In 1914, the war which was to have been wrapped up by Christmas had - in reality - only just begun, as all sides entrenched themselves deeper into the Great War. Christmas Eve, 1914 follows one company of British officers as they rotate forward to spend their Christmas on the front lines, a mere 80 yards from the German guns. Upper- and working-class men and boys are thrown together into one trench and struggle to survive.

It was the best of times and the worst of times for Hollywood before the war. The box office was booming, and the studios’ control of talent and distribution was as airtight as could be hoped. But the industry’s relationship with Washington was decidedly uneasy - hearings and investigations into allegations of corruption and racketeering were multiplying, and hanging in the air was the insinuation that the business was too foreign, too Jewish, too "un-American" in its values and causes. Could an industry this powerful in shaping America’s mind-set really be left in the hands of this crew?

Where does Five Came Back rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of my favorites now. I learned so much from this book! I've always had an interest in WW II movies of all types and this shed so much light on many films I've seen and many more I want to search for.
What does Andrew Garman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I enjoyed listening to Mr. Garman and thought he did an excellent job of relating the information.

What did you like best about Agatha Christie: An Autobiography? What did you like least?
It was interesting. However, because it is an old live recording, there is quite a bit of static which makes it more difficult to understand at times.

This rendition will put you to sleep.
Revisado: 05-30-14
Would you try another book from Roberta Kagan and/or Kevin S. Martin?
I'm unsure of the author but will definitely avoid this narrator!
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
This narrator has a very monotone voice and I just could not get into the book. Because the subject interests me, I will try to read it when I have the time.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
This narrator was so monotone that I couldn't concentrate on the jest of the story.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

This is one of the best, if not the best, of the audible editions I have listened to so far.

The cast of characters presenting the book makes it more gripping as the diary entries are read by in a different voice and allows for more realism.

In 1939, the Germans invaded the town of Lodz, Poland, and moved the Jewish population into a small part of the city called a ghetto. As the war progressed, 270,000 people were forced to settle in the ghetto under impossible conditions. At the end of the war, there were about 800 survivors. Of those who survived, only twelve were children. This is the story of one of the twelve.
