When Fleming was found dead on the floor of his locked gunroom, a Confederate-made Colt-type percussion .36 revolver in his hand, the coroner's verdict was 'death by accident.' But Gladys Fleming had her doubts. Enough at any rate to engage Colonel Jefferson Davis Rand—better known just as Jeff—private detective and a pistol-collector himself, to catalogue, appraise, and negotiate the sale of her late husband's collection. There were a number of people who had wanted the collection. The question was: had anyone wanted it badly enough to kill Fleming? And if so, how had he done it? Here is a mystery, told against the fascinating background of old guns and gun-collecting, which is rapid-fire without being hysterical, exciting without losing its contact with reason, and which introduces a personable and intelligent new private detective. It is a story that will keep your nerves on a hair trigger even if you don't know the difference between a cased pair of Paterson .34's and a Texas .40 with a ramming-lever.

Lourdes by Émile ZOLA (1840 - 1902), translated by Ernest Alfred VIZETELLY (1853 - 1922) Genre(s): Religious Fiction Read by: Peter Tucker in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 00 - Preface 00:13:56 - 01 - The First Day: I 00:54:26 - 02 - The First Day: II 01:39:02 - 03 - The First Day: III 02:23:27 - 04 - The First Day: IV 03:12:19 - 05 - The First Day: V 04:05:48 - 06 - The Second Day: I 04:46:19 - 07 - The Second Day: II 05:30:31 - 08 - The Second Day: III 06:14:49 - 09 - The Second Day: IV This book describes a five day national pilgrimage to the holy shrine of Lourdes, where miracle cures are hoped for. The central character is a priest, Pierre, whose faith is faltering. He is accompanying his childhood sweetheart who has been stricken with paralysis and whose faith is strong. In the background of the great irony of this relationship, there are numerous sub-plots, some tragic, some whimsical, involving a large number of characters, set in the midst of organised chaos in the pilgrimage site. Through Pierre's mental and spiritual experiences Zola explores the role of religious faith in a society coming to terms with science and reason. - Summary by Peter Tucker More information: https://librivox.org/lourdes-by-emile-zola/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

What the White Race May Learn from the Indian by George Wharton JAMES (1858 - 1923) Genre(s): Essays & Short Works, Social Science (Culture & Anthropology) Read by: Roger Melin in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 27 - Visiting the Indians 00:06:19 - 28 - Conclusion People learn from other people, and races have forever learned from other races. Herein we are treated to an in-depth understanding of categorized social characteristics of the Native American peoples, primarily those of the western U.S. as they existed at the time of book publication (1908). 'In dealing with [the Native Americans] as a race, a people, therefore, I do as I would with my own race, I take what to me seem to be racial characteristics, or in other words, the things that are manifested in the lives of the best men and women, and which seem to represent their habitual aims, ambitions, and desires.' - Summary by Roger Melin & book foreword More information: http://librivox.org/what-the-white-race-may-learn-from-the-indian-by-george-wharton-james/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)
