América: The Epic Story of Spanish North America, 1493-1898 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1259min
An epic history of the Spanish empire in North America from 1493 to 1898 by Robert Goodwin, author of Spain: The Centre of the World. At the conclusion of the American Revolution, half the modern United States was part of the vast Spanish Empire. The year after Columbus' great voyage of discovery, in 1492, he claimed Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands for Spain. For the next 300 years, thousands of proud Spanish conquistadors and their largely forgotten Mexican allies went in search of glory and riches from Florida to California. Many died; few triumphed. Some were cruel; some were curious; some were kind. Missionaries and priests yearned to harvest Indian souls for God through baptism and Christian teaching. Theirs was a frontier world which Spain struggled to control in the face of Indian resistance and competition from France, Britain and finally the United States. In the 1800s, Spain lost it all. Goodwin tells this history through the lives of the people who made it happen and the literature and art with which they celebrated their successes and mourned their failures. He weaves an epic tapestry from these intimate biographies of explorers and conquerors, like Columbus and Coronado, but also lesser known characters, like the powerful Gálvez family, who gave invaluable and largely forgotten support to the American patriots during the Revolutionary War; the great Pueblo leader Popay; and Esteban, the first documented African American. Like characters in a great play or a novel, Goodwin's protagonists walk the stage of history with heroism and brio and much tragedy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Thom Rivera.

The Declaration, The Wind, & The Light: A Tales from a Revolution Collection , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 921min
Ordinary people in extraordinary times.The question of how the American colonists made the long trip from being subjects of the British king to being citizens of the independent United States has nearly as many answers as there were people. Within these collected tales, you'll be transported to the time when the American Revolution tested how a tobacco farmer, a Spanish sailor, and a Quaker blacksmith would all navigate the tumultuous times of the American Revolution.The Declaration:A long-lost document and a forgotten heritage.Right when Justin Harris thought he’d secured his family’s comfort on their farm in the upcountry of colonial South Carolina, marauding British forces came to threaten everything he held dear. When he takes up arms in support of the revolution, how will his actions reach across the centuries to change his descendants’ lives?The Wind:The American Revolution reaches the Gulf Coast.Gabriel is a simple sailor, doing the bidding of his captain and king, when he is swept up in a storm that changes his life in ways that he could never have anticipated. Carlotta yearns for her lost home and is searching for her lost husband, but both remain elusive in a world that has been turned upside down by forces far outside of her control. When the storm that is Governor Bernardo de Gálvez breaks over them both, will either of them - or their world - ever be the same?The Light:Caught between the impossible and the forbidden.As a blacksmith in the quiet town of Trenton, New Jersey, Robert Harris was accustomed to working with the challenges of fire and steel. The outbreak of open warfare, though, will test his Quaker faith and its command to avoid all violence. With enemy forces occupying the town and a former business associate determined to destroy his family and friends, ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shamaan Casey.
