful life. And, happily, Mr. Lord is still going strong at 92. An Extraordinary Life Fully Lived After reading his memoir I became interested in some of his client's works that I haven't read and put them on my "bucket list" of ones to purchase. If this effects other readers in the same way, then he is still being a good agent in marketing their books. Entertaining and excellent reading. fascinating loved reading about his life in publishing-- the deal making and also the authors he represented. From Kerouac to Kesey-- takes a special person to do this. Well writen and highly interesting! This memoir is interesting and easy to read. Lord Sterling worked hard and crossed the path of amazing writers, agents and publishers. Everything You've Wanted to Know about Publishing but were Afraid to Ask Dignified, knowledgeable, loyal, patient, fierce when necessary, self-effacing, Sterling Lord is the perfect literary agent--and now it turns out he's a fine writer, too. Of course I'm thrilled that Sterling mentions me and Diary of a Company Man in his book, right alongside other clients of his such as Jack Kerouac, Ken Kesey, and Tom Wolfe. But, my ego aside, I heartily recommend Lord of Publishing. Anyone interested in the book business - its history, evolution and current state - will find it a revelation.

Members Reviews: Ok but Hours of repeating things. The reader must tell you a least 15 times that Simon is linked to Sony. You told us this in the first chapter. Why do we need to be told this every 30 minutes? Interesting book if you remove everything thats repeated it would last half the time. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Reach-for-the-Skies-Audiobook/B003XFKJAA Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Reach for the Skies Subtitle: Ballooning, Birdmen and Blasting into Space Author: Richard Branson Narrator: Adrian Mulraney Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs Language: English Release date: 07-27-10 Publisher: Random House AudioBooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: "As far back as stories go, pioneers have reached for the skies. In the last two hundred years, they have mastered the air and made the modern world possible. Today they are bringing outer space within our reach. They're inventors and toymakers, amateurs and adventurers, visionaries, dreamers and, yes, crackpots. Some have called them irresponsible, even dangerous. But I have met many of them. I have worked with them, and funded them, and flown with them. I admire them, and trust them, and I think they and their kind are our future. "In this book I look at the history of flight through the stories and people who have inspired me. These are tales of miraculous rescues; of records made and broken; of surprising feats of endurance and survival, including some of my own adventures, as well as developments in the future of air (and space) travel. "This is a story of pioneers, and of course it includes the world famous Montgolfiers and the Wright brothers. But I also want to describe some of the lesser-known trailblazers - people like Tony Jannus, who in 1914 created the world's first scheduled commercial flight, flying his passengers over the waters of Tampa Bay at an altitude of just 50 feet; the bird man Leo Valentin, who in the 1950s jumped from 9,000 feet with wooden wings attached to his shoulders; and my friend, Steve Fossett, who dedicated his life to breaking records and having adventures."

Richard Branson Members Reviews: Fascinating but let down by poor narration What did you like best about Reach for the Skies? What did you like least? Branson's passion for flight is palpable in every phrase in this remarkable potted history of manned flight. It is well researched, full of interesting little morsels of information, and structured in as logical a manner as one could hope, given the breadth of material covered. There is a sense, in places, of the sales pitch for Virgin's various airlines and, in particular, Virgin Galactic, but this seems more an honest byproduct of the author's infectious enthusiasm for the subject than calculated self-promotion. What didnt you like about Adrian Mulraneys performance? Mulraney's pacing is slow (I listened at 1.25x, which I very rarely feel compelled to do) and the tempo of some phrases awkward. I found him rather jarring, and would avoid choosing another work performed by him, which is unfortunate as he seems to have rather the monopoly on the unabridged audio versions of Branson's work. Amazing Overview of Manned Flight I'm a big fan of Branson's writing style - he means it, it's from the heart and it's how he speaks. This is even more powerful as it's narrated by Sir Dick himself and you can hear his passion and love for the subject in every sentance. Not quite as engaging as 'Losing My Virginity' which is one of the best business audo books available but nevertheless a great yarn about manned flight and his own record-breaking feats and playing as a kid with Douglas Bader! I'm heavily into the history of science and there was a few terrific stories and short bio's that were detaield here. If you're into 'boys toys', 'flying', 'adventure' or simply Brand Branson you'll love it! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Starting-at-the-Top-Audiobook/B002V5BVF0 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: My New Favourite Book! A frank, unflinching & honest account of what it takes to build a market leading independent business from scratch. A masterclass in both sales and marketing from Neville, full of common sense, contrarian investment gems and razor sharp business acumen. A rollercoaster ride with amazing achievements and truly dark times also. Neville is a genuine national treasure and this book is a blueprint in how to succeed, not just in business but in life. - Jon Gallagher Fantastic listen This is as good as any other biography I've listened to - Elon Musk, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Richard Branson etc. etc. A fantastic account of starting at the bottom and working right to the top. Really enjoyed this and will definitely listen again, a lot to learn here! Great story & lessons I really enjoyed this book, lots of lessons learned with great insights, this is one of my books I will be listening to again, I really enjoyed the honesty of this story. It helped show me where I am on my journey, I can relate to some of the challenges they faced, great job Neville and thanks for writing this book it has been joy listening too & really helpful. I highly recommend this book if you enjoy good stories about entrepreneurs with lots of lessons and insights. good read Good read of how hard it can be to succeed.. Persistance is key especially in the tough times. Exceptional! It is one of the best motivational books i have read/listened to in that whilst a biography of your "career" it clearly shows that whilst there may well be hiccups along the way so long as you take at least one step forward each day you will get to wherever you want rather than a do this do that type of book you actually demonstrate it through the biographical element. I feel I know both you and Marion. Whoever did the narrative for you was excellent too I thought it was you until he pronounced Hereward wrong. Thank you!

Members Reviews: Micro Distilleries in New York State Fascinate Readers and Drinkers What, you may ask, does a Utah Mormon do with a book about small distilleries in New York State? Well, I happen to be a writer, and I am already considering how to work some of this information into some of my novels. To sum up quickly, changes in the law allow New York residents to go commercial with spirits in much smaller quantities than was previously required, and to treat them as farm produce rather than as alcoholic beverages. The result has to be an extremely varied crop of beverages, many of which sounded interesting. The only thing that concerns me--and this is a concern with the liquor rather than with the book--is that absinthe is being produced. Absinthe is well known to seriously damage the brain when taken in even moderate amounts, and I would hate to see the Paris experience with absinthe repeated in New York. France long since outlawed absinthe entirely, and its major ingredient, wormwood, was declared unfit for human consumption. But the book itself is interesting, and if you use alcoholic beverages, and live in or intend to visit New York, you are likely to have a use for this information. A very interesting book I thought this book was very interesting. I liked learning about the different distilleries and the craft spirits. It was nice that there were recipes included that you can use these spirits in. A fun book for anyone interested in spirits. Even though I do not drink all that much I still thought the book was a good one. This book would also make a good coffee table book. Unique & Well Written! What a unique and well written book! A great gift for the spirit connoisseur, to delve into the world of the small distilleries through the the great state of NY. Definitely a great coffee table book and there are recipes that you can try. This book an be a guide to some great gifts for the holidays or otherwise. A book ad a bottle! Enjoy! A thoughtful account of local distilleries This book is very well laid out, from each distillers history to the drink recommendations. It is refreshing that the book is written from the author's perspective, providing a more personal and honest feel. There was an old sitcom episode about a coffee table book, well this is displayed as my bar book. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Walt-Disney-Luomo-che-trasformo-la-sua-fantasia-in-realta-Audiobook/B0111WQR3O Ascolta questo libro audio completo gratuitamente su https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> Titolo: Walt Disney: L'uomo che trasformò la sua fantasia in realtà Autore: Francesco Benedetto Belfiore Narratore: Fabio Farnè Formato: Unabridged Durata: 1 hr and 55 mins Lingua: Italiano Data di pubblicazione: 07-07-15 Editore: Area 51 Short Categoria: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Riepilogo Editore: Questo audiolibro ripercorre la storia di uno dei personaggi più importanti della storia del cinema e non solo: Walt Disney.

Members Reviews: You Can't Say That An interesting set of memoirs although it does get into quite a lot of detail from time to time. Ken really exposes the inner workings of both local and national government. For me what's missing is Ken's voice, much better had he narrated the book himself. Wish there were more like him If you could sum up You Can't Say That in three words, what would they be? shocking and sad What other book might you compare You Can't Say That to, and why? lots but this is about now! What does Cameron Stewart bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you had only read the book? good If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? they said it wouldnt be made Any additional comments? everyone should read it Not dreadful I believe Livingston to be a decent and intelligent man, with strongly held principles. It's a pity so much of the book is set aside for reiterating that. Much of the remainder is set aside with examples of how Boris Johnson is lacking in principles or decency. Given that Johnson supplanted Livingston as mayor twice comes across as sour grapes. Too much self justification. Too little on the meaty stuff like battles with Thatcher. 3 stars as some enlightening stuff on Blair, Brown, Kinnock etc. Narration is unremarkable. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Iron-Horses-of-the-Santa-Fe-Southwest-Audiobook/B0048FICPS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Iron Horses Chug a Bit Sonja Howle begins IRON HORSES OF THE SANTA FE SOUTHWEST by describing a personal encounter with the Super Chief as it tore across her father's ranch one day. The incident and good use of sound effectscaught my attention in this audio book about the history of the Santa Fe Railroad. From that point, Ms. Howle traces the railroad's history from laying the tracks to the latest 21st Century mergers for the line. She gives the reader a good sense of the business of railroading, and also talks about the Santa Fe Railroad's influence on an important New Mexico commodoty--art. Agents from the railroad commissioned both Native American and Non-Native painters, sculpters, and designers to create everything from curios to sell along platforms, to tableware for Fred Harvey Houses. Under architect Mary Coulton's eye, the designs maintained a unifying theme--to sell people on traveling to the southwest. The influence is felt to this day among New Mexico artists, as they sell to the crowd that descends from the sky now for summer hiking and music, and winter skiing. In addition, Ms. Howle explores the development of the hotel industry, and the social implications of being a Harvey Girl in one of Fred Harvey's restuarant. IRON HORSES OF THE SANTA FE SOUTHWEST: THE POWER OF VISION is a fascinating look at the politics and sociology of art, business, and daily life as influenced by a corporate giant. Ms. Howle is a master at writing for the ear, so the book is pleasent to listen to and easy to follow. Unfortunately, it can get dry at times, reading like a term paper. She might have considered adding music, and environmental sounds, or using actors to read quotes from people involved in developing, running and maintaining the Santa Fe Railroad. IRON HORSES OF THE SOUTHWEST is a human story that Ms. Howle tells in very human terms. Let's have some people-sounds to complete the image, since we're using the audio medium. Corporate Social Responsibility and the Santa Fe Railway Conventional wisdom states that the highest goal of a business is to maximize shareholder return. The only constraint is to do nothing illegal. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/My-First-Time-Audiobook/B0098MS0QM Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Love the initial phone call that started it all and had hoped the book would be more about that story an the first of the book was but now I'm getting bogged down with the principles they established, followed and why they implemented them. Not a fun read. Interesting story but nothing new here I like stories of people who build businesses and while I am unfamiliar with this company I took a chance on the story. The storyline is interesting how they got the company turned around and built it into what it is today. The timeless principles are nothing you havent read but hey these ladies are successful and it is a nice read but no big lessons just a good success stroy. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/A-Road-Well-Traveled-Audiobook/B002V0RKB4 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: A Road Well Traveled Subtitle: Profiles of America's Great Automobile Pioneers, Vol. I Author: Daniel Alef Narrator: Baron Ron Herron Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 02-09-09 Publisher: Meta4 Press Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: These pioneers lifted the veil of isolation that enveloped most pre-twentieth century Americans and made it possible for the average person to travel whenever and wherever he or she pleased. Automobiles changed the concept of transportation and more so, how and where we lived, worked, and played. Written by award-winning author and syndicated columnist Daniel Alef, who has written more than 300 biographical profiles of America's great tycoons, and narrated by radio personality Baron Ron Herron, A Road Well Traveled offers many lessons to be draw from these pioneers and the fascinating lives they led. Some became fabulously wealthy; others died in obscurity. But they developed America's largest industry in the space of one generation and demonstrated the skills and characteristics necessary to achieve such success. Their audacity, determination, perseverance, work-ethic, and passion were unassailable. These pioneers were undaunted by any and all obstacles in their path. Their stories are instructive and absorbing. Volume I of A Road Well Traveled tells the fascinating stories of the following automotive pioneers: Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., David D. Buick, William C.

Title: Relentless Author: Ted B Rogers Narrator: Vern Johansson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 01-02-09 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Ltd Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Ted Rogers, who passed away in December 2008, tells in Relentless the story of how he built Rogers Communications into one of the largest companies in Canadian history - and in only one generation. The tragic, premature death of his father, radio pioneer Ted Rogers Sr., left his family with little except the burning desire to reclaim what they had lost. From an early age, Ted was fascinated with radio and television; he once strung wires out of his dorm room to a roof-top antenna to bring in U.S. programming to Toronto before the city had any stations. As a law student, he invested everything he had in an FM station, buying CHFI when only five percent of the market actually owned an FM radio. Rogers was always characteristically frank about his successes and his failures. Over the years, he faced challenges to his domain, sometimes risking so much that it nearly cost him everything. Each time, however, he returned stronger than ever. Written in a highly accessible style, Relentless will appeal as much to Main Street as to Bay Street. Filled with backroom deals, on-air battles and the often outrageous exploits of this communications visionary, Relentless is as vibrant and honest as Ted Rogers was himself. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Ted B Rogers) Fri, 02 Jan 2009 20:26:28 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Relentless-Audiobook/B002UZKKLM thebookvoice.com 08:21:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Buck Stops Here Author: Ashutosh Garg Narrator: Sanjeev Gupta Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 56 mins Language: English Release date: 10-22-14 Publisher: Reado Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Entrepreneurs are participants, not observers; players, not fans; leaders, not followers. This is the story of an entrepreneur who turned a one store pharmacy into a 250-plus store pharmacy retail chain, the second largest in India. The Buck Stops Here is an engaging account of the entrepreneurial journey of the author while building Guardian Pharmacy, India's fastest growing pharmacy retail chain, as well as the bold transition he made from being a top manager for 25 years to an entrepreneur. Ashutosh Garg provides a fascinating insight into how he became "The Professional Entrepreneur" by implementing the best practices he learnt as a manager while building Guardian as a strong organization. Garg's life epitomizes, made famous by the former US president Harry S. Truman. At his first job as a credit manager at ITC Maurya Shereton, he shot off a "pay up or else" reminder to a very important customer, since it was his responsibility to do so. It is another matter that he had to then camp outside the customer's house to prevent the postman from delivering the letter, or else he would have been fired from his job for having done his job. The audiobook blends the rich and varied experience of the author, highlighting his joys, frustrations, successes and failures. The Buck Stops Here is full of anecdotes and lessons from real life that will guide and prepare the listener to recognize the hidden opportunities and identify dead ends on the road to building a new business that can be scaled up into a nationwide business. The author hopes this book encourages and inspires "budding" entrepreneurs to dream BIG and "dormant" entrepreneurs to take the plunge. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Ashutosh Garg) Wed, 22 Oct 2014 06:33:27 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Buck-Stops-Here-Audiobook/B00OQQTKDW thebookvoice.com 09:56:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Singo Subtitle: The John Singleton Story Author: Gerald Stone Narrator: David Tredinnick Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 01-23-13 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: John Singleton is one of Australia's most colourful and charismatic personalities, constantly in the headlines for his stunning business coups and extraordinary lifestyle. His public image is that of the loveable larrikin: a brash, irreverent bloke's bloke, ready to shout drinks for an entire racecourse to celebrate a big win. Yet the women in his life - and that includes an astonishing total of six wives - speak to a complex and highly sensitive man capable of great charm and tenderness. The true story of his turbulent life, revealed for the first time in this boots-and-all biography by Gerald Stone, is both fascinating and inspiring. It stands as living proof that in an increasingly impersonal world there's still a way to achieve fame and fortune by having the courage to be yourself. Critic Reviews: "He's got this uncanny knack of being able to get in sync with the average Australian." (Bob Hawke) "He lives his life on the edge and I think maybe for all the women, that's part of the deal - the risk, the danger factor."

This is the highly entertaining and eye-opening memoir of a young boy growing up in 1950s post-war London. With energy and insight, Billy Brown paints a vivid and lively picture of Britain emerging from the ruins of the war, the hunger for opportunity, the growing pace of modernisation, and the pride and optimism that held communities together. Londoners were intent on getting themselves back on their feet, and it provided the perfect opportunity for a boy with ambition and a lively imagination. Born in Brixton, south London, in 1942, Billy Brown was a loveable scamp with a nose for mischief. Left to his own devices whilst both his parents went out to work, if there was trouble to be had, Billy would be in the thick of it. Ignoring the shaking of fists from his neighbours, his mother's scoldings, and the regular thwack of the cane on his bottom at school, Billy wheeled and dealed, charmed Woolies Girls, planned coronation celebrations, ran circles around circus performers, and persuaded villains to work on his terms. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Bill Brown) Wed, 09 Mar 2011 11:44:40 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Billy-Brown-Ill-Tell-Your-Mother-Audiobook/B004R6NKS2 thebookvoice.com 08:40:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: It 's great story about post world war two Britain What did you love best about Billy Brown, I'll Tell Your Mother? that a small boy in those times was able to go out and earn money,and have adventures,and enjoy himself at the same time What was one of the most memorable moments of Billy Brown, I'll Tell Your Mother? When billy's girlfriend told him she was going to South Africa, I cryed. What about Bill Browns performance did you like? I lived during that time ,I was a little younger,but I remembered what it felt like to live at that time while it was being read,that man made me belive that he did live through that time. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I laughed at almost every page,I live in Canada, and it's years since I have heard the real cockney accent,and that made all the more real to me,I also had a cry,but it was one of the best books I have read in a long time,more so because it was read by Bill Brown. Any additional comments? If there are any more books by Bill Brown I would love to know about them. Definitely one to revisit many times over. Engaging, witty, poignant, and entertaining; read by the original author who brings such a quality of warmth and mischief that one lives through the adventures with him. Oh billy brown. I loved Billy's Brown. The story was read well. I enjoyed the innocent of childhood but the craftiness of the time in post war. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Unauthorized-Guide-to-Doing-Business-the-Philip-Green-Way-Audiobook/B004EF16WS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: On Gandhi's Path Subtitle: Bob Swann's Work for Peace and Community Economics Author: Stephanie Mills Narrator: Dave Adams Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 08-03-11 Publisher: Post Hypnotic Press Inc. Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Bigger has turned out not to be better. Servicing the global economy has exacted a heavy toll in the erosion of our communities and the destruction of our environment. Increasingly, we are coming to realize that the way forward looks a lot like the way back back to strong local economies, back to resilient, tight-knit communities, back to the land and work that is real. As we chart our course through these uncertain times, we are hungry for inspiration. Robert Swann was a self-taught economist, a tireless champion of decentralism, and the father of the relocalization movement. A conscientious war resistor imprisoned for his beliefs, Bob Swann engaged in lifelong nonviolent direct action against war, racism, and economic inequity. His legacy is a vision of a life-affirming, alternative economy of peace founded on innovations in land and monetary reform.Swann's story is also the untold history of decentralism in the United States. He associated with a constellation of vital, intelligent independent authors and activists, and ultimately co-founded the Schumacher Society based on the philosophies of Small Is Beautiful author E. F. Schumacher.Swann forged tools to build productive, resilient local and regional economies. Now as global industrial civilization flails in the throes of ecological and economic crisis, Swann's working innovations are at the ready to help neighborhoods, local entrepreneurs, and willing communities to rebuild at appropriate scales. Critic Reviews: "Stephanie Mills has described Bob Swans life with eloquence, elegance and profoundness and as a result the book is deeply engaging and enchanting. "On Gandhis Path" is a lucid narrative of the life of Bob Swann who was a living example of simplicity, humility and radicalism. This is a book which describes how a man offered himself to serve the people and the planet selflessly. This book is a good guide to all activists who are working to transform the world." (Satish Kumar, editor, Resurgence Magazine and Visiting Fellow at Schumacher College) "Bob Swann was the unsung American Gandhi. He was a pioneer in intentional communities, local currencies, populist architecture, cooperatives, radical decentralization, land trusts, draft resistance, and antiwar activism. Stephanie Millss biography exquisitely fills the historical void, showing how much a humble but determined individual could transform American life and reminding us of many of our ideals are still possible. (Michael Shuman, author, The Small-Mart Revolution) "One of the great unrecognized heroes of the 20th century decentralist movement, Bob Swann here gets the careful, serious, and may I say loving, treatment he deserves."

(The New York Times) Members Reviews: Nothing about driving growth or passion here! This is the most disappointing book I have come across audible so far. The book is supposed to be about passion and driving growth in today's internet driven world, instead the author gives you advice on things that really should be norms in business today. If you are a shady type of person that lacks business ethics and values money over your customers then this is for you. As for passion, if the author would start with a more passionate voice maybe I would have at least finished the book, but the dry monotone reminded me of my grade 8 physics master who used to lull the whole class to sleep. I had to turn it off. There is nothing about driving growth or passion here, instead its a pitch about how good Schwab is and how ethical they are, which takes me back to the first point I made, if you lack ethics in the way you do business and want to change that then this book is for you. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Howard-Schultz-Audiobook/B07956HZ66 Escuche este audio libro completo gratis en https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> Título: Howard Schultz Subtitular: Las revolucionarias ideas hechas realidad [Howard Schultz: Revolutionary Ideas Made Reality] Autor: Online Studio Productions Narrador: uncredited Formato: Unabridged Duración: 29 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 01-22-18 Editor: Online Studio Productions Categorías: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Resumen del editor: Las grandes corporaciones y las empresas transnacionales han configurado durante los últimos años el rostro más patente del actual proceso de globalización.

Proporcionó el liderazgo suficiente para convertir una compañía de radio insignificante y al borde de la quiebra en una organización exitosa. Cuando se hizo cargo de esta compañía, William S. Paley tenía 27 años y le bastaron sólo 10 años para convertir CBS en la empresa dominante en la industria de la radio, haciéndose legendario como empresario de radiodifusión. Su sentido de la visión y su inmensa capacidad para los negocios hizo que CBS se posicionara en el mercado como una compañía importante, y eventualmente, en una fuerza dominante, superando incluso a otro titán de la radio y la televisión estadounidenses, la eterna cadena rival NBC. Por otro lado, Paley fue un hombre con varios intereses y dejó su impronta en otros campos importantes del saber humano. Paley, con su excepcional estilo de liderazgo creó una nueva visión organizacional y se convirtió en un referente imprescindible no sólo para los empresarios de telecomunicaciones, sino para administradores y líderes en todos los campos de las ciencias sociales.

Su sentido de la visión y su inmensa capacidad para los negocios hizo que CBS se posicionara en el mercado como una compañía importante, y eventualmente, en una fuerza dominante, superando incluso a otro titán de la radio y la televisión estadounidenses, la eterna cadena rival NBC. Por otro lado, Paley fue un hombre con varios intereses y dejó su impronta en otros campos importantes del saber humano. Paley, con su excepcional estilo de liderazgo creó una nueva visión organizacional y se convirtió en un referente imprescindible no sólo para los empresarios de telecomunicaciones, sino para administradores y líderes en todos los campos de las ciencias sociales.

Essendo un essere geniale, ha dato all'arte di pubblicare libri una funzione nuova, più profonda e rivoluzionaria. I libri dovevano cambiare la vita dei lettori e il mondo che li circondava, dando a chi li leggeva la chiave magica che apriva tutte le porte e trasformava un pastore in un uomo colto che sapeva osservare e capire la realtà. Un'utopia? Forse, ma milioni di libri della leggendaria Casa editrice Einaudi hanno lasciato una traccia indelebile nel cuore e nella mente di chi li ha toccati, aperti, scoperti rivelando una dimensione nuova di vivere. Però, come tutti gli uomini celebri, la vita pubblica e quella privata di Giulio Einaudi seguivano vie completamente diverse. L'uomo pubblico, amato, ammirato, invidiato, spesso criticato per lo snobismo e il gusto del gioco crudele, un po' sadico, certamente non proprio affettuoso, nascondeva meticolosamente l'uomo privato, timido, insicuro dei suoi sentimenti, che assisteva alla "Commedia del mondo" cercando di trarne un senso che non fosse una regola o un'ideologia. Quest'uomo segreto vedeva nei libri degli esseri viventi, con un odore, un profumo, una vita che si sviluppava autonomamente nel tempo e nella mente dei lettori.

Title: Fields of Success Author: Dr Joseph Profit Narrator: Levone Tobin Scott Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 07-09-15 Publisher: Multimedia Digital Broadcast Corporation/Youth United for Prosperity, Inc. Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Most of us have one reaction when we hear the name Joe Profit; we think, can that really be his name? It seems all too fitting that one of the most prominent businessmen in America could have a surname that literally defines financial success. But Joe Profit's story is about much more than success in the business field, it is about success in all fields of life. Raised in one of the poorest areas of the country during the days of segregation in the American south, Joe Profit grew strong through the lessons of determination and perseverance he learned in the cotton fields of Louisiana. After enduring the hardships of segregation as a child, he was a walk-on at the University of Louisiana, Monroe (formerly NLU) an all-white football team, where he became the first black to play football and graduate college in four years in the entire Southeastern part of the US! After blazing a trail for African-American athletes in the American Deep South, he was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the first round of the 1971 NFL Draft. From there he started many of his businesses. He was the first African-American franchisee for the International House of Pancakes (IHOP) in the state of Georgia and quickly started a string of Burger King Franchises. In addition to his chain of restaurants he is the founder of a $100 million international telecommunications firm, Multimedia Digital Broadcast Corporation the predecessor to (CII), which INC. 500 Magazine ranked as one of America fastest growing privately held companies, for three years in a row. Through Dr. Profit's business endeavors and philanthropist, he has given back to the community while developing programs for our Youth and has made jobs available to over 800 people. Profit himself has received numerous awards, including the Granville T. Woods Award for Outstanding CEO, named Entrepreneur of the Year from Ernest & Young among others. He was also inducted into the Business and Sports Hall of Fame. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Dr Joseph Profit) Thu, 09 Jul 2015 09:26:21 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Fields-of-Success-Audiobook/B0117TXALS thebookvoice.com 09:17:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

As another reviewer wrote, Joe Profit should be a household name. Perhaps this book will help make that so. Fields of Success is a wonderful gift for anyone who loves the story and inspiration of human drama. I would especially give this to young men who are looking to make the most of their future. Awesome motivational Story Matthew Nebel writes in a compelling way, helping the reader appreciate the success, motivation, and hard work of Joe Profit. It seems to me like Joe Profit should be more of a household name, I wish I would have heard about him before. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Fare-utili-Audiobook/B00TNWXXOQ Ascolta questo libro audio completo gratuitamente su https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> Titolo: Fare utili Autore: Mario Tasso Narratore: Mario Tasso Formato: Unabridged Durata: 49 mins Lingua: Italiano Data di pubblicazione: 08-13-13 Editore: GoodMood Categoria: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Riepilogo Editore: Mario Tasso e' un imprenditore nel vero senso della parola, e gestisce imprese di successo in settori diversi.

Title: The GVO Story Subtitle: From Tiny Acorn to Mighty Oak Author: Jean Shaw Narrator: Jean Shaw Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 08-13-14 Publisher: Jean Shaw Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: Joel Therien is proof that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Joel Therien's life story is one of determination and inspiration. As a professional body builder, he had the world title in his sights. Then aspartame poisoning destroyed his career and almost his life. Joel's search for answers led him to the internet, and thus began his remarkable online journey. He took note of all the tools and systems internet and network marketers needed to have a successful online presence, and an idea formed in his mind. Joel took positive action on his idea despite somewhat negative initial support, and this eventually resulted in the creation of a multi-million dollar company providing essential internet hosting and marketing solutions for businesses large and small. His vision has changed the lives of thousands of people worldwide. Not only do his products provide all the tools and services anyone doing business on the internet wants and needs under one roof, with one set of log-in details at a price most people can afford, but they are also global home business opportunities (if you wish them to be so). Although hugely successful as an online marketer and service provider, Joel's real passion is health and fitness, and as his health improved, Joel returned to his primary interest. He now also runs a unique online health and fitness lifestyle program, which is changing the lives of many, not least because it is also a global home business opportunity. The simplicity of the 7MinuteWorkout program involves working out just seven minutes a day, three times a week. Its sustainability makes this program one Joel hopes will help reduce the rising obesity and diabetes epidemics in developed countries. Trusted and liked by his clients and peers, Joel's integrity and transparency is to be admired and his motto for success is just "Take Action!"

I really wanted to know how Hollywood was established and I got that information. It was a very interesting story from that perspective. However, the telling of H. J.'s and Gigi's personal story was told in a way that seemed to try to romanticize a relationship that was perhaps anything but. Perhaps it was the narration that made it seem particularly gushy at times. The quality of the narration was mediocre and, particularly, the sound quality needs to be improved as the volume goes up and down constantly, needing me to adjust my volume to listen to it quite frequently. Horrible narration knocks OK book down a peg. Would you try another book from Gaelyn Whitley Keith and/or Shawna Windom? Only if I were really mad at myself. The narration was among the worst I've ever heard. And the story, while somewhat interesting, is told as if the main character, Hobart Johnstone Whitley, were far more interesting and important than he actually was. The author is Whitley's great granddaughter, and she is massively over-impressed by her ancestor's life and character. She describes relatively ordinary and common characteristics and actions as if they were profoundly extraordinary. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Father of Hollywood? I most remember how astonishingly bad the narration was. Would you be willing to try another one of Shawna Windoms performances? Absolutely not! Judging by the atrocious narration, I thought for sure this book was read by a family member of the author. I was shocked to see that Windom the list of her narrations on Audible.com. stretches to 13 pages. (Then again, the general quality of the material on that list supports my suspicion that Windom is not a top shelf talent.) Windom reads this book with the intensely annoying habit of frequently using pauses where there should be none. Worse yet, instead of simply taking a quick pause for breath, she inflects her voice as if she were at the end of a meaningful phrase. I can't recall a specific example from the book (I must have blocked it out for sanity's sake), but here's what I mean. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Accidental-Billionaires-Audiobook/B0048F5XNC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

The authors tried to make it as interesting as possible all the time. Great author, good book, but don't write your history reports based on this. If you've ever read Ben Mezrich you know what you're getting into. He's a very solid writer who is great at putting forth the actual ideas and feelings of what happened, even if the details aren't exactly accurate. Read this book, enjoy it, but don't expect it to line up exactly with the events. blueprint for TheSocial Network I really enjoyed reading this book. I was amazed at how much the film, The Social Network, stayed true to the source material. Many scenes in the book are mirrored in the movie. But that's because Ben Mazirch has a knack for creating compelling scenes and dropping the reader right into the middle of the action. This gets you turning the pages at a rapid rate, and, despite it being so similar to the film, the book still thoroughly entertains. The story does seem to end abruptly, which is my only gripe. That might have something to do with when it was originally released and what was known at the time about facebook versus the added info to date. In any case, I wanted more -- which, if you think about it, is a compliment. Regardless I still highly recommend this book. Great tale of obsession Great story and good chronological account of not the most pleasant of characters, this true story told of Facebook "founder" Zuckerberg as a prime example of the type of person who becomes extraordinarily successful in American business today. Single minded to the exclusion of many of the normal and good things in life, untrustworthy, oblivious to even valid criticism, highly exploitative of others, carelessly treacherous when deemed useful, he was a weird and difficult but brilliant tech nerd, and nearly pathologically driven to succeed at almost any cost to others and does so to the highest level in the American social networking boom that almost defies logical understanding by anyone over 30 or so to see how a social chatroom could be so desperately important to users and seen as a true revolution by many. Entertaining but innaccurate This book was very interesting it's a fictional book. If you want some entertainment it's an excellent choice but for more accurate information about Facebook I recommend "The Facebook Effect". https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/A-Simples-Life-Audiobook/B0047DQ6LI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Funny & Amusing basically it's Simples ekk! Its not a serious story but its funny, and fills an hour of your day be that during your commute to wrk or on a lunch break its till a good deal. just imagine an hour long comparethemeerkat.com advert...lol Loving every minute of it never giggled so much. Hour of fun for the price of a pint Look, you know what you are going to get, a funny story read in a funny accent. Its cheap, its 'simples' and really when you think for under 3 quid you can have an hour book that will amuse you on the way to work as you listen to it in your car/ipod you really dont have an excuse not to download it. Simples! What did you like most about A Simples Life? A funny story and easy listen Who was your favorite character and why? Aleksandr, however sergai is a close second What about Aleksandr Orlovs performance did you like? The story line Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? No Any additional comments? If you need a quick story and a few laughs then this book is just for you. (if you like Meercats) Hilarious Fun I needed cheering up whilst in hospital. This did the trick. Listened to it multiple times. Shame not longer. Great for wanting some easy listening that puts a smile on your face. Great stuff! I could listen to Aleksandr until the meer pups arrive home every day! The epic story is great and with the asides about other characters very amusing. Sergei comes in for some criticism but that's only to be expected and what we want anyway. Can't get enough of the Meerkats whether it be a book, advert or outshining Coronation Street. This has given me the opportunity to improve my accent as I've listened to it so much I could narrate myself. One of those audio books that makes you laugh out loud and gets you funny looks when listening to it while driving. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Roy-Chapin-Audiobook/B002VA9HK6 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The First Billion is the Hardest Subtitle: Reflections on a Life of Comebacks and America's Energy Future Author: T. Boone Pickens Narrator: Arthur Morey Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 09-16-08 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 281 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: When Pickens left Mesa at age 68 after a spectacular downward spiral in the company's profits, many counted him out. Indeed, what followed for him was a painful divorce, clinical depression, a temporary inability to predict the movement of energy prices, and the loss of 90 percent of his investing capital. But Pickens was far from out. From that personal and professional nadir, Pickens staged one of the most impressive comebacks in the industry, turning his investment fund's remaining $3 million into $8 billion in profit in just a few years. That made him, at age 77, the world's second-highest-paid hedge fund manager. But he wasn't done yet. Today, Pickens is making some of the world's most colossal energy bets. If he has his way, most of America's cars will eventually run on natural gas, and vast swaths of the nation's prairie land will become places where wind can be harnessed for power generation. Currently no less bold than he was decades ago when he single-handedly transformed America's oil industry, Pickens is staking billions on the conviction that he knows what's coming. In this book, he spells out that future in detail, not only presenting a comprehensive plan for American energy independence but also providing a fascinating glimpse into key resources such as water - yet another area where he is putting billions on the line. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (T.

Members Reviews: A Guide for a U.S. National Energy Policy. Overall this was a very informative book for anyone interested the future of the U.S. as a world power. There's something for everyone in here. Some of the more interesting topics covered where: big oil, natural gas, commodities trading, building a business from the ground up, leadership, taking risks, having a plan, many 'Boon-isms', taking care of yourself and leaving a legacy. Of course you'll learn a tremendous amount what makes T. Boone tick. If you are following the energy crisis (which could be a bigger issue than the housing and financial crisis), renewables, global warming, or the Pikens Plan, you'll learn a lot in this book. The only negative I found where a few of the statistics. I thought they may have been stretched to play on your emotion. That said, I found most of the stats to be well researched and backed up with credible sources. Great personal story This is a story of a guy who didn't know how to quit. This was one of the more interesting accounts of business success I've heard. The Energy Industry I enjoyed this personal account that covered a lifetime in the industry. The dates, names of people and places, and discrete conversations made each recollection seem like is just happened yesterday. I also found the hindsight to be critical yet produce a learning point. egocasting at its worst I was hoping to hear an inspiring story from a captain of industry and an expert on energy. What I heard was an unabashed review of "Boonisms" that were clearly self serving towards helping Mr. Pickens strut his stuff. Even on energy, all he was doing was pitching the listener on replacing gasoline with natural gas, which he sells! In my opinion, this book was an entire waste of time. T Boone is the man I really liked this book. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Autobiography-of-Andrew-Carnegie-The-Gospel-of-Wealth-Audiobook/B076MMQN4J Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A Remarkable Life Story Would you listen to The Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie & The Gospel of Wealth again? Why? Yes...The entire life of Andrew Carnegie turned out to be quite intriguing. From coming to America and working in a factory to eventually becoming a steel tycoon, and achieving the accomplishments he did in life, to the unselfish acts and legacy he left behind made this book a real pleasure to listen to. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie & The Gospel of Wealth? The fact that he donated much of his wealth towards helping humanity and building libraries in the latter part of his life was simply amazing. What does David McCallion bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? David McCallion did this book great justice. His Scottish accent added a great touch to the narration. His character voices were also a nice touch, along with a pace that kept your interest the entire way. A Truely INCREDIBLE Human Being What made the experience of listening to The Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie & The Gospel of Wealth the most enjoyable? This was a very enlightening autobiography about Andrew Carnegie which showed what a true philanthropist he was, and what a big heart the man had. It gives great insight of how Carnegie came into his fortune, becoming one of the wealthiest businessmen of his time, but the most intriguing aspect of this book for me was the fact that money and greed didnt seem to fuel him like it does with most of todays elite. Carnegie gave back out of the goodness of his heart, which shows what his true ambition in life was... caring about humanity rather than growing his wealth. What does David McCallion bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Hats off to David McCallion, he did a wonderful job going between the standard narration voice and the Scottish accents throughout the book which gave it a great feel. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Not a single moment, but the overall life that this man had, and where he came from to what he became, and how he gave back to those he didn't know makes you wish that we had someone like him to look up to in our generation today. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Pocket-Man-Audiobook/B018HADVT6 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Since starting SCOTTeVEST in 2000 - my clothing business built around tech-enabled pockets - I've been featured in thousands of major press pieces, made millions of dollars, and had the most memorable appearance of the entire ABC Shark Tank show. I started out as an unhappy lawyer, and I reinvented myself by pursuing my passions and mastering the art of passionate, personal promotion. This isn't a how-to business book, but entrepreneurs will learn a lot from my successes and failures about how to get the attention every business needs to stand above the competition. This isn't fiction, but some of the stories might make you wonder if they are true. I assure you...they are. We're going to turn the world of media upside down, shake it, and see what falls out of its pockets. You will learn lots of ways to promote yourself and your business, if you have the fire. Welcome to my unauthorized autobiography. Members Reviews: Inspiring for any entrepreneur! If you could sum up Pocket Man in three words, what would they be? Scott provides an excellent blueprint for brand promotion! What was one of the most memorable moments of Pocket Man? Scott's clever response to a demand from corporate attorneys that he pay their client's attorney fees. It was epic! What about Kyle Brauchs performance did you like? Yes. However, after watching Scott Jordan on SharkTank and CNBC, he would've been able to narrate his own audio book. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yes. Yet, it provides too much quality information for one sitting. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/John-Carlton-Great-Copywriting-Changes-Everything-Audiobook/B003I97OCW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Very disappointing I was hoping there'd be useful info how to use copywriting to sell products, how to produce good copywriting, how to write well, etc. Unfortunately it's drab and useless stuff. The only and best advise is to pretend to sell something to someone, then write that down and clean it up. Dah... Badly in need of editing, which would eliminate pretty much eliminate the whole conversation. Waste of time. Interesting bio This is more of a biography but does underline basic precepts behind copywriting that I've read elsewhere... I would pursue more information by this person due to his huge success in this industry. Better on the 2nd reading, an inspiring story because he had started from nothing! not what expected This was more about his experience rather than application of techniques. Still quite interesting and worth listening to at least once. No information on copywriting. No valuable information other than to go read "Think & Grow Rich".. There is 0 content on actual copywriting. Im sure the interviewee has a great wealth of knowledge, but not in this audiobook. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/1000-Dollars-an-Idea-Audiobook/B002VA3LMQ Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: More Biography, Less Business I bought this book in a batch purchase of business books. I was looking for inspirations & ideas. To be honest, I got sucked in by the title, thinking it was a business book. Its a biography. Overall, there were some small learning moments for me, but most of my experience with this book felt like a man politely boasting of his very successful career. At first, I was discouraged by the amount of biography over business ideas. However, when I did a little homework on the book, I realized it was more of a bio so I adjusted my expectations. Then the book teased me with business "nuggets" admidst all of the stories. I say "teased" because a chapter will start off by telling a story that feels like a backdrop for a good business lesson. However, instead of pointing out how his struggles & successes can apply to you and me, the chapter would just end with an, "...and that's how I was successful with that business." Brilliant Biogaphy, Great Narration I found this book gave amazing insight into not only the life and times of Sam Wyly, but also into the very spirit of entrepreneurial America. The narrator, with this southern drawl makes it even more powerful. I really felt like I was sitting on Sam's porch listening to him recount his life. Sam's life itself is amazing in how many major events it touches on in American history, computer history, and in his change from starting out to confident billionaire. This is a book that I have been talking to my friends about and pondering for over a week now. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the topics of business and technology. A great book well narrated. I loved this audio book! High praise for Sam Wiley. The narrator read the book well. Worth listening It was bit boring on first few chapters due to over explanation of historical facts, but later part it was interesting and inspiring. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Reallionaire-Audiobook/B0036JSXBU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Reallionaire Subtitle: Nine Steps to Becoming Rich from the Inside Out Author: Farrah Gray Narrator: Cary Hite Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 11-24-09 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 32 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: A remarkable teenager who went from public assistance to a million dollar net worth shares his story and offers nine key principles for success. Farrah Gray is no ordinary teenager. He wears a suit and tie; he has an office on Wall Street and another one in Los Angeles...and he sold his first business at the age of 14 for more than a million dollars. He invested that money in a partnership with Inner City Broadcasting, one of the most prominent African-American owned businesses in the country, and now is heading the relaunch of their signature magazine, InnerCity. According to People magazine, Farrah is the only African-American teenager to rise from public assistance to a business mogul without being in entertainment or having a family connection. Reallionaire tells Farrahs extraordinary and touching story. When he was just six, Farrahs mother became seriously ill, prompting his decision to provide for this family, and he spent the first $50 he ever made taking them for a real sit-down dinner. At the age of eight, he founded his first business club. By 14, with a million dollars in his pocket, Farrah was well on his way to business success. Each stage of Farrahs progress is marked by one of the principles of success he learned along the way, creating not just an extraordinary story but also a step-by-step primer for others to create success in their own lives with honor, charity, and compassion. In the tradition of great motivators and leaders, this is both an instructional book and a story to inspire others to live life to the fullest. And listeners dont have to be interested in business to enjoy it. In fact, Farrah is a role model for everyone...just think of him as a Les Brown for the 21st century.

Title: 30 Women in Power Subtitle: Their Voices, Their Stories Author: Naina Lal Kidwai Narrator: Smita Singh Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 42 mins Language: English Release date: 01-01-17 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: 30 Women in Power carries the inimitable voices of Indian women who have been pioneers and led large organizations - in banking, law, the media, advertising, government services, health care, consulting, the fast-moving consumer goods sector and the not-for-profit space. In these narratives - told up close and personal - 30 of India's greatest women achievers speak of the guiding principles that have held them in good stead; the role models who have anchored them; the childhood influences that have shaped their values; and the interests outside the world of work that have revitalized them. Coming from all walks of life, these empowered women discuss their many successes and their dreams for the future. Yet they also venture to disclose the setbacks that have preceded hard-won conquests; the barriers, psychological or otherwise, that may have held them back at certain points; and the compromises they've had to make to reach the top. Through these honest and contemplative revelations, 30 women in power answer those questions that confront all working women - from how best to balance the personal and the professional to how to dismantle gender biases. Equally, the essayists consider seminal issues that concern every committed professional, man or woman: what are the qualities that define a leader? Where does one find a mentor? What are the ingredients in the recipe for success? Edited by business leader extraordinaire Naina Lal Kidwai, this topical and relevant book is a must-listen, not only for the lessons it provides but also for the intimate accounts it offers of lives powerfully lived. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Naina Lal Kidwai) Sun, 01 Jan 2017 13:28:33 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/30-Women-in-Power-Audiobook/B01N4EVP7R thebookvoice.com 11:42:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The King of California Subtitle: J.G. Boswell and the Making of a Secret American Empire Author: Mark Arax, Rick Wartzman Narrator: James Patrick Cronin Format: Unabridged Length: 19 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 06-02-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 63 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders Publisher's Summary: J. G. Boswell was the biggest farmer in America. He built a secret empire while thumbing his nose at nature, politicians, labor unions, and every journalist who ever tried to lift the veil on the ultimate "factory in the fields". The King of California is the previously untold account of how a Georgia slave-owning family migrated to California in the early 1920s, drained one of America 's biggest lakes in an act of incredible hubris and carved out the richest cotton empire in the world. Indeed, the sophistication of Boswell 's agricultural operation - from lab to field to gin - is unrivaled anywhere. Much more than a business story, this is a sweeping social history that details the saga of cotton growers who were chased from the South by the boll weevil and brought their black farmhands to California. It is a gripping read with cameos by a cast of famous characters, from Cecil B. DeMille to Cesar Chavez. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Mark Arax) Mon, 02 Jun 2014 07:01:27 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-King-of-California-Audiobook/B00KNAR39S thebookvoice.com 19:29:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Good book about the southern San Joaquin Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? This book is a must for residents of the southern San Joaquin Valley. It delves into the history of the Valley for the past 150 or so years, and covers the amazing transformation the Valley has seen, not always for the best. Would you listen to another book narrated by James Patrick Cronin? The narrator was very inconsistent with the pronunciations of last names and towns. He flips between the correct and incorrect pronunciation of several towns. For example "Delano" is correctly pronounced "De lane oh" but half the time he says "De lahn oh". Why it was not edited to have correct pronunciation all the way through is a mystery to me. His inflection was not always on the correct word in the sentence The narration was adequate but annoying. Any additional comments? I think the authors portrayed the big farmers fairly and accurately. Interesting story of California Ag history Max Arax and Rick Wartzman tell the story of a family that combined hard work, farming wisdom and political maneuvering to build a farming empire in the San Joaquin Valley of California. This is a well-written and well researched story of the largest privately owned farming operation in the United States. In my opinion the authors appear to have a negative opinion regarding large industrial style of farming. Jim Boswell moved to California from Georgia where the family had long been cotton growers. The boll weevil drove him out of Georgia to find land where cotton could grow. He worked as a cotton broker, until he saw the land of the southern San Joaquin Valley in California. He started buying land to farm, and then built Gins to process the cotton. He ruthlessly went after all the water rights he could obtain. As he grew into one of the largest farms his wife died. About 11 years after the death of his first wife Boswell married Ruth Chandler, Harry Chandlers daughter. The Chandler owned the Los Angeles times, large tracks of land in the San Fernando Valley, Tejon Ranch and other properties. The authors tell how Boswell bought land and drained Tulare Lake and started growing crops and buying more land. The Primary crops included Pima Cotton ( used by LL Bean, Hanes Co. Etc.) alfalfa hay, tomatoes, onions, wheat, safflower, then later almonds, and other varieties of nuts. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Hearsts-Audiobook/B002V0K6EC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Critic Reviews: "Brisk, unpretentious, opinionated." (Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Terrible reading Sorry, I have been to the Hearst Castle several times and was truly looking forward to this book. Unfortunately the reader is the worst I've ever heard. Do yourself a favor and listen to some excerpts first. He reads way to fast and with a completely dispassionate tone. Performance detracts from copy As a journalist, the story is fascinating and draws you in - such an interesting family and fascinating era(s). Oh to have worked during that time! The performance of the material is very distracting at times, though. Mr. Riggenbach needs to take a breath and some of his mispronunciations are distracting! Mundane and superficial This book manages to make an interesting topic thoroughly uninteresting--and if you stick with it, increasingly annoying. The problem is the modest literary ability (even with the help of a co-author) of William Randolph Hearst Jr., a basically boring, uninsightful account of what should have been a fascintating story, and a narrator who does nothing to improve the mundane and superficial narrative. A bad book by a spoiled rich kid who apparently learned very little worth knowing in his 80+ years of life. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Amazing-Millionaires-Volume-1-Audiobook/B0055P2C38 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

From the moment he bought the team in 1973 for $10 million, Steinbrenner's monomaniacal pursuit was to restore the most fabled franchise in baseball history to its former glory. Today the New York Yankees are worth more than $1 billion and are once again world champions. Award-winning sportswriter Bill Madden traces Steinbrenner from his early days in Cleveland through his years as a shipping magnate, a Nixon fund-raiser, and a champion horse breeder to the fateful moment when he bought the Yankees, even though his father disparaged George's desire to own a professional sports team as a "hobby". Over the next four decades, Steinbrenner's tumultuous reign included his epic battles with Billy Martin, Reggie Jackson, Dave Winfield, even beloved Yankee captain Derek Jeter. His ruthless and free-spending tactics made him a lightning rod for controversy, but they also paid off: Steinbrenner's Yankees have won seven championships and remain the gold standard in all sports. In the last few years, with his health declining, the Boss ceded control of the team to his sons, but not before lording over the team's historic transition from the House That Ruth Built to the House That George Built. Throughout his three decades of covering the Yankees, Bill Madden has cultivated hundreds of sources at every level in the organization, from the many managers and front-office personnel Steinbrenner has fired to the bat boys who are ever present in the locker room. All of them have colorful stories about the man with whom they have enjoyed a love-hate relationship, but it is the Boss himself whose voice rises above the rest. And when Steinbrenner decided to give his final print interview, he spoke to Madden to set the record straight on his extraordinary life and career. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Bill Madden) Tue, 11 May 2010 18:57:59 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Steinbrenner-Audiobook/B003JUR98Y thebookvoice.com 18:38:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: George Steinbrenner was indeed the Last Loin So misunderstood other teams would begged him to be their owner He was also Generous Not a biography of a life, but of a baseball owner Great book that details the Steinbrenner years of the Yankees. Not really a biography as little to nothing is discussed regarding his relationships with his wife and children. Only a brief description of his father and how that may have influenced his life. I enjoyed the book as a book centered on baseball and Steinbrenner's drive to win. Great narration. Interesting, yet Polarizing, Personality This is a 3.5-3.75 rating for me. I read this in print and listened to it on audio concurrently, due to the book's length. This was an interesting and comprehensive (sometimes a little too comprehensive in the amount of minute detail) look at Steinbrenner's life. There were some parts that seemed to skip around, or jump ahead in time without explaining how someone arrived at the Yankees, and some parts were a bit repetitive. Overall, though, Steinbrenner was an interesting personality and I enjoyed his story. He was quite polarizing, quick to anger and ridicule, yet generous with others. I also learned a few things about baseball that I didn't know before, such as how free agency started. Very Entertaining Book For ALL Fans of Baseball Any additional comments? Extremely well-written and narrated, I was especially impressed with its objectivity. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Not-My-Fathers-Son-Audiobook/B00OD1OGEI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Not My Father's Son Subtitle: A Family Memoir Author: Alan Cumming Narrator: Alan Cumming Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 10-30-14 Publisher: Canongate Books Ltd Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Alan Cumming grew up in the grip of a man who held his family hostage, someone who meted out violence with a frightening ease, who waged a silent war with himself that sometimes spilled over onto everyone around him. That man was Alan's father, Alex Cumming. Alex was the dark, enigmatic heart of Cumming family life. But he was not the only mystery. Alan's maternal grandfather, Tommy Darling, had disappeared to the Far East after the Second World War. The last time Alan's mother saw her father she was eight years old. When she was 13, the family was informed that he had died in an accidental shooting. Curious to explore this second mystery, Alan committed to filming an episode of the BBC's Who Do You Think You Are? Then out of the blue, his father, who Alan and his brother had not seen or spoken to for more than a decade, called. He had a secret he had to share, one that would shock his son to his very core and set in motion a journey that would change Alan's life forever. At times suspenseful, at times deeply moving, but always brave and honest, Not My Father's Son is a powerful story about embracing the best aspects of the past and triumphantly pushing the darkness aside. Members Reviews: This book is honest and touching This books explains abuse and the effects of abuse in the most honest way. It sheds light on the dark places. It exposes and reveal the unspoken in the most beautiful and strangely caring way. The scariest thing about abuse is the silence that follows. It's the silence that makes it commonplace and acceptable. Allan Cumming is a courageous man Wonderful A wonderful moving book that navigates the pain of abuse and the joy of love, life and family. I have loved Alan Cumming as a character actor I now love him as a person. A beautiful book. A really great book, from start to finish What a heartfelt story. Mary Darling - such a beautiful beautiful name. Thank you Alan. Something in this book for everyone This is a book for anyone who has grown up with an abusive parent, anyone who loves a mystery, all those researching their family history, and everyone who has despaired and found the way back or is still looking for the way back. And for anyone who just likes a well-written entertaining read, with tears and laughter along the way. Congratulations to Alan Cumming for so openly documenting the milestones in his life, from his harrowing childhood to his eventual discovery of what is best left in his past and what he can take into the future. The story is beautifully told, the then and now format perfect for unfolding the inevitably converging dramas, introducing new facts as they come to light in the now chapters, all the while maintaining the tension in the build up to the denouement. The book is all the better for being narrated by the author who conveys all the emotions associated with the story, and his soft Scots accent is delightful. Thanks, Alan, I suspect a lot of readers will be inspired by your story. Enjoyable I really enjoyed this book. Alan's voice is very easy to listen to and as I didn't know much about his life, I was surprised at each new chapter. I only really knew him from The Good Wife https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Phantom-of-Fifth-Avenue-Audiobook/B00K87LRES Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: The Phantom of Fifth Avenue Subtitle: The Mysterious Life and Scandalous Death of Heiress Huguette Clark Author: Meryl Gordon Narrator: Bernadette Dunne Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs and 40 mins Language: English Release date: 05-27-14 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 144 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Born in 1906, Huguette Clark grew up in her family's 121-room Beaux Arts mansion in New York and was one of the leading celebrities of her day. Her father, William Andrews Clark, was a copper magnate, the second richest man in America, and not above bribing his way into the Senate. Huguette attended the coronation of King George V. And at 22, with a personal fortune of $50 million to her name, she married a Princeton man and childhood friend, William MacDonald Gower. Two-years later the couple divorced. After a series of failed romances, Huguette began to withdraw from society - first living with her mother in a kind of Grey Gardens isolation, then as a modern-day Miss Havisham, spending her days in a vast apartment overlooking Central Park, eating crackers and watching The Flintstones with only servants for company. All her money and all her real estate could not protect her in her later life from being manipulated by shady hangers-on and hospitals that were only too happy to admit (and bill) a healthy woman. But what happened to Huguette that turned a vivacious, young socialite into a recluse? And what was her life like inside that gilded, copper cage? bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Meryl Gordon) Tue, 27 May 2014 10:39:13 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Phantom-of-Fifth-Avenue-Audiobook/B00K87LRES thebookvoice.com 13:40:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: The Rich Are Different This is the story of a wealthy heiress who shunned the spotlight and used her vast resources to maintain the illusions that kept her delicate psychology intact. The Clarks were the Kardashians of their day: famous for being famous, the minutiae of their lives scrutinized by the media. People are as interested to find out what happened to Huguette Clark as they would be if Kourtney or Kim Kardashian suddenly decided to hide from the public eye for decades. I have three criticisms of the book: First, in an effort to connect far-flung events and explain why Huguette Clark became a recluse, the book suffers from too many time jumps that don't really add much to the story. Second, the quotes from people who knew Huguette don't add much to the story, either. It's possible that, working from historical documents, the author didn't have much choice in regard to quotes. But even the people she interviewed in person come across as not having anything interesting to say. Last, too much of the story focuses on the early life of Huguette's father, his first wife, and the children from that marriage. The book doesn't really find its stride until well over halfway through, when it begins to examine the forces in Huguette's young adult life that drove her to become a recluse. In summary: this book had the opportunity to delve into Huguette's unusual psychology, and the psychology of recluses in general. There are hints throughout of psychological analyses, but no real focus on them. So, ultimately, the book left me disappointed. The OTHER Huguette Clark Book I reviewed "Empty Mansions" as well, since I read both. This book achieved something that the other did not - it brought us into Huguette's world. She takes the reader into her early unfulfilled romances and shows the connection between the dolls, dollhouses, painting lessons, photography, frame-by-frame cartoons and how, put together, they became art. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Diana-Im-Going-to-Be-Me-Audiobook/B076R2Z57K Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Five Stars Great reading. Diana, I'm Going to be Me A small very quick read. Approx. 84 pages of large type and generously spaced. I expected a book of memorable quotes, which there are some, however there are mostly comments made by Diana when she was interviewed at various times in her life. I like most books on Diana and have many. Ok but tedious So much repeating. Nothing new and awfully written. What a waste of an hour. Would not buy or read again. Perhaps better as a magazine? A collection of Diana quotes. I'm a Diana fan, but I think this could have been available as a magazine. No photographs. Not sure it's worth the $8.95. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Love-Lust-Faking-It-Audiobook/B0045VQ2FW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

In Belly Laughs, Jenny McCarthy told you what you could really expect when you're expecting. In Baby Laughs and Life Laughs, she gave you the unfiltered ups and downs of motherhood and marriage. Now, in Love, Lust & Faking It, the inveterate truth teller turns the lights on for a funny, often poignant, and no-holds-barred look at the essence of relationships: love and sex. Jenny explores the intensity of first love, introducing us to Tony, the boy of her teenage dreams, and Tubby, her dirty, sexy, stuffed teddy bear. She takes us on a whirlwind tour of the world of aphrodisiacs and fetishes, explains the importance of playing doctor and other nice and naughty fantasies, and gives thanks for the pleasures of chocolate. And she sets the story straight on STDs, man junk, and lady bits, why we really cheat, why women are master manipulators, the virtues of sex with the lights off, the power of a "loving no", the satisfaction of the perfect booty call, and so much more. Filled with humorous stories about her own outrageous exploits - from becoming a Playboy Miss October to the pain of getting a discount boob job to meeting Brad Pitt - as well as the lessons she's learned from family, friends, and fans, Love, Lust & Faking It takes on a subject the sex symbol, mother, television star, comedian, and divorcée can be trusted to examine with nothing but unvarnished honesty and earthy humor. Throughout, Jenny reminds us to aim higher, believe in true love, and, most of all, be kind to ourselves. And to have lots of fun and sex - without faking it. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Jenny McCarthy) Tue, 05 Oct 2010 08:03:23 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Love-Lust-Faking-It-Audiobook/B0045VQ2FW thebookvoice.com 05:32:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Read the Book for Inspiration and Motivation I chose this book because I was curious about the legendary Candis Cayne's lifethe book does a great job of covering that but I got so much more out of it in the end. The book combines Candis's life along with a style guide and a how-to-manual for handling life with a smile and a good attitude. I should point out that I am a man, yet I was captivated by every chapter. I feel inspired by her story and I'm motivated to step up my style game (from inside and out). I highly recommend this book, especially if you are looking for more positivity in your life. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Finding-Everett-Ruess-Audiobook/B005D7OEIY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Finding Everett Ruess Subtitle: The Life and Unsolved Disappearance of a Legendary Wilderness Explorer Author: David Roberts Narrator: Arthur Morey Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 07-19-11 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 94 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Finding Everett Ruess is the definitive biography of the artist, writer, and eloquent celebrator of the wilderness whose bold solo explorations of the American West and mysterious disappearance in the Utah desert at age 20 have earned him a large and devoted cult following. More than 75 years after his vanishing, Ruess stirs the kinds of passion and speculation accorded such legendary doomed American adventurers as Into the Wilds Chris McCandless and Amelia Earhart. I have not tired of the wilderness; rather I enjoy its beauty and the vagrant life I lead, more keenly all the time. I prefer the saddle to the street car and the star sprinkled sky to a roof, the obscure and difficult trail, leading into the unknown, to any paved highway, and the deep peace of the wild to the discontent bred by cities. So Everett Ruess wrote in his last letter to his brother. And earlier, in a valedictory poem, Say that I starved; that I was lost and weary; That I was burned and blinded by the desert sun; Footsore, thirsty, sick with strange diseases; Lonely and wet and cold . . . but that I kept my dream!" Wandering alone with burros and pack horses through California and the Southwest for five years in the early 1930s, on voyages lasting as long as ten months, Ruess also became friends with photographers Edward Weston and Dorothea Lange, swapped prints with Ansel Adams, took part in a Hopi ceremony, learned to speak Navajo, and was among the first "outsiders" to venture deeply into what was then (and to some extent still is) largely a little-known wilderness. When he vanished without a trace in November 1934, Ruess left behind thousands of pages of journals, letters, and poems, as well as more than a hundred watercolor paintings and blockprint engravings. A Ruess mystique, initiated by his parents but soon enlarged by readers and critics who, struck by his remarkable connection to the wild, likened him to a fledgling John Muir. Today, the Ruess cult has more adherentsand more passionate onesthan at any time in the seven-plus decades since his disappearance. By now, Everett Ruess is hailed as a paragon of solo exploration, while the mystery of his death remains one of the greatest riddles in the annals of American adventure. David Roberts began probing the life and death of Everett Ruess for National Geographic Adventure magazine in 1998. Finding Everett Ruess is the result of his personal journeys into the remote areas explored by Ruess, his interviews with oldtimers who encountered the young vagabond and with Ruesss closest living relatives, and his deep immersion in Ruesss writings and artwork. It is an epic narrative of a driven and acutely perceptive young adventurers expeditions into the wildernesses of landscape and self-discovery, as well as an absorbing investigation of the continuing mystery of his disappearance. In this definitive account of Ruess's extraordinary life and the enigma of his vanishing, David Roberts eloquently captures Ruess's tragic genius and ongoing fascination. Critic Reviews: "Everett Lives! If not in a desert canyon, then at least among the pages where David Roberts brings the young man's life and legend all together: his writings and art, his kinship with nature, his love for adventure and beauty, and the yet-evolving mystery of his disappearance. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (David Roberts) Tue, 19 Jul 2011 02:12:58 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Finding-Everett-Ruess-Audiobook/B005D7OEIY thebookvoice.com 13:08:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Dispatches from the Edge Author: Anderson Cooper Narrator: Anderson Cooper Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 05-16-06 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 430 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: After growing up on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Cooper felt a magnetic pull toward the unknown. If he could keep moving, and keep exploring, he felt he could stay one step ahead of his past, including the fame surrounding his mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, and the tragic early deaths of his father and older brother. But recently, during the course of one extraordinary, tumultuous year, it became impossible for him to continue to separate his work from his life. From the tsunami in Sri Lanka to the war in Iraq to the starvation in Niger and ultimately to Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and Mississippi, Cooper gives us a firsthand glimpse of the devastation that takes place. Writing with vivid memories of his childhood and early career as a roving correspondent, Cooper reveals for the first time how deeply affected he has been by the wars, disasters, and tragedies he has witnessed, and why he continues to be drawn to some of the most perilous places on earth. Striking, heartfelt, and utterly engrossing, Dispatches from the Edge is an unforgettable memoir that takes us behind the scenes of the cataclysmic events of our age and allows us to see them through the eyes of one of America's most trusted, fearless, and pioneering reporters. Editorial Reviews: Anderson Cooper has a pleasant, distinctive, and recognizable voice, but that's not the reason he's effective as the narrator of this memoir of war, disasters, and survival. The book is a compelling listen because Cooper is a talented writer, filling his text with riveting images and compelling phrases. The images speak for themselves. But Cooper's narration is not without energy and emotion. He parcels them out, using them for effect at just the right moments. Cooper moves effectively between reporting on the cataclysmic events of (from the tsunami through Hurricane Katrina) and reflecting on his childhood and early professional career. The audio concludes with an interesting interview with the author. Critic Reviews: "Cooper is an intelligent, passionate man."

(Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Dispatches from the Inner Self Like many highly successful people, CNN reporter Anderson Cooper is driven to compensate for inner conflicts. Unlike many successful people, he reveals this discord in a best selling book. Some of these conflicts are fully disclosed, such as putting himself in dangerous situations to compensate for two childhood tragedies. Others are superficially alluded to, inviting the reader to do some interpreting. Cooper's book, "Dispatches from the Edge" at first glance appears to be an autobiography. But only a small part of his life is covered in any detail. In fact, he claims to have forgotten most of his childhood before age ten. He clearly remembers the death of his father when Cooper was ten and the suicide of his older brother when Cooper was 21. Maybe too clearly. Cooper tells us that he has few vices except for one: he's a workaholic. He enjoys the company of many associates but has no really close friends. He can't relax and is in his prime on the chase for a story. If the story is a war, famine or natural disaster where he could be killed, all the better. All of this culminates as he reports on the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina. Seeing how people cope in the worst situations gave Cooper some insight into his inner self. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Iron-Man-Audiobook/B00939RD5O Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

I READ THE BOOK, IRON MAN: THE CAL RIPKEN, JR. STORY BY HARVEY ROSENFELD AS PART OF A SCHOOL READING ASSIGNMENT. IT WAS A PRETTY GOOD BOOK FILLED WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE LIFE AND BASEBALL CAREER OF CAL RIPKEN, JR. IT TALKED ABOUT HIS EARLY CHILDHOOD AND WHEN HE PLAYED BALL AS A CHILD AND WENT ALL THE WAY THROUGH HIS PROFESSIONAL CAREER UP TO 1995. IT HAD AN INTRODUCTION IN IT WRITTEN BY HIS FATHER, CAL, SR.

Title: The Kid Subtitle: The Immortal Life of Ted Williams Author: Ben Bradlee Jr. Narrator: Dave Mallow Format: Unabridged Length: 35 hrs and 13 mins Language: English Release date: 12-04-13 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 70 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: At long last, the epic biography Ted Williams deserves - and that his fans have been waiting for. Williams was the best hitter in baseball history. His batting average of .406 in 1941 has not been topped since, and no player who has hit more than 500 home runs has a higher career batting average. Those totals would have been even higher if Williams had not left baseball for nearly five years in the prime of his career to serve as a Marine pilot in WWII and Korea. He hit home runs farther than any player before him - and traveled a long way himself, as Ben Bradlee, Jr.'s grand biography reveals. Born in 1918 in San Diego, Ted would spend most of his life disguising his Mexican heritage. During his 22 years with the Boston Red Sox, Williams electrified crowds across America - and shocked them, too: His notorious clashes with the press and fans threatened his reputation. Yet while he was a God in the batter's box, he was profoundly human once he stepped away from the plate. His ferocity came to define his troubled domestic life. While baseball might have been straightforward for Ted Williams, life was not. The Kid is biography of the highest literary order, a thrilling and honest account of a legend in all his glory and human complexity. In his final at-bat, Williams hit a home run. Bradlee's marvelous book clears the fences, too. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. Critic Reviews: "Bradlee's sumptuous biography details an extraordinary American life while showing us how that life morphed into legend. The Kid reads like an epic, starting before Williams's birth in 1918, outlining his Anglo and Mexican heritage growing up in Southern California, and continuing after his death in 2002 to the present. Bradlee has given us the fullest exploration yet of his monumental ego and the best explanation for his vast inferiority complex....The book is packed with great moments." (Boston Globe) "What distinguishes Bradlee's The Kid from the rest of Williams lit is, its size and the depth of its reporting. Bradlee seemingly talked to everyone, not just baseball people but Williams's fishing buddies, old girlfriends, his two surviving wives and both of his daughters, and he had unparalleled access to Williams family archives. His account does not materially alter our picture of Williams the player, but fills it in with much greater detail and nuance....Bradlee's expansiveness enables his book to transcend the familiar limits of the sports bio and to become instead a hard-to-put-down account of a fascinating American life. It's a story about athletic greatness but also about the perils of fame and celebrity, the corrosiveness of money and the way the cycle of familial resentment and disappointment plays itself out generation after generation." (New York Times Book Review) "Superb....Ted Williams hated what he considered invasions of his privacy, but perfectionist that he was, he would probably have to concede that the work ethic that underpins The Kid is exemplary. Mr. Bradlee, who was a reporter and editor at the Boston Globe for 25 years, spent 10 years researching and writing this book; he interviewed about 600 people and seems to have read everything about and by Williams. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Ben Bradlee Jr.) Wed, 04 Dec 2013 18:14:17 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Kid-Audiobook/B00H2607LC thebookvoice.com 35:13:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Born in 1918 in San Diego, Ted would spend most of his life disguising his Mexican heritage. During his 22 years with the Boston Red Sox, Williams electrified crowds across America - and shocked them, too: His notorious clashes with the press and fans threatened his reputation. Yet while he was a God in the batter's box, he was profoundly human once he stepped away from the plate. His ferocity came to define his troubled domestic life. While baseball might have been straightforward for Ted Williams, life was not. The Kid is biography of the highest literary order, a thrilling and honest account of a legend in all his glory and human complexity. In his final at-bat, Williams hit a home run. Bradlee's marvelous book clears the fences, too. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. Critic Reviews: "Bradlee's sumptuous biography details an extraordinary American life while showing us how that life morphed into legend. The Kid reads like an epic, starting before Williams's birth in 1918, outlining his Anglo and Mexican heritage growing up in Southern California, and continuing after his death in 2002 to the present. Bradlee has given us the fullest exploration yet of his monumental ego and the best explanation for his vast inferiority complex....The book is packed with great moments." (Boston Globe) "What distinguishes Bradlee's The Kid from the rest of Williams lit is, its size and the depth of its reporting. Bradlee seemingly talked to everyone, not just baseball people but Williams's fishing buddies, old girlfriends, his two surviving wives and both of his daughters, and he had unparalleled access to Williams family archives. His account does not materially alter our picture of Williams the player, but fills it in with much greater detail and nuance....Bradlee's expansiveness enables his book to transcend the familiar limits of the sports bio and to become instead a hard-to-put-down account of a fascinating American life. It's a story about athletic greatness but also about the perils of fame and celebrity, the corrosiveness of money and the way the cycle of familial resentment and disappointment plays itself out generation after generation." (New York Times Book Review) "Superb....Ted Williams hated what he considered invasions of his privacy, but perfectionist that he was, he would probably have to concede that the work ethic that underpins The Kid is exemplary. Mr. Bradlee, who was a reporter and editor at the Boston Globe for 25 years, spent 10 years researching and writing this book; he interviewed about 600 people and seems to have read everything about and by Williams.

Title: The Kid Subtitle: The Immortal Life of Ted Williams Author: Ben Bradlee Jr. Narrator: Dave Mallow Format: Unabridged Length: 35 hrs and 13 mins Language: English Release date: 12-04-13 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 70 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: At long last, the epic biography Ted Williams deserves - and that his fans have been waiting for. Williams was the best hitter in baseball history. His batting average of .406 in 1941 has not been topped since, and no player who has hit more than 500 home runs has a higher career batting average. Those totals would have been even higher if Williams had not left baseball for nearly five years in the prime of his career to serve as a Marine pilot in WWII and Korea.

Title: The Second Half Author: Roy Keane, Roddy Doyle Narrator: Roy Keane, Stephen Hogan Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 10-09-14 Publisher: Orion Publishing Group Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 22 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Narrated by Stephen Hogan and introduced by Roy Keane. In an 18-year playing career for Cobh Ramblers, Nottingham Forest, and Manchester United (under Sir Alex Ferguson) and Celtic, Roy Keane dominated every midfield he led to glory. Aggressive and highly competitive, his attitude helped him to excel as captain of Manchester United from 1997 until his departure in 2005. He played at an international level for nearly all of his career, representing the Republic of Ireland over 14 years, mainly as team captain, until an incident with national coach Mick McCarthy resulted in Keane's walk-out from the 2002 World Cup. Since retiring as a player, Keane has managed Sunderland and Ipswich and become a notably contrarian pundit for ITV. He is assistant (to Martin O'Neill) manager of the Ireland team. The TV analyst reflects the manager, the player, and the man himself, the unique Roy Keane - Keano. As part of a tiny elite of football players, Roy Keane has lived and experienced what very few people could ever imagine. His status as one of football's greatest stars is undisputed, but what of the challenges beyond the pitch? How did he succeed in coming to terms with life as a former Manchester United and Ireland leader and champion, reinvent himself as a broadcaster, and cope with the psychological struggles this entailed? This book is a personal odyssey, a blend of anecdote and reflection which re-evaluates the meaning of success. In following his personal struggle to reinvent himself, confronting a few demons along the way, The Second Half blends memoir and motivational writing in a manner which both disquiets and reassures in Roy Keane's original voice, in a stunning collaboration brilliantly captured with Man Booker Prize-winning writer Roddy Doyle. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Roy Keane) Thu, 09 Oct 2014 21:59:17 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Second-Half-Audiobook/B00O9G09Y8 thebookvoice.com 09:04:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: keano! A great listen, was fantastic to hear the story behind many of the situations the media may have twisted in the past. What a great character, 100% recommend people listen to this. Overall it was OK. I was looking forward to reading this book. It starts of and it was fantastic I was looking forward to the next time I could listen. From the middle to the end it was up and down. I wanted to finish it but the story was kinda boring. In the second half there was a lot of talking about matches Roy had as manager at Sunderland that I felt was filler. I didn't care for this and felt it was not needed in such detail. I finished the book and didn't hate it. I am neutral on it. I hoped for more. Didn't want it to end! What did you like most about The Second Half? I like the insight, a few things I didn't know. But most of all the honesty. What did you like best about this story? I liked listening to Roy's take on life after Manchester United. His reflections on his time at Sunderland and what he learned at Ipswich. Most of all his contentment and enjoyment as No.2 for Ireland. What does Roy Keane and Stephen Hogan bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you had only read the book? I have to say I would have preferred that Roy read the whole book. Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? Laughed most of the time - it's a great story. I enjoyed his achievement at Sunderland. Any additional comments? He's simply a good bloke. Complex character, flawed like everyone. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Or-Is-That-Just-Me-Audiobook/B003R0TFXS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Humor from Hammy Any additional comments? This book is filled with interesting little tales from Hammond. Each one funnier than the last. It very much helps that it it narrated by the Hamster, you get the full feel of his sarcasem and wit that may have been lost if read by someone else. A great light read/listen that is easy to pick up/put down whenever the mood strikes. Very witty, very Hammond. Enjoyable, funny, insightful. wish it were longer Richard Hammond is clever and funny, and all his books are also. he shares experiences from TG and his personal life candidly, making it impossible to not relate and laugh. just wish it went on longer, could listen to his stories for days! Gotta love English humor. If you love Top Gear and like the presenters, you'll like this. As expected Richard Hammond. Nice bloke and tells a great story. Just a few stories from the hamster himself. It is a fun, short listen, most of which are very enjoyable, and uterrly hilarious. certainly worth my credit. My only gripe is the editing. I'd prefer unabridged but it's still great. Good book but shorter then the others by Richard Would you consider the audio edition of Or Is That Just Me? to be better than the print version? Yes, by all means because of the narration. Would you be willing to try another book from Richard Hammond? Why or why not? Yes i would, I like his humor and his reading. What about Richard Hammonds performance did you like? Voice and the way he tells you the story first hand. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I laughed a few times. Any additional comments? Good book, but the other books he has is better, On the Edge and As you do. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Scandals-of-Classic-Hollywood-Audiobook/B00NO5CXQ2 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Where does Scandals of Classic Hollywood rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Well, this is an odd question because no two books are alike. However, for this particular genre - Hollywood expose, this is an extraordinally well written book. What was one of the most memorable moments of Scandals of Classic Hollywood? One of the most memorable moments from the book was the Clark Gable/Carole Lombard narrative. It was surprisingly touching and, of course, very tragic. What about Romy Nordlingers performance did you like? It was a bit frantic at times but not unpleasant overall. The narration style seemed to fit the time period and subject matter covered. Whats the most interesting tidbit youve picked up from this book? Facts about how prevailing social norms in the country influenced what could make or break a Hollywood star and why. This was fascinating and made me contextualize it in today's celeb obsessed culture. Any additional comments? This book greatly and pleasantly surprised me with its intellectual, provocative examination of stardom, fame and infamy when it comes to Hollywood and public consumption. I expected a gauzy, bawdy romp through the scandals of yesteryear and got something much better instead. There are scandals aplenty but they are offered up in a framework of the psychosocial, religious, political and historical context of the country in real time. The struggle of America to come to terms with sex, gender, race and many other defining issues informs the narratives found within the book at every turn. What a fascinating read as a result! My only complaint is the fact that the author clearly cherry picked her scandals and often chose to treat some incidents with kid gloves. Still, I highly recommend this book. Great Listen I enjoy watching movies from the eras covered in this audiobook. The information was VERY interesting & shed light on Hollywood of yesterday. Riveting journey A beautifully written book with wonderful narration by Romy Nordlinger who added so much with her sultry but emotional voice. I was very moved listening to it and can't wait to share it with various friends who know nothing about some of these tragic and brilliant heroes and heroines. I didn't want it to end! Don't waist your money. This book was done with tabloid research. I have read better. It told me nothing I did not already know. How can I get my money and time back. Nothing new. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Him-Me-Audiobook/B00FN4U9AY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: The most fun you can have with your clothes on! Would you listen to Him & Me again? Why? I have already started to re-listen, as I missed some bits as I was laughing so much. What about Jack Whitehall and Michael Whitehall s performance did you like? I have no doubt that this would be a great book to read, but it is best enjoyed as an audiobook. The real enjoyment comes from the many asides, sighs, occasional spats but overall deep affection between the father and son. Any additional comments? I very rarely 'review' books on any sites, but this one is kept me amused for several hours and I received several strange looks as I sat at the traffic lights laughing so hard I was almost crying. The best book I have listened to this year. What a unique and refreshing change ! At last, a book that is written and narrated with humour and intelligence. The interplay between Jack and his father is entertaining largely because they are equally matched. Such a refreshing idea to have a memoir told from the perspectives of two generations. I already knew of Jack's comedic abilities from his TV appearances but knew nothing about father, Michael Whitehall - who is a wonderful character with a very droll delivery and a wealth of ancedotes. I hope they will consider writing another book together - and might include chapters from Jack's mother and siblings and even some of the celebrities that Micheal has managed over the years. Nigel Havers.... what a additional treat that would be ! sooooo brilliant Where does Him & Me rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? jack and his dad read this book brilliantly and it sounds more like they are having a chat and not reading. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Thirsty-Confessions-of-a-Fame-Whore-Audiobook/B077BHXGKB Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Joel Creasey gave his first stand-up performance at 17. Now he's a comedy superstar, performing sell-out events in Australia and around the world.

From his school days and growing up gay in suburban Australia to meeting his idols and what life is like on the road now, Thirsty is full of his most hilarious, heartbreaking, outrageous, scandalous, incredible and most personal stories. Members Reviews: Best Comedy Life Story Ever Written! Joels comedy prowess is far beyond his years. Almost every line in this book has a laugh or giggle in it - masterful! Im not even gay but loved loved loved his brutally full frontal self deprecating assault on back door humor. Unashamedly vulnerable about weakness and unashamedly boastful about his strengths - this journey of only 27 years never gives up. Hurry up and turn 50 Joel as I cant wait for the next edition (although that would be many years of Botox). Well done Australian super hero for the next generation! What a read!! If like me youve seen this blonde ambition on the soap box and immediately gone, wait he can read? Well yes! Joel has written an incredible memoir that is not only hilarious, but touches me in places that my mother has told me previously not to touch. He is insightful, hilarious, borderline psychotic and above all he is a human being who is so in touch with reality he captures his audience each and every time. Best autobiography audiobook Ive listened to. This audiobook was simply the greatest. I dont think it wouldve been nearly as good reading it as you wouldnt get Joel himself narrating it to you. It was a 5 star performance, read so well and his intonations and timing make him a comic genius. His stories are hilarious and I snorted with laughter on many occasions, and just didnt want it to end. Im now a big fan and will be purchasing tickets to his next show. Wholeheartedly recommend this :) Fabulous As soon as I heard this book was released I anxiously awaited to hear it was to be released as an audiobook. Naturally Joel Creasey gave a stellar performance, why wouldnt he, its his book? A very entertaining book. Is it naff to say that Joel sounds like a lovely boy? Id recommend the book to others and await his next tour. Loved every second of this book! Joel is hilarious! His stories had me laughing out loud. I want to listen to it all over again! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Dinner-with-DiMaggio-Audiobook/B06XXP49CV Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Dinner with DiMaggio Subtitle: Memories of an American Hero Author: Rock Positano, John Positano, Francis Ford Coppola - foreword Narrator: Fred Sanders Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 2 mins Language: English Release date: 05-09-17 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 18 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: The real Joe DiMaggio, remembered by the man who knew him best in the last decade of his life - candid and little-known stories about icons from Ted Williams, Lou Gehrig, and his Yankees teammates on the field to Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and other great celebrities off the field. Dr. Rock Positano, an internationally renowned foot specialist in New York City, was introduced to Joe DiMaggio by the dean of New York sports writers, Bill Gallo, in 1990. The Yankee Clipper's career-ending heel spur injury and botched surgeries brought them together. During the time Dr. Positano successfully treated the Yankee Clipper, a friendship slowly developed. As Dr. Positano would learn, DiMaggio moved very carefully and deliberately. Dinner with DiMaggio follows the story of their friendship from its starstruck beginning through all its highs and lows over the next decade. Forty years younger than DiMaggio, Dr. Positano became a surrogate son at a time when his actual son was suffering from substance-abuse problems. Positano's accounts of their times together reveal DiMaggio's many rituals and quirks: the same meals at the same restaurants, the same pals in New York and Florida, jacket and tie everywhere. At the pinnacle of his fame, DiMaggio had learned to be guarded and carefully managed his image and private life. As his trust in his young friend grew, DiMaggio opened up about Marilyn but also about his first wife, Dorothy Arnold, the mother of his son and the real love of his life. The Yankee Clipper knew everyone, and Positano shares never-before-told stories of famous people DiMaggio admired and those he didn't. This is DiMaggio as he really was: sometimes cranky and calculating but more often charming, generous, and loyal and always big-hearted when it came to kids. The stories and experiences he shared with Rock Positano comprise an intimate portrait of one of the great stars of baseball and one of the icons of the 20th century. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Rock Positano) Tue, 09 May 2017 08:06:05 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Dinner-with-DiMaggio-Audiobook/B06XXP49CV thebookvoice.com 11:02:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: The Control Freak and the Sycophant Would you try another book from the authors and/or Fred Sanders? No Would you listen to another book narrated by Fred Sanders? Yes What else would you have wanted to know about the authorss life? Nothing, thank you Any additional comments? Unless you are a baseball fanatic, a devoted Yankee fan, or someone who gushes over wall to wall celeb gossip, this book can be a long read. The principal is shown to be an uncaring tyrant toward the author and people around him. The author is so full of his unexpected role as DiMaggio's Boswell that he let's himself be humiliated time and again with just the slightest resistance. There's plenty of baseball lore, and juicy gossip about Marilyn Monroe, Sinatra, the Kennedys and a raft of politicos. But it gets tiring after a while. No--- dont do it. Not about dimaggio but rather about the author. Simply not worth the time nor agony to listen.

Members Reviews: Just Right! I needed a break from the book I am currently reading so when I came across this one I thought it would fit the bill nicely: short, informative and entertaining. It was perfect for me; detailed enough to be interesting throughout, but not too heavy on politics, dates, treaties, and wars. Im a Royalphile and Ive read many bios on the Royal Family, but so far none about Queen Mary and George V so I especially enjoyed the section that covered their reign. As for the rest of the group, although I cant say I learned anything new, I was engaged all the way through since I am naturally so drawn to the topic. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/147-Things-Audiobook/B074ZKGX6C Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Its interesting and fun. Jim is hilarious and extremely informative. Bloody Brilliant! Over the last day I have listened to every second of 147 things ... minus thing number 64 (or there abouts) about amputation of fingers due to my queesy stomach over this exact thing! Jim has written a book that I can imagine would appeal to everyone, every age (I'm 29) and from anywhere. The facts and anecdotes bring about a full range of emotions, over arched by my pure fascination of what the next 'thing' was going to be. What a brilliant, brilliant book. Thanks Jim! Knowledge of the universe Fantastic read, including anecdotes from Jims life and personal experiences along with many great facts of literally everything the universe has to offer. Even from listening to the audio book I've learnt so many new and quirky facts that I can pass on. I've even told the story about the kangaroos and how the joeys feed on the mothers, spoiler alert, on a night out to break the ice. Highly recommend a read. So much hard work put in by Jim and you can really tell how passionate he is about what's he written. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Ava-Gardner-The-Secret-Conversations-Audiobook/B00DUW6WGG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

The book is really more of a book about the interviewing of Ava Gardner, than it is a book about Ava Gardner herself. The author's approach is to recount in dialog the series of interviews he did with Ava, before she called the whole thing off (presumably under the direction and money of Frank.) The content is not as candid as it proclaims, but there is enough Hollywood dirt to have made it interesting. Also, you learn about early Hollywood and country girl Ava. Secret and Unapproved Any additional comments? At the end of the book we find out that Ava worked with Peter Evans on her memoirs but backed out on the book when she learned that Frank Sinatra had sued Evans sometime before Ava hired Evans and Evans had not told her. After Evans death, people worked with his notes and put together this book. This rather explains why half the book is Evans 'complaining' about Ava calling him at 3 am and their arguing about including her cuss words. Evans has a whining tone and Ava appears careful. This book is probably unfair to them both. A bit later, Ava wrote her own book "Ava, My Story" and it is immensely better. Her own book has lots of color about Hollywood and its stars and moguls and delightful color about herself, written by her and including chapters by some of the people around her. Just to mention one big difference: in the Evans books, Evans has Ava declare she only slept with the Spanish matador once. In her own book, Ava relates a detailed love affair. Also, there is very little in the Evans book about Sinatra but a lot in Ava's book. By the way, she loved all her husbands. Interesting, but one-note narration What did you love best about Ava Gardner: The Secret Conversations? Ava! Love her conversations and monologues! Did William Hope do a good job differentiating all the characters? How? No. His worst offense, however, was making Ava sound like a falling-down drunk in EVERY line she spoke. Even if she had been drunk in all of her conversations with the author, it gets irritating and boring listening to a character who NEVER varies her pace and slurs every sentence. She sounds, in this version, like a man in drag. That gets old fast. It also is vaguely misogynistic. A book about an Interview! Is there anything you would change about this book? It's just too long and dull. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Mastermind-How-Dave-Brailsford-Reinvented-the-Wheel-Audiobook/B00EAVXAHU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Mastermind: How Dave Brailsford Reinvented the Wheel Subtitle: Sport Shorts Author: Richard Moore Narrator: Richard Moore Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 32 mins Language: English Release date: 08-16-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Dave Brailsford has spearheaded the track cycling revolution in Britain, helping turn the nation into a superpower. He is also head of Team Sky and oversaw Bradley Wiggins' victory at the 2012 Tour de France. But who is the man behind the mask? This is a portrait of one of the most enigmatic presences in world sport; an exploration of his background, a unique insight into the formation of his methodology and an analysis of how he has forged a new path in a sport riven with controversy. Editorial Reviews: Coach Dave Brailsford has been responsible for bringing British cycling to world dominance, overseeing victories in the 2012 and 2013 Tour de France.

Members Reviews: Brilliant short book This was an excellent short insight into the man and the hidden mechanics of the team. Well worth a listen. Just a story I was hoping for some profound knowledge sharing but for an hour long story which almost seemed like abstracts of a longer and better book. A bit disappointing A subject I am completely interested in, about a man I greatly admire... and it was I am sorry to say a pretty dreary listen... delivered with almost zero enthusiasm. Brief and lite Not really that interesting and actually quite forgettable. I would recommend Chris Bordmans book if you're after a fascinating look at the world of cycling and marginal gains! interesting if short story Brief but interesting and informative listen. Not the most enthralling narrative, but good value https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Madden-Audiobook/B00AR1I9KK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Madden Subtitle: A Biography Author: Bryan Burwell Narrator: Mark Moseley Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 12-21-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 25 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Celebrities Publisher's Summary: Several years after his playing career was cut short by injury before it had a chance to really begin, John Madden was hired as an assistant coach by the Oakland Raiders, one of professional football's most iconoclastic franchises. Two years later he was named the team's head coach and proceeded to lead the Raiders to five championship games in his first seven seasons. Following years of heartbreaking losses in some of history's most memorable games including the Immaculate Reception against the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1972 Madden and the Raiders finally reached the mountaintop, winning Super Bowl XI and giving Oakland its first title. One year later, Madden abruptly left the game he loved, retiring with the second-best winning percentage in NFL history. Had John Madden's football career ended there, his life would still be remarkable. The fact that it was only just beginning has made him an American icon and a beloved legend to millions of fans across the globe. In Madden, longtime sports columnist Bryan Burwell has written the first comprehensive biography of this living legend. From his days as a star athlete in Daly City, California, Madden was driven to succeed, a trait that helped him persevere during his tumultuous years with the Raiders under Al Davis and compelled him to try his hand at broadcasting after his coaching career was over. Madden's incredible football knowledge, down-home sensibilities, and tireless work ethic made him arguably the most popular sports analyst in any sport and led to a long and storied career as a TV pitchman. In the third stage of his public life, the Hall of Fame coach became known to new generations of fans through his eponymous line of groundbreaking video games, which are among the best-selling titles of all time. Madden is an entertaining, enlightening, and often poignant look back at the life of one of the greatest coaches, broadcasters, and beloved ambassadors the game has ever known. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Bryan Burwell) Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:06:47 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Madden-Audiobook/B00AR1I9KK thebookvoice.com 08:33:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Essential For Raider And Madden Fans I'm not going to lie, this book is pretty flawed in many ways. It doesn't seem to be that well researched. In particular the coaching years don't seem to be covered that well, and I was pretty disappointed with the coverage. Also the narrative structure is deeply flawed. When talking about particular, notable football games in Madden's life, the writer first starts with the outcome (why?) and then describes the game (ugh). And the writing, in general, leaves a lot to be desired. That said... there is still a lot of really great stuff in there, that Madden and Raider fans really can't afford to pass this up. There's a little bit about him and John Robinson growing up together, there's some stuff about Madden and his college years as a student and football player, and then of course his years as a coach, and finally as a broadcaster. The broadcaster years are actually pretty in-depth and insightful and probably the highlight of the book. I'm still hoping that someone will come out with a better biography of John Madden, but until they do, this book is worthy of a listen. I'm very glad that I got it. A must read for Raider fans I couldn't stop listening, it put me right in the middle of Raider history from my youth. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/Kyrie-Irving-The-Inspiring-Story-of-One-of-Basketballs-Most-Versatile-Point-Guards-Audiobook/B00U1SCE9G Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

In his memoir Son of Bum, decorated NFL coach Wade Phillips shows that the roots of his knowledge come from his father, Bum Phillips. A beloved character in NFL history, Bum taught Wade from the beginning that "coaching isn't bitching", as well as how to have perspective on the game during tough times. These are lessons that apply both on the field and off, and Wade has passed this wisdom down to his son, Wes Phillips, an NFL coach himself. Known for his homespun, plain-talking ways, Wade is a groundbreaking coach who has long believed in using support and camaraderie - instead of punishment and anger - to inspire his players to be winners on and off the field. And though his defensive concepts are revolutionary, he would say they begin with common sense. Son of Bum is more than one man's memoir - it's a story of family and football and a father who inspired his son. Original cover art copyright Diversion Publishing Corp.

Members Reviews: The actual book is a blistering condemnation of a cult masquerading as a church. This is "NOT" the book. It is a summary. Do not waste your time on any summary when you can own the actual book for a nominal amount more. The book is an engaging and accessible five star read. Ms. Remini is to be congratulated for her exposé of Scientology. Her writing style is both direct and unpretentious with the narrative realistic and compelling. The actual book is a well written, firsthand account of a malicious institution devoted to the exploitation of decent honorable people. It is a perfect example of what can happen to sensitive compassionate souls who are trying to do whatâs right in a cult dedicated to greed and evil. The candid rendering of the material makes for a speedy, though intense read. Ms. Remini and co-author Rebecca Paley waste no time in stripping away the cheap veneer of a scam that was created by a Hollywood hack for Hollywood goofballs. They lay bare a ploy that has slowly metastasized into a sinister sect of the contemptible. There is nothing positive to say about an organization that has degenerated to a level rivaling the Branch Davidians and Warren Jeffs FLDS. All three are examples of the blatant abuse and distortion of the first amendment in the United States. Ms. Remini is not the first principled person to be victimized by an institution of the deceitful. Unfortunately she will not be the last. She is, however to be applauded for having the backbone to stand up and tell the truth. When it mattered most, she reclaimed her common sense, exercised her critical thinking skills and in so doing has shed a glaring light on an unethical and revolting organization. Judging from the content, Ms. Remini does not seem to understand that she is a victim of child abuse. There is no excuse for any parent to deliberately lead an impressionable child into such a labyrinth of exploitation and corruption. Through her book, she has made clear the detrimental effects that a cult can have when allowed to masquerade as a church/religion. She is to be celebrated for her efforts and forgiven for being naive enough to fall for such nonsense in the first place. I highly recommended the actual book. Disregard any summary. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/A-Flame-of-Pure-Fire-Audiobook/B002UZKMIS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Critic Reviews: "One doesn't have to be a fan of boxing to be enthralled by this story of a nice guy who didn't finish last." (The New Yorker) Members Reviews: A bit Dempsey, a bunch of Left Wing politics! Any additional comments? If you are interested in the story of the great Jack Dempsey this is not the book for you. Roger Kahn, the overrated sports writer, books, not newspapers has written what should have been called, My Ideas and Political Philosophies of the 1920s. He praises every Liberal writer of the era, while adding a bit of Dempsey here and there. It got so bad that I had a difficult time finishing the thing. If I want to hear about Sacco and Vanzetti, the scandals of the Harding admiration, or how evil and nefarious Calvin Coolidge was, I would get a history book. As for the narrator, thats another gripe. I though I was listening to John Goodman, not that I have anything against John Goodman, but after 17 hours the readers crude Midwestern patter becomes almost intolerable, not to mention his mispronunciations of many of the names which the most casual of listeners would certainly recognize. Names such as Roosevelt, Carl Leammle, Paul Gallico, it al. . . .If you are a boxing fan, especially a Jack Dempsey fan leave this one alone. Flawless Great narrator, excellent biography, Factually sound for the most part, and I can be as pedantic as the worst of them. I could only find 2 errors .. and they were minor. I was delighted with this book And we think life is hard now!! I love this book and this is my second read as I also own the paper version of it and enjoyed it a few years back. Jack Dempsey with Tyson and Ali are my favourite boxing characters in history and the key thing that I enjoyed about this book is that we are provided with all of the intricacies pertaining to the time period which makes this story even more enjoyable. Loved it Downloaded this as i was interested in learning something about the first black heavyweight champion. So you can imagine my initial disappointment...which lasted about ten minutes. Fabulous read/listen. Great social commentary and history of this exciting period & boxer. Couldn't put it down (turn it off anyway). One of those stories you want to start again as soon as it finishes. Give it a go, simply excellent. A Knockout If you're a boxing fan and lover of The Roaring 20's this is one for you. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/A-Bold-Fresh-Piece-of-Humanity-Audiobook/B002V1LBTU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Avid Reader Explains Bold Fresh is a must Listen The sign of a good autobiography is its humility and honesty, and incredibly, A Bold Fresh is both. The experience of listening to this audiobook reminded me of Sidney Poitier's "The Measure of a Man", which was excellent. Why that is the case is obvious to me now. Simply, audio books that are read by their author communicate the authentic story as it went through the authors mind. The emotions and intonations add so much to the experience, communicating much more than words alone. Authors take note, if you wish to get to iPod and iPhone customers, it helps a great deal to show that it is worth the time out of your life to read your own material. James V Luisi One of the best I've heard This audio book was one of the best I've heard. I'm a little younger than Mr. O'Reilly, but not by much, and his chronicles of the 50's through 80's had me laughing to the point of embarrassment on the highway. It was one of the easiest I've ever listened to and was over way before I was ready for it to be. I'm also glad the Bold Fresh Guy shared a bit of his personal self in this book, his Likability Factor (get it) tripled in mine. Way to go Bill! Inspiring book for today's issues. Bill presents his straight forward and common sense method of decision making and interactions with others. We need this kind of logic in the chaos of today's environment. PATRIOTS ARE BORN The Holy Bible contains a book of Proverbs written by Solomon. Bold Fresh contains another book of Proverbs written by O'Reilly. Patriots are born through the reading of both books. Bold Fresh should be REQUIRED for all students in American Schools. Gbanks1040 Great book. Narrated by Bill O'Reilly made it an even better experience. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Bios-Memoirs/The-Vanderbilts-Audiobook/B007BFWXWU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/678/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: It only brushes the cold marble surface What disappointed you about The Vanderbilts? Listening to this book was like expecting an entertaining description of a dinner party and being read only the ingredient list that went into the food. Besides the early story of "the Commodore" growing the wealth of the family, everything else is a bland repitition of "this person was the son/daughter of who, general disposition, jobs, marriage, houses, death, funeral at which church, reading the will" over and over. You hear more about their houses than their actual lives, and when the author write that there was "considerable scandals filling all the newspapers" he never gives you any of the details, which is almost as annoying as it is boring. There are some interesting facts and history in this book, but not enough. How did the narrator detract from the book? the narrator was almost monotone, but I guess he did about as well as he could with such monotone text. Obscene Riches Everyone has heard about the Vanderbilts and their wealth but I was awed by their totally obscene wealth and their capacity to spend fortunes on mansions that were not noted for their architecture nor their contents just for their opulence and flashy luxury. The original Vanderbilt made the majority of his money not by hard work but by manipulating the stocks and shares he held and this was how the family continued to hold onto and increase their incredible fortunes. By and large the vast sums of money didn't seem to bring them happiness - there were famous custody cases, divorces and scandals and other than becoming the leaders of New York society none of them seemed to have a good time with their money. It made interesting listening but at times the numbers and dates all got a bit confusing and the dollar amounts so vast that I had to repeat them outloud to comprehend them before gasping. I enjoyed it but I sat there clasping my pearls at my throat at the sheer amounts of money spent on unimportant things while there were so many in great need and so little of their money was spent in philanthropy. One to listen and gasp at and thank the lord that the gilded age has past! Good read. Interesting. Fun. Good read if you want to visit any of the Vanderbilt houses. Even better the second time.
