Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 8
In 1826, when the story begins, the region was claimed by both Mexico and the United States. Neither country knew much about the lands crossed by such rivers as the Guadalupe, Brazos, Nueces, Trinity, and Rio Grande. Jean Louis Berlandier, a French naturalist, was part of a team sent out by the Mexican Boundary Commission to explore the area. His role was to collect specimens of flora and fauna and to record detailed observations of the landscapes and peoples through which the exploring party traveled.

Unbearable rhythmic, robotic narration of a book I really wanted to read.
Revisado: 01-26-25
This was a book I needed/wanted to read as a master naturalist. Trying to make myself listen to it felt almost abusive. Couldn't believe that a self aware, actual human being could read like this. I am going to try to explain what its like. The words come in inexplicable, bazaar, hynotic, rythmic waves without proper breaks between some words, especially if they are in the middle of a wave. He has lazy, poor pronunciation, that coukd have been fixed with just a little homework. Sorry, I am not an expert on narration terminology and explanation, but I have listened to probably at least 1,500 audio books over the years, and I have heard the best, and now, some of the worst. I hope he finds a good paying job doing something else, and audible doesn't waste my time and money with anymore of this poor naration. How did this slip through the cracks? Does he ask family and friendsvto write reviews?

OK to laugh at / mock those "backward Arkansans"?
Revisado: 02-11-24
I can take a joke about my rural Arkansas culture when it is funny and not just mean, but the way they laughed at/mocked THOSE- people-from-down-THERE wasn't funny and there was real disdain in it. I love my culture. There are beautiful things about it We deserve basic human dignity, and not if we change to fit in some mold made up for us. Our voices twang; we speak in idioms; and we are rural. Are you bigoted against us.
