Of Windmills and War Free Audiobook Download by Diane Moody


There are many types of wars. One that is ongoing, since about the year 200 B.C is the war against windmills.

When a group of people from the neighborhood are rounded up and taken to a concentration camp, they travel on foot. When they're captured in their homes, they're told they're going to be "repatriated" to their country instead of killed. The journey turns out to be far more difficult than any of them could imagine with no end in sight.

This is a powerful, thought-provoking book about the lives of people living in post-colonial Tobin, West Africa. It tells the story of a tribal chief who is trying to fight against the invasion of an illegal gold mine that's been illegally constructed on their lands. Dealing with this topic can be difficult because there are many themes present and it is hard to understand some of them. However, listening to this audiobook will give listeners insight into what life was like for these people when they were fighting for their rights, culture and land.

The book is set in a family farm during the 1850s. The plot centers around the story of Millie, an African American girl and her family. The main character travels to England to live with her cousins and find refuge from a very abusive relationship.

In this story, a young boy and his family leave New England for America in the hope of finding freedom and land. The boy's father, a famous clockmaker, creates a new kind of clock that is able to tell time by the wind. It works well until things get tough and they are forced to sell it to buy food. This book tells the story of how hard times can lead to ingenuity.

Of Windmills and War is a beautifully written story about war, peace, love, loss, and everything in between. It is narrated by Justine Eyre and is one of the best audiobooks that I have listened to. It was engaging and captivating from beginning to end.
