Change is a result of each of the choices we make and how they come to life. Unlocking the secret to change is about embracing the unknown. Rather than a prescription or step-by-step directions, creating and navigating sustainable change requires a new set of guiding principles and core values. In discovering the optimal tools and conditions for change, we can adopt them as a mindset and live them as intentional choices. Change can be approached and embraced, now and in an ongoing way. But that isn't always easy.

Really delightful. Ms. DeAngelis has truly inspired me to embrace new ventures and challenges. Excellent performance, too. You can tell she was a classically-trained vocalist.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 198
Inhabiting the small corner where France meets Spain, the Basque speak their own language, Euskera. Evidence of their culture showed up as early as 218 BC, and now, with a population of 2.4 million, their influence on our world has been all-pervasive. In this "delectable portrait of an uncanny, indomitable nation," listeners will be enthralled as Kurlansky delves into the roots of an intriguing population, and shows us why they continue.

Conquerors tells the almost forgotten story of how Portugal's navigators cracked the code of the Atlantic winds, launched the expedition of Vasco da Gama to India, and beat the Spanish to the spice kingdoms of the East - then set about creating the first long-range maritime empire.

Fascinating book on Portuguese conquest

In addition to being interesting ready, the voice performance really elevated the entertainment value of the book. A delightful listen.

Mark Kurlansky's first global food history since the best-selling Cod and Salt; the fascinating cultural, economic and culinary story of milk and all things dairy - with recipes throughout. According to the Greek creation myth, we are so much spilt milk; a splatter of the goddess Hera's breast milk became our galaxy, the Milky Way.

Good book undermined by robotic voice performance
Revisado: 10-23-18
This is my fourth book from Mark Kurlansky, and unfortunately it's the worst. I love his books, so it's still pretty decent, although it's not his best in terms of pure content. What knocks it further is the awful narration. The oddly placed and distracting pauses, in addition to some of the pronunciation issues, had me thinking the narrator's name was a stage name for a computerized translation bot. A bit of searching indicates the narrator is an actual flesh and blood human, although I wouldn't have suspected that from the performance.
If you want to see a great Kurlansky book made even better by a phenomenal voice performance, check out "Salt".
