Discover the Forerunners series of four new audiobooks, available now, and hear why these are vital additions to libraries’ nonfiction collections on audio.
Celebrating a decade of Columbia Global Reports, the Forerunners series revives groundbreaking works of investigative journalism and incisive analysis originally published over a century ago and newly recorded on audio from Books on Tape. These texts, once forgotten or underexplored, reflect CGR’s core mission: fearless reporting, global perspective, and intellectual rigor. Each selection remains strikingly relevant today, offering historical insights that challenge contemporary perspectives and reaffirm the power of journalism to shape the world.
From Cuba in War Time, a foundational text in the history of American media, to a moral voice unafraid to indict injustice in Race Adjustment, to Drift and Mastery, a fearless vision that challenges us to rethink democratic leadership, and Campaigns in Curiosity by a forgotten pioneer in journalism’s history, these audiobooks will surprise listeners with their modern insights and valuable lessons from writers whose voices deserve to be heard today.
