Andrew Carnegie
About this listen
A Story of Innovation, Fortune, and Giving Back: The Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie.
"A sunny disposition is worth more than fortune. Young people should know that it can be cultivated; that the mind, like the body, can be moved from the shade into sunshine. Let us move it then....”
A controversial figure in his time, Andrew Carnegie was seen as a self-made man who rose from humble beginnings to become one of the wealthiest individuals of his era. However, others viewed him as an exploitative figure. The reality is, Andrew Carnegie led a remarkable life marked by rags-to-riches success in business.
The "Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie" is a reflective account of the industrialist's life, providing insights into his journey from a penniless Scottish immigrant to one of America's wealthiest men.
So, how did he go from poor immigrant to business success? This is his story.

Story
When Darwin first introduced his ideas in "On the Origin of Species" in 1859, it posed a significant challenge to prevailing religious and scientific beliefs of the time. The prevailing views at the time held that species were created in their current forms and remained unchanged. However, Darwin's revolutionary theory of evolution by natural selection suggested a different story.

It really is the four horsemen of the apocalypse, Death, Famine, War, and Conquest. Things a seventeen-year-old boy shouldn’t have to deal with. In those most infamous words, mistakes were made. It wasn’t supposed to happen. The asteroid was supposed to miss. Running for their lives, Ryan Conrad and Kelsey Morgan, race to escape the impact of a super asteroid and the apocalyptic world it left behind. Fighting to survive the aftershocks. The earthquake to end all earthquakes, the largest tsunami in human history, and worst of all, the EMP and loss of civilization.

For one singular purpose, Jesus of Nazareth came into this world: to destroy the work of darkness and reconcile God's children of creation to Himself. The bloody cross was the crucible through which this glorious reunion was consecrated, and the crucible through which Christ has called us into the divine family. Through the cross we share His blood and through Christ's blood we share the DNA of heaven. But we must walk the walk. This audiobook is a call to the one road of true discipleship - the road walked by the first disciples and the early church.

When a serial kidnapper targets his daughter, Connor will have to step outside the law, outside the procedure and red tape that he's been forced to follow for years, and engage in a heart-pounding race against the clock to get his daughter back and put the monster who took her in the ground.

Story
For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green.

Story
Best-selling author Bryan Burrough recently made a shocking discovery: The small town of Temple, Texas, where he had grown up, had harbored a dark secret. One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

Story
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.
