Fascinating story!
Revisado: 03-29-23
The author places Boone in the greater context of the huge upheaval that was going on in the 18th century American colonies and early republic. It makes for a compelling portrayal but the writing style is often too florid and grandiose for a historical account. Well worth the 20 hours of listening though.

Both a captivating narrative and a book of environmental and historical significance, American Buffalo tells us as much about ourselves as Americans as it does about the creature who perhaps best of all embodies the American ethos.

Captivating

Mr. Rinella’s delivery of his own words is like he’s telling you the whole story over a round of beers. It’s completely engaging even if he is a bit gaga over the animal. This is history— somewhat like Twains Feast. But also it’s a relatable story for anyone who’s spent time in the wild.

John Jacob Astor was the best-known and most important American businessman for more than a half-century. His career encompassed the country's formative economic years from the precarious days following the American Revolution to the emergence of an urban-centered manufacturing economy in the late 1840s.

Fascinating bit of history
Revisado: 02-03-22
This is scholarly work and the author takes his time to place his work in the context of other works. Not for everyone. It was good to learn about a period of American history that is not given much attention in school or at least not with the business perspective.
The presentation is challenging. A bit like the sound track for a junior high film strip. I don’t fault the narrator, but the producer.
