Teddy’s job is to process visa applications, and by 1939, refugees from Nazi-conquered Poland, Austria, and other countries are desperate to secure safe passage to America. As Hitler sweeps through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, and Holland, the screws tighten and law after virulent law is passed to threaten the lives, indeed the very existence of the Jewish people. When Teddy and his girlfriend Sara are introduced to an orphaned young girl named Katy, who has been abandoned on the grounds of a nursery school, they agree to adopt her.

From 1915 to 1970, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America. Wilkerson compares this epic migration to the migrations of other peoples in history. She interviewed more than a thousand people, and gained access to new data and official records, to write this definitive and vividly dramatic account of how these American journeys unfolded, altering our cities, our country, and ourselves.

What an awesome story
Revisado: 08-07-23
I could relate to this book totally. I was born in the north in the 40s and moved down to South Florida in the 60s it was the first time I had seen segregation. Later in life I moved to Orlando Eustis area so the location and the story with very much alive to me
A lot of work went into this story it was really well written and moved right along. I truly, think everyone should read this and put themselves in the characters feet. Thank you.

I like the story, but couldn’t relate to the Christian influences. I am of a different faith, and still really enjoyed this book since most faiths, I’ll say a similar thing love is the most important thing and understanding we are all human .

At the End of the Santa Fe Trail is a book by Sister Blandina Segale about her fascinating experiences as a young Catholic nun in the southwestern United States from 1872 to 1892. At a time when lawlessness and brutality were the norm, Sister Blandina displayed courage, tough-mindedness, and a deep religious faith in service to the less fortunate. Sister Blandina's well-written account tells of working with immigrants, Hispanics, and Native Americans who were losing their land to swindlers.

Good story
Revisado: 05-13-22
This is a great story. And well read except for one thing.
There are many Spanish names of people that had tamed that area. All of them were miss pronounced as the reader spoke in English . I wish she had learned correct pronunciation of the Spanish names and words.
As a Santa Fe is, it irritated me. Other than that it was good

From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. Disfigured and covered in a blanket of bees, little Simonopio is for some locals the stuff of superstition, a child kissed by the devil. But he is welcomed by landowners Francisco and Beatriz Morales, who adopt him and care for him. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can - visions of all that’s yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous.

Wow what a story
Revisado: 02-10-20
I started this book not knowing what to expect. It was probably one of the most satisfying, and compelling stories I have read in many many years. The narrator’s were amazing. I felt like I was a B on the wall listening to the story. I loved it. I hope that Audible refers more books like this to me I hope you read it

The worst hard-rock mining disaster in American history began a half hour before midnight on June 8, 1917, when fire broke out in the North Butte Mining Company's Granite Mountain shaft. Sparked more than 2,000 feet below ground, the fire spewed flames, smoke, and poisonous gas through a labyrinth of underground tunnels. Within an hour more than 400 men would be locked in a battle to survive. Within three days 164 of them would be dead.
