Told Under a White Oak Tree by William S. HART (1864 - 1946) Genre(s): Children's Fiction, Action & Adventure Fiction, Westerns Read by: Chuck Williamson in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 01 - 01 - Part One 00:10:48 - 02 - 02 - Part Two 00:24:14 - 03 - 03 - Part Three 00:36:25 - 04 - 04 - Part Four An inside look into the wild world of silent movie cowboy William S. Hart... as narrated by his horse! This is a fascinating (if fictionalized) behind-the-scenes look into the wild, action-packed world of a Hollywood cowboy and stuntman. TOLD UNDER A WHITE OAK TREE is a charming children's book that not only gives us a fanciful account of Hart's career as Hollywood's premier western hero, but also tells a rousing adventure story of his exceptional (if somewhat smart-alecky) equine companion, who strives to become as renowned a screen legend as his master.Caution: This book contains a couple of racial epithets that may be offensive to some readers. Turns out horses aren't very progressive or PC.

It was a fairy cat, you see, and so you would rather expect it to be different, wouldn't you? It had a violet nose, indigo eyes, pale blue ears, green front legs, a yellow body, orange back legs and a red tail. In fact, it was coloured with all the colours of the rainbow, and on that account it was known as the Rainbow Cat.It lived, of course, in Fairyland, and it had all sorts of strange adventures. I am going to tell you some of them, and I think you will agree with me that it really had a very thrilling time, one way or another. - Summary by author More information: https://librivox.org/the-rainbow-cat-by-rose-fyleman/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

The Countess of Lowndes Square, and Other Stories by E. F. BENSON (1867 - 1940) Genre(s): Single Author Collections Read by: Zechariah Raman, jimsvox4, Kate Follis, Michele McFarland, Devorah Allen, Roman Noble in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 15 - Crank Stories, Chapter 2: Philip's Safety Razor A collection of fourteen short stories, grouped under the headings of 'Blackmailing Stories', 'Spook Stories', 'Cat Stories', 'Crank Stories', and 'General Stories'. From the preface: '[S]uch readers as are in search merely of the lighter...aspects of life, will be able to avoid like poison so innocent-looking a title as 'The Countess of Lowndes Square,' for surely they would not find therein the fashionable descriptions of high life which they might reasonably anticipate, but would merely cast the book from them in disgust, when they discovered that one who had been the wife of an Earl, and ought therefore to have known ever so much better, belonged to the most contemptible of the criminal classes.' - Summary by Devorah Allen More information: https://librivox.org/the-countess-of-lowndes-square-and-other-stories-by-e-f-benson/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

The Faerie Queene (version 2) by Edmund SPENSER (1552 - 1599) Genre(s): Epics Read by: Thomas A. Copeland in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 65 - Faerie Queene VI.v 00:19:32 - 66 - Faerie Queene VI.vi 00:40:53 - 67 - Faerie Queene VI.vii 01:04:52 - 68 - Faerie Queene VI.viii 01:28:17 - 69 - Faerie Queene VI.ix 01:50:34 - 70 - Faerie Queene VI.x 02:11:53 - 71 - Faerie Queene VI.xi 02:36:50 - 72 - Faerie Queene VI.xii 02:56:59 - 73 - Faerie Queene VII.vi 03:24:17 - 74 - Faerie Queene VII.vii-viii Spenser planned a 24-book romance-epic consisting of two parts, of which he completed half of the first. The first twelve books were to illustrate the development of virtues within the individual soul, and the second twelve were to depict the application of these moral virtues to remedying evils that afflict the world. Each of the first set of quests was to begin at the court of the Fairy Queen, Gloriana, and the knights were to return thither after having defeated some foe representing a personal weakness. Having thus proved themselves, they were qualified to undertake the second quests, in the world. The neat plan becomes somewhat muddled by Book 3, which nevertheless contains the philosophical core of the poem's allegorical structure: the Platonic notion that love (grace) unifies the cosmos and draws the will, through the pursuit of beauty, into virtuous action, returning to God at last in worship. The plot structure of the poem is rich and complex, with many strands interlinked and overlapping, each replete with allegorical significance.

The Pilot by James Fenimore COOPER (1789 - 1851) Genre(s): Action & Adventure Fiction, Historical Fiction, War & Military Fiction Read by: Jim Locke in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 18 - Chapter 18 00:34:07 - 19 - Chapter 19 01:06:51 - 20 - Chapter 20 01:33:03 - 21 - Chapter 21 01:53:24 - 22 - Chapter 22 02:19:00 - 23 - Chapter 23 02:45:43 - 24 - Chapter 24 03:23:02 - 25 - Chapter 25 03:42:05 - 26 - Chapter 26 04:05:25 - 27 - Chapter 27 04:31:19 - 28 - Chapter 28 04:54:56 - 29 - Chapter 29 05:20:44 - 30 - Chapter 30 05:40:38 - 31 - Chapter 31 06:10:05 - 32 - Chapter 32 06:40:01 - 33 - Chapter 33 The work, which was admired by Herman Melville and Joseph Conrad for its authentic portrayal of a seafaring life and takes place during the American Revolution, launched a whole genre of maritime fiction. It features a mysterious and almost superhuman American sea pilot (based on the American hero John Paul Jones) who fights battles off the coast of England against the British and American loyalists. One of the book's themes is the ambiguous nature of loyalty. Although often bogged down by complicated nautical terminology and intrusive philosophical dialogue, the novel is nevertheless noted for its spiritual and moral dimensions. - Summary by The Encyclopedia Britannica More information: https://librivox.org/the-pilot-by-james-fenimore-cooper/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)
