Mindestens neunzehn weiteren Personen gab sie wiederholt Gift in nichttödlicher Dosis. Am 6. März 1828 wurde Gesche Gottfried verhaftet.

Von den frühen schüchternen Anfängen in kleinen walisischen Kneipen über die glamourösen Jahre in Las Vegas bis hin zum Comeback als gestandener Bluessänger: Mit gehörigem Witz und Understatement erzählt Tom Jones von den Ups und Downs seines bemerkenswerten Lebens. Ob mit Elvis, Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Robbie Williams oder Portishead - der Stil wechselte, aber seine Stimme blieb immer unverwechselbar.

Many tales from the Jazz Age reek of crime and corruption. But perhaps the era’s greatest political fiasco—one that resulted in a nationwide scandal, a public reckoning at the Department of Justice, the rise of J. Edgar Hoover, and an Oscar-winning film—has long been lost to the annals of history. In Crooked, Nathan Masters restores this story of murderers, con artists, secret lovers, spies, bootleggers, and corrupt politicians to its full, page-turning glory.

Most people have this idea that we should be trying to find our passion or discover our passion - like we're on some magical Easter egg hunt for our perfect calling in life. But instead of "finding our passion", what if we started creating a life we could be passionate about living?

Few people are aware that John Moses Browning - a tall, humble, cerebral man born in 1855 and raised as a Mormon in the American West - was the mind behind many of the world-changing firearms that dominated more than a century of conflict. He invented the design used in virtually all modern pistols, created the most popular hunting rifles and shotguns, and conceived the machine guns that proved decisive not just in World Wars I and II but nearly every major military action since. Yet few in America knew his name until he was into his 60s.

In our culture, there is a premium placed on finding our passion, as though somehow once we've found it, our lives will finally start to come together as we've always imagined. We've held onto these beliefs about passion and have made daily and even life-changing decisions based on the principle of following our passion.
