When William Kamkwamba was just 14 years old, his family told him that he must leave school and come home to work on the farm - they could no longer afford his fees. This is his story of how he found a way to make a difference, how he brought light to his family and village and hope to his nation.

INSPIRING
Revisado: 08-29-22
A very inspiring story! You can learn a lot about the struggles poverty and famine means in an agricultural region and the power of education. I sometimes struggled to understand the African accent (English is not my first language), but it added to the presentation of the text.

In the last half of the fourth century, the Roman Empire began to feel the stress of renewed pressure on its borders as Germanic and Asian tribes moved westward. As these tribes settled, they began to form alliances and to convert to Christianity. But when these very capable tribesmen began to enlist in the Roman military, the empire began to fall under the control of mercenary soldiers.

Great perspective, but a bit outdated
Revisado: 05-17-20
I listened to the first part in paralell with the history of Rome podcast. I like that this does not end at the end of the 5th century, but looks at the migrations before and after as part of the same process. Some parts are outdated, I am sure there are newer results. The author likes to spend much time on his own research topics. I missed an overview from the end. I liked the sound effects at the beginning and end of chapters. :)
