Loved it. A vivid account of George Washington and the naked and starving Patriots

Slow start, okay middle, bad end

Revisado: 09-14-18

I had to quit halfway through the next to last chapter. Got way too sappy and self glorifying for me.

Forgotten Saga of unnecessary misuse

Revisado: 09-05-18

Fine research, story presentation, and narration, of a forgotten catastrophe in American history now conjured up in our memories only by black and white snippets from an American classic novel and award-winning motion picture.
The true account told here highlights how little was told to us in our historical teachings about the true causation of this catastrophic decade in this area of our country, or about the true suffering it brought about to our displaced Native Americans, the innocent horses, cattle and livestock, and people driven by either greed, blind ambition, or dreams of attaining a stakehold to provide for their families and future generations, and the land that was brutally forced out of it's true and natural purpose into into something it could never sustain.

Great narration and historical perspective.

Revisado: 06-20-18

Narrator was outstanding, and such great accents. He was telling a story, not reading it. I will definitely follow this narrator.
Great plot and interesting perspective on what it was probably like living under the 3rd Reich. Brutal, sad, and scary. A good reminder what it could be like to live under a sadistic dictatorship.

Light on Trump, Heavy on the Gingrich Manifrsto

Revisado: 07-23-17

Disappointed, as a fan of Trump I was looking for more behind the scenes stories about his childhood, career, and the actual working of the campaign. Instead we get a gloss over of all of that, and the last two thirds of the book on what Gingrich would do. He has some great ideas he but did Trump a disservice by sneaking them into a book that was supposed to be about Trump. Will be hard for me to view Gingrich the same again, now that I know what he's really about. Self serving. I'm glad Trump had sense enough not to bring him into the administration.

Good history - Annoying narration

Revisado: 02-11-17

Very interesting for a newbie to this important and interesting history of the region. I found the narrator a bit annoying, especially, about 100 times throughout the course his asking a question and then saying "you got it" like a half second after the question. About half way through I found myself shouting back at him #you got it" before he even said it, which most of the time he did. I'm surprised no one caught that, or that he wasn't annoyed at himself.

Interesting insight but more like a rote memoir

Revisado: 02-06-13

More like a diary or chronology of events than a story. Could have been more dramatic in the storytelling even though it was true. My attention was kept more by the importance of the historical event than the drama, character development, or narration.

Starkness and Fortitude is Riveting

Revisado: 01-30-13

Entertaining and educational from beginning to end. Everyone would benefit from knowing about the stark harsh reality of the extremes of our planet, and what people have endured to explore and survive to tell about it. Amazing how man can adapt and overcome. A rewarding listen no matter what your genre. This one is worth the time.

Educational and Entertaining but a bit repetitive

Revisado: 01-02-13

I enjoy any history book and probably ignore more than the average reader in story or performance shortcomings. This book contained a wealth of history and unique perspective, although I found it somewhat repetitive. The performance and production was good and easy to follow and listen to, but I don't think many non-history buffs would have stuck with it.
