Up From Slavery by Booker T. Washington audiobook.

Genre: biography

Up From Slavery is the 1901 autobiography of Booker T. Washington detailing his slow and steady rise from a slave child during the Civil War, to the difficulties and obstacles he overcame to get an education at the new Hampton University, to his work establishing vocational schools—most notably the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama—to help black people and other disadvantaged minorities learn useful, marketable skills and work to pull themselves, as a race, up by the bootstraps. He reflects on the generosity of both teachers and philanthropists who helped in educating blacks and native Americans. He describes his efforts to instill manners, breeding, health and a feeling of dignity to students.

Bob Sumner, after having been shanghaied onto a boat heading north up the Mississippi from his comfortable home town of St. Louis, is put to work on the 'New Moon' and finds himself in the much less comfortable territory mentioned earlier, where he is forced to learn all about treachery, double-crossing, and finds his trust in fellow man questioned more often than he was accustomed to. At the same time, he finds himself needing to learn how to survive in an environment which seemed the antithesis to his old style of life.

The Jewel of Seven Stars by Bram Stoker audiobook.

Genre: horror

In The Jewel of Seven Stars, Bram Stoker turns from the vampire-haunted nights of Transylvania to the dust and incense of Egyptology, where the past refuses to stay buried. Malcolm Ross, a young Englishman drawn into an unusual household, finds himself at the center of a tense and glittering mystery when the celebrated archaeologist Abel Trelawny is discovered grievously injured beside an ancient, newly acquired mummy. As Ross and Trelawny's determined daughter, Margaret, sift through cryptic documents, strange relics, and unsettling coincidences, they uncover a carefully pieced-together theory about an Egyptian queen whose power may have reached beyond death itself. The closer they come to understanding the meaning of a legendary jewel and the purpose of a secret, midnight experiment, the more their rational explanations crumble under the weight of eerie signs, unexplained influences, and a growing sense that something is watching from the shadows. Blending Victorian scientific ambition with occult dread, Stoker crafts a tale of obsession, forbidden knowledge, and the perilous boundary between discovery and sacrilege.
