While I often find history pretty dry, this book was engaging. It's a fun and funny way to begin learning about this material, although I sometimes got the sense that the author was using crude language just for the sophomoric hell of it. Not a big deal unless you're a puritan. A worse issue is that the audio editor seems to have gotten lazy as the book went on. I started hearing odd background noises and a repeated word or two about halfway in, and then the appendix doesn't seem to have been edited at all, as on several occasions you can hear the narrator pause, make adjustments, and then start the same sentence over. If I were the narrator I'd be pissed about that, because he did a pretty good job. Anyway, those issues aside this was a good listen in a genre that I probably don't expose myself to often enough.
