Something Wicked: The Lives, Crimes and Deaths of the Pendle Witches by Carol Ann Lee

Please visit <a href="https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/645790">https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/645790</a> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Something Wicked: The Lives, Crimes and Deaths of the Pendle Witches Author: Carol Ann Lee Narrator: Emma Gregory Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 10 minutes Release date: October 10, 2024 Genres: World Publisher's Summary: On 20 August 1612, ten people from Pendle were executed before a vast crowd at Lancaster&#039;s Gallows Hill. The condemned and their associates had endured six months of accusations, imprisonment and torture; their treatment was such that one of the group died in Lancaster Castle&#039;s dungeons, while awaiting trial. Today, a thriving tourism industry exists in and around Pendle, the former home of the so-called witches, yet virtually everything we know about the case originates from a single source: Thomas Potts&#039; Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches, hurriedly published in 1613 and distinctly skewed in favour of the prosecution. Until now... Sunday Times bestselling author Carol Ann Lee brings an entirely fresh perspective to the story by approaching it as true crime. Having worked in the genre for more than a decade, her research leads to revelatory discoveries, transforming our knowledge of those shadowy figures behind ill-famed names, and the terrible events that befell them. After four centuries of superstition and surmise, the two central, warring families - each headed by a fiercely independent widow working as &#039;cunning women&#039; - emerge fully formed, as the book uncovers the reality of their lives and their alleged crimes before exploring the trial and executions. Along the way, we uncover the truth behind some of the story&#039;s most enduring mysteries: the legend of Malkin Tower and the final resting place of the Pendle witches. This is a ground-breaking book that will take the reader on a spellbinding journey into the dark heart of England&#039;s largest and most notorious witch trial.

This Land of Promise: A History of Refugees and Exiles in Britain by Matthew Lockwood

Please visit <a href="https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634301">https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634301</a> to listen full audiobooks. Title: This Land of Promise: A History of Refugees and Exiles in Britain Author: Matthew Lockwood Narrator: Mark Meadows Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 25 hours 29 minutes Release date: June 20, 2024 Genres: World Publisher's Summary: ‘Important, comprehensive, and superbly researched. All the more urgent at the present time’ BART VAN ES &#039;A terrific, clear-eyed and balanced history that cuts through today’s toxic debates&#039; DAILY TELEGRAPH How have those who arrived on Britain’s shores shaped its history? Refugees seeking to reach Britain today often face perilous journeys, impossible bureaucracy and acidic public opinion. But this hasn’t always been the way. For most of our history, Great Britain cherished its outward image as a safe haven for those displaced by religious persecution, political violence or economic crisis – an island of stability in the midst of a violent world. In This Land of Promise, migration scholar Matthew Lockwood overturns many popular modern-day misconceptions about Britain’s history of immigration. Exiles and refugees have been not only a constant presence in Britain across the centuries but also intrinsic to shaping Britain as it is today. This is a profoundly moving and illuminating history, told through the people who lived it: Frederick Douglass and the formerly enslaved men who followed in his footsteps, fleeing America on the hopes of kinder cultures. Little girls like Liesl Ornstein, who discovered they were Jewish only when Hitler took Austria, who were sent to England and told to call themselves ‘Elizabeth’. Sun Yat-sen, who found sanctuary in London – a brief abduction aside – before becoming the father of modern China. Freddie Mercury, who at every turn tried to shake Zanzibar from his bones. Almost every time, we see when we look back, Britain has not been an island refuge from the world, but an island refuge for the world. Not a country burdened by refugees, but instead transformed and strengthened by them.

Normal Women: Nine Hundred Years of Making History by Philippa Gregory

Please visit <a href="https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650883">https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650883</a> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Normal Women: Nine Hundred Years of Making History Author: Philippa Gregory Narrator: Joe Jameson, Nneka Okoye, Tania Rodrigues, James Goode, Clare Corbett, Philippa Gregory Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 27 hours 15 minutes Release date: February 27, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 6 Genres: World Publisher's Summary: The #1 New York Times bestselling historical novelist delivers her magnum opus—a landmark work of feminist nonfiction that radically redefines our understanding of the extraordinary roles ordinary women played throughout British history and “should be included in every history lesson” (Glamour UK) “As author and lead narrator, Gregory’s passion for this topic is evidence in her confident narration. . . . This audio should be savored. . . . This stellar work will be of interest to feminists, historians, Anglophiles, and those who like learning more about women throughout history.” —Booklist (starred review) Did you know that there are more penises than women in the Bayeux Tapestry? That the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 was started and propelled by women who were protesting a tax on women? Or that celebrated naturalist Charles Darwin believed not just that women were naturally inferior to men, but that they’d evolve to become ever more inferior? These are just a few of the startling findings you will learn from reading Philippa Gregory’s Normal Women. In this ambitious and groundbreaking book, she tells the story of England over 900 years, for the very first time placing women—some fifty per cent of the population—center stage. Using research skills honed in her work as one of our foremost historical novelists, Gregory trawled through court records, newspapers, and journals to find highwaywomen and beggars, murderers and brides, housewives and pirates, female husbands and hermits. The “normal women” you will meet in these pages went to war, ploughed the fields, campaigned, wrote, and loved. They rode in jousts, flew Spitfires, issued their own currency, and built ships, corn mills and houses. They committed crimes or treason, worshipped many gods, cooked and nursed, invented things, and rioted. A lot. A landmark work of scholarship and storytelling, Normal Women chronicles centuries of social and cultural change—from 1066 to modern times—powered by the determination, persistence, and effectiveness of women. “Lively, timely and gloriously energetic. Each page bursts with life, and every chapter swirls with personalities left out of traditional narratives of Britain’s past. Philippa Gregory has produced something rare and wonderful: a genuinely new history of [Britain], with women at its beating heart.” —Dan Jones, New York Times bestselling author of The Plantagenets “Stunning. . . . Full of surprises. . . . A brilliant, essential read.” —The Independent (UK)
