In 1982, amid the nuclear paranoia that engulfed the US and the Soviet Union, Samantha Smith, a fifth grader from Manchester, Maine, wrote a letter to the Kremlin asking the Soviet leader if he was going to start a war. When Pravda, the biggest Soviet newspaper, published her letter—and Samantha received an unprecedented invitation to visit the Soviet Union—her family embarked on a historic journey.

Beautiful Story
Revisado: 06-29-23
The Cold War conjures up images of spies, deceit, violence, and guns. But this story is about a young and innocent girl from Maine who asked a simple question - will there be a nuclear war - and by doing so may have pushed back the hands on the “Doomsday clock to midnight.”
The story is well crafted by a writer who juxtaposes her own parallel experienced to those of Samantha Smith, thus providing an intriguing perspective and filling out this remarkable story.
If you love learning history while also reading a fascinating story, this will not disappoint!

Sabatini takes up the story of Scaramouche as the revolutionary leaders like Robespierre turn to terror to squelch any chance for royalist sympathizers or the remaining nobility to play a role in France's political future. Scaramouche pursues a course that sets him in opposition to Robespierre, while trying to secure the affections of his beloved Aline.

Wrong book!

This is titled Scaramouche Kingmaker but is in fact the first book. Scaramouche. The narration also happens to be terrible. Not sure why Audible is selling this. Will return.
