  • One evening, some time after the great Crimean War of 1854-55, a company of military and naval officers met at dinner in London. They were talking over the war, as soldiers and sailors love to do, and somebody said: "Who, of all the workers in the Crimea, will be longest remembered?" Each guest was asked to give his opinion on this point, and each one wrote a name on a slip of paper. There were many slips, but when they came to be examined there was only one name, for every single man had written "Florence Nightingale." Every English boy and girl knows the beautiful story of Miss Nightingale's life. Indeed, hers is perhaps the best-loved name in England since good Queen Victoria died. It will be a great pleasure to me to tell this story to our own boys and girls in this country; and it shall begin, as all proper stories do, at the beginning. - Summary by the author

  • The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a haunting portrait of ambition, love, and illusion in 1920s America. Narrated by Nick Carraway, the novel follows the enigmatic Jay Gatsby—a self-made millionaire whose lavish parties mask a singular obsession. As Gatsby chases his dream, Nick becomes both captivated and disillusioned by Gatsby's idealism. Through glittering excess and quiet despair, Fitzgerald exposes the emptiness and elusiveness of the American Dream, the moral corruption involved in the pursuit of wealth, and the deep divide between old money privilege and the striving self-made man. - Summary by TJ Burns Cast: Jay Gatsby: Tomas Peter Daisy Buchanan, Pammy, Boy 1: Jasmin Salma Nick Carraway: TJ Burns Tom Buchanan: Larry Wilson Jordan Baker: Jenn Broda George Wilson: Alan Mapstone Myrtle Wilson: Matea Bracic Meyer Wolfshiem: False Citrine Catherine: Kim Lamb Mr. McKee, Chauffeur: Chuck Williamson Mrs. McKee, Horse Woman: Amelia Chesley Ewing Klipspringer: Andrew Gaunce Michaelis: KevinS Owl Eyes: Matthew Reece Nick’s Dad, Drunk Driver, Witness: Craig Franklin Mr. Sloane, Police Officer: Kyle Donelan Doctor Civet, Man 2, Elevator Boy, Waiter: Diana Helen Kennedy Lucille, Stella: Magda Wilde Girl 1: Michele Eaton Reporter, Orchestra Leader, Conductor: David Purdy Dan Cody, Tom’s Butler, Gardener: realisticspeakers Mr. Gatz: Retroindiereader Slagle: Son of the Exiles Miss Baedeker, Woman 1: Sirena Rose Woman 2, Motorist, Nurse: Eleonora Bettenzoli Woman 3, Operator: Hannah F Gatsby’s Butler: Weston L Dog Breeder: ambsweet13

  • Select works of Martin Luther: an offering to the church of God in the last days, translated by Henry Cole. Volume 1 of a four-volume set. Henry Cole has selected and now presents what he considers the best of Luther's writings, including nine sermons. Luther's principal concern in most of his writings is the understanding that salvation is by faith alone and not by human works. This he is not ashamed to repeat in various ways, that we may surrender our efforts to God, and that our works become offerings of love and service rather than attempts to merit his free grace. - Summary by Gillian Hendrie
