    Résumé:
    L'été 1916 était arrivé comme un four. Juin avait été brûlant, le genre de mois qui poussait les citadins hors de leurs appartements en briques à Philadelphie et à New York, vers la promesse des brises venant de l'Atlantique.Ainsi, ils se précipitèrent vers l'est, vers le sable, vers les vagues, vers les petites villes côtières du New Jersey alignées comme des perles le long de la côte — Beach Haven, Spring Lake, Asbury Park, Matawan — bientôt débordantes de vie.L'océan était le grand soulagement. Frais, vaste et — pensait-on — sûr. S'immerger dans ses eaux après des jours d'air étouffant de la ville, c'était se sentir renaître. Le sel brûlait la saleté de la fumée de charbon, la chaleur, le stress. Les femmes s'avançaient dans l'eau jusqu'aux genoux, riant nerveusement des vagues, tandis que les jeunes hommes nageaient hardiment au-delà des cordes, tranchant l'eau de larges mouvements.Mais sous la surface scintillante, la mer gardait ses propres secrets dangereux.

    Summary:
    Huey Pierce Long Jr. (August 30, 1893 - September 10, 1935), nicknamed "The Kingfish", was an American politician who served as the 40th governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932 and as a United States senator from 1932 until his assassination in 1935. He was a left-wing populist member of the Democratic Party and rose to national prominence during the Great Depression for his vocal criticism of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal, which Long deemed insufficiently radical. The following recording is of Long’s 1935 radio broadcast speech, The St. Vitus Dance Government.

    Summary:
    The wind never truly dies in the Urals. It prowls the valleys and ridgelines like a restless spirit, rattling bare birches, hissing across the frozen stone. At night it screams—long, feral cries that curl around the peaks like warning songs. The Mansi hunters had long ago given one of those mountains a name: Kholat Syakhl, the Mountain of the Dead. In the dim light of February 1959, the mountain waited. Snow drifted across its slopes, erasing tracks, swallowing sound, hiding the small traces of what was to come. Soon, nine figures would climb its shoulder, laughing, weary, defiant against the cold. They would pitch their tent there, a fragile canvas wall against an indifferent wilderness. And within hours, the mountain would keep them forever.

    Summary:
    On June 8, 1967, during the Six-Day War, the USS Liberty, a United States Navy technical research ship, was attacked by Israeli Air Force jet fighter aircraft and Israeli Navy motor torpedo boats. The combined air and sea attack killed 34 US crew members (naval officers, seamen, two marines, and one civilian NSA employee), wounded 171 crew members, and severely damaged the Liberty. At the time, the ship was in international waters north of the Sinai Peninsula, roughly 25 nautical miles northwest from the Egyptian city of Arish. Though Israel apologized for the attack, saying that USS Liberty had been mistaken for an Egyptian ship, survivors of the USS Liberty have maintained that the attack was deliberate. Admiral Thomas Hinman Moorer, the 7th chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, later accused President Lyndon B. Johnson of having covered up that fact. As Moorer wrote in a January 2004 article: “Did our government put Israel's interests ahead of our own? If so, why? Does our government continue to subordinate American interests to Israeli interests? These are important questions that should be investigated by an independent, fully empowered commission of the American government.”

    Christine Marie Evert (born December 21, 1954), born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is an American former professional tennis player. One of the most successful players of all time, she was ranked as the world No. 1 in women's singles by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) for 260 weeks (fourth-most of all time), and finished as the year-end No. 1 five times: 1975 through 1977, 1980, and 1981. Evert won 157 singles titles, including 18 majors (a record seven French Open titles and a joint-record six US Open titles). Alongside Martina Navratilova, her greatest rival, Evert dominated women's tennis from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s. In the following three audio clips from 1971, Evert is interviewed prior to the US Open, by Howard Cosell at the tournament, and then after her return home to Ft.

    Summary:
    The Checkers speech was an address made on September 23, 1952, by Senator Richard Nixon (R-CA) at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, six weeks before the 1952 United States presidential election, in which he was the Republican nominee for Vice President. Nixon had been accused of improprieties relating to a fund established by his backers to reimburse him for his political expenses. His place was in doubt on the Republican ticket, so he flew to Los Angeles and delivered a half-hour television address in which he defended himself, attacked his opponents, and urged the audience to contact the Republican National Committee to tell it whether he should remain on the ticket. During the speech, he stated that he intended to keep one gift, regardless of the outcome -- a black-and-white Cocker Spaniel that his children had named Checkers, thus giving the address its popular name.
