Both Entertaining and Interesting

Revisado: 03-06-23

The story kept my interest and I thought the reader did a great job. I also learned a lot about art and the art market that I didn't know.

Funny, sad, wonderful!

Revisado: 12-31-22

My attention never wavered through the entire book. Fleas delivery was perfect.
It's worth it to read the book just to find all the great music you haven't listened to and all the great music you have, but you've forgotten about.
I recommend this book.

Rollicking good fun

Any book written by Barbara Mertz will get the archeology right. But this is also one of her funniest books.
I like it enough for repeat listening on long road trips.

An excellent read of an interesting life

Revisado: 09-27-22

I enjoy biographies but this one stands out. Lafayette the man is interesting, the times he lived in are interesting and the author ties the people and the historical epoch together to create a great tale.
I had no idea how little I knew about to Lafayette's history outside of the American revolution.

I expected a good reading from the man who created the History podcast, this was an excellent reading. That's not always true when an author reads their own book.
I will be listening to this one again.

Interesting read

Revisado: 06-08-22

This was more of a journalist report than a story. I was interested in the life he experienced while out of money but there was no plot.
The reader did a great job. The dry delivery made it an enjoyable listen.

A radio show

Revisado: 02-14-22

This is what you would call, a relican good time! If you enjoy Douglas Adams you will enjoy this. The theatrical performance aspects are wonderful, but sometimes the sound effects overwhelm the dialogue.

Still, a great lesson.
This recording includes added features. They describe how this got made and include interviews with Douglas Adams, himself. Priceless!

Deeply felt, compelling story

Revisado: 02-13-22

I think this was an interesting book but it was an excellent audiobook. The performance really made the story, and the man come alive. I would recommend it to other people who were interested in the interactions of man and our environment.

Witty Social History

Revisado: 01-16-22

It is easy to take our own moral framework and project it back in history. We tend to think there are universal truths, what is always right, and what is always wrong. I really learned a lot from this book.

But just as importantly, this was a great read. The writing was witty and the delivery was perfect.

Fun, gossipy memoir

Revisado: 10-12-21

Everything you never knew you wanted to know about food writers and the blossoming of American cooking in the sixties and seventies. Lotts of good stories and incredible food.
A really enjoyable read
