  The Rise of Nazi Germany - How...

  The rise of Nazi Germany is a tale deeply rooted in the tumultuous conditions following World War I, when Germany was thrust into a period of economic collapse, social disarray, and political chaos. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, aimed to punish Germany for its role in the war, imposing harsh reparations and territorial losses that humiliated the nation. This punitive treaty left the German people feeling betrayed, their economy in ruins, and their national pride shattered. The Weimar Republic, established in 1919, was meant to provide a democratic alternative, but it struggled from the outset. Political extremism, rampant inflation, and unemployment crippled the fledgling democracy, leaving it vulnerable to authoritarian ideologies. 
    
  Amid this backdrop of suffering and instability, Adolf Hitler emerged as a figure who would exploit the widespread discontent. Born in Austria in 1889, Hitler’s early life was marked by struggle and obscurity. He moved to Munich in the early 1910s, where he became involved in nationalist politics. His service in World War I, where he was wounded, further shaped his worldview, and he developed a deep sense of resentment toward the Treaty of Versailles, which he believed had unfairly punished Germany. Hitler’s fervent nationalism, combined with a distorted racial ideology, began to form the core of his future political movement. 
    
  In the early 1920s, Hitler joined the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP), a small but growing political group. His powerful oratory skills and intense charisma quickly made him the party’s leader. Hitler’s ability to tap into the frustration and fear of the German people gave him a platform to spread his ideas of racial superiority, anti-Semitism, and militaristic expansion. His rise coincided with the economic devastation caused by the Great Depression, which further destabilized Germany and provided fertile ground for Nazi propaganda.

  "In the shadows of history's greatest conflicts, women have always been warriors—yet their stories remain untold. Women in War uncovers over twenty raw, true accounts of the fearless women who fought and served, from ancient battlefields to the jungles of Vietnam and the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan. 
  Step into their combat boots: nurses dodging gunfire, spies sabotaging enemies, soldiers enduring unimaginable loss. Facing sexism, trauma, and overwhelming odds, these heroines reveal that true valor beats in the heart, not just on the battlefield. 
  Brought to life through meticulous research and exclusive firsthand interviews by retired police officer and acclaimed author David Yuzuk, this intimate collection honors the unbreakable spirit of military women. Narrated by Julia Whelan, the voice behind the New York Times bestseller The Women by Kristin Hannah, it's a profound tribute to the unsung forces who shaped our world." 
  “Gripping stories of female heroism that will awe and inspire.” 
  —NY Times bestselling author Ralph Pezzullo 
  “I thought I was going to die that day! The Viet Cong launched a brutal attack, and the explosion hit like a freight train, its deafening roar slamming into my ears just seconds before the shockwave hurled us off our feet, Doors were ripped from their hinges, and windows were shattered into a thousand pieces. 
  “The pandemonium jolted me back to reality. I grabbed my flak jacket and sprinted to the Intensive Care Unit. Were the enemy already inside our perimeter, AK-47s in hand, bayonets fixed? It didn’t matter. My mission was clear — Protect the soldiers in my care. They came first, no matter what.” —67th Evac Nurse Ginny Dornheggen

  The Shortest History of Japan -...

  Zen, haiku, martial arts, sushi, anime, manga, film, video games . . . Japanese culture has long enriched our Western way of life. Yet from a Western perspective, Japan remains a remote island country that has long had a complicated relationship with the outside world. 
   
   
   
  Even at the nearest point, Japan—an archipelago strung like a necklace around the Asian mainland—is considerably farther from Asia than Britain is from Europe. The sea provides an effective barrier against invasion and has enabled the culture to develop in unique and distinctive ways. During the Edo period, the Tokugawa shoguns successfully closed the country to the West. After Japan opened, it swung in the opposite direction, adopting Western culture wholesale. Both these strategies enabled it to avoid colonization, one of the very few non-Western countries to do so, and to retain its traditions and way of life. 
   
   
   
  This history will be of interest to people who know nothing about Japan, but also full of insights for those who do. Lesley Downer takes the listener through the great sweep of Japanese history, focusing on the dramatic stories of larger-than-life individuals—from emperors descended from the Sun Goddess to warlords, samurai, merchants, court ladies, women warriors, geisha, and businessmen who shaped this extraordinary modern society.
