Chapters:
00:00:00 - 24 - A Friend of Marie Antoinette
00:16:15 - 25 - The Rival Sisters

The best stories are written by life itself, and that is why Thornton Hall has collected real life love stories in this volume. All the Princes Charming and the Fair Maidens of these stories are historical figures, which have at one time played their roles at one of the many Courts of Europe. Hall's writing style is entertaining and easy to follow, and though he may be guilty of embellishing the stories, the flourishes only add to their charm. - Summary by Carolin

Principles of Economics was a leading economics textbook of Alfred Marshall (1842-1924), first published in 1890. Marshall began writing the Principles of Economics in 1881 and he spent much of the next decade at work on the treatise. His plan for the work gradually extended to a two-volume compilation on the whole of economic thought.The first volume was published in 1890 to worldwide acclaim that established him as one of the leading economists of his time. It brought the ideas of supply and demand, of marginal utility and of the costs of production into a coherent whole, and became the dominant economic textbook in England for a long period. The second volume, which was to address foreign trade, money, trade fluctuations, taxation, and collectivism, was never published at all. (Wikipedia).This reading is based on the eighth edition, published in 1920.

It is 1904 and women's suffrage has hit the small town of Noonoon. Though the election campaigners preen themselves for the women's vote, the fight isn't entirely won, for the male residents are bristling at this threat to their supremacy. And down at Clay's there are other problems too: Dawn is now a young woman and in these days of slender chances Grandma Clay must keep an eye on the marriage market. But Dawn, lively and outspoken wants a career on the stage. - Summary by Trove - National Library of Australia

Víctor Hugo escribió esta obra a raíz de ver a un verdugo ensayando con la guillotina para la ejecución del día siguiente- Quedó de tal manera impresionado que decidió escribir este alegato en contra de la pena de muerte, de la que era detractor absoluto.Hugo nos deja un relato en el que detalla todo lo que puede pasar por la mente de una persona en momentos tan infinitamente duros.Palabras, sentimiento y desolación de un hombre, sin nombre. Podría ser cualquiera...cualquiera. 'Dicen que no es nada, que no se padece apenas, que es un fin muy dulce, y que la muerte está de este modo bastante simplificada. ¿Y qué es, pues, esta agonía de seis semanas y este ahoguío de todo un día? ¿Qué son las angustias de estas irreparables veinte y cuatro horas que pasan tan despacio y tan deprisa? ¿Qué, esta escala de tormentos que va a salir al patíbulo? ' (Summary by Montse González)
