Very captivating - certainly not completely true to her story but adapted well into a book. The narrator did a great job.

SUCH A GREAT IMAGE OF THE LIFE OF THIS WOMAN

Revisado: 04-01-25

I bought this book a long time ago and finally have listened to it and I'm thoroughly impressed by it. I feel like we got a great look at a very tragic lady who rose to the heights of courage and dignity in the midst of times she couldn't control. I recommend this book.

A WONDERFUL STORY OF AN AMAZING LADY

Revisado: 09-17-24

I really enjoyed this - It took me longer to get through this than I would have thought...I usually listen to audiobooks while at work but I found myself doing a lot more pausing because I wanted to take in what she said. I know we all imagine that in similar circumstances, we'd be as brave as Nancy and fight against occupiers even though it could cost us, our families and loved ones their lives. But history shows us that far too often we sit back or, even worse, go along with those powerful forces with gusto. I admire this woman for her tenacity, courage, toughness and spunk. Excellent book and I'm glad I bought it. Looking forward to listening again another time.

PULLING THE CURTAIN BACK ON CAMELOT

Revisado: 07-17-24

I knew for some years that the Kennedy Camelot myth was exactly that. My mom has always been fascinated by JFK's assassination since it happened during her formative years; so I've probably heard more about the Kennedy's that your average child of the 80s. This book was incredibly eye opening as to how dark and depraved the Kennedy men have been. Again, for some time I knew there were a lot of skeletons in the closet but when you see page after page of this recurring pattern of behavior, it's quite damaging to the good will many of us have retained for the Kennedy's. I walked by Ted Kennedy's grave the day he was interred in Arlington (merely by happenstance) and honestly had I known so clearly about the depths of his depravity, I might have behaved differently.
I think what I really came away with was a feeling of disgust in the way the "Media" have been behaving as gate keepers for what information the public is allowed to know about their favorite politicians and celebrities. THINK VERY CAREFULLY about the things we've seen in the past few years...who they vilify, who they demonize, who they run cover for, and who they outright lie for. They really haven't changed their tactics...but I think the advent of social media and the internet have robbed them of their monopoly on the curtain or the gate. Food for thought...

WELL WRITTEN - REALLY WANT TO HEAR THE UPDATE

Revisado: 07-02-24

Lady Colin Campbell is a wonderful author and personality. This book is well written - I feel like she gave Meghan a lot more benefit of the doubt than she has turned out to deserve...but it shows she has good perspective. I'm excited to read the updated version!

AN AMAZING BOOK

Revisado: 05-07-24

With the first chapter or two, I wondered how the author could fill a whole book with the last couple months of activities of the Romanovs without boring me to death. To my great surprise, Helen Rappaport did an amazing job of introducing us to the family, those who surrounded them and those who determined their sad fate. I'll be checking out more of her books and I'm grateful this one was made available for subscribers.

WONDERFUL

Revisado: 05-02-24

Like many others, I've watched the movies and series depictions of the life of Queen Victoria...but unlike those that I've seen, this bridged the gap between her young and old self...and I found it enlightening. I'm SO glad that the author delved into the Abdul Karim issue because I was about to watch the "Victoria and Abdul" movie which seems to give a VERY different version of their relationship. The narrator has an extremely pleasant voice and I enjoyed this! 21 hours well spent!

Wonderful!

Tim Curry did an amazing job with this incredible book! I'll be listening to this every year for sure! I was thoroughly creeped out in the leadup to Marley's appearance, and found my eyes welling up with tears in the 5th stave. Truly well done!

SUCH A GREAT BOOK

Revisado: 10-25-23

Having grown up as a false convert in the hyper-charismatic movement, this book was very crucial to pointing me to scripture for the truth about things I grew up believing. God had saved me a couple years after this book was released and it was my finding this conference a few years later that really caused me to question and come to a biblical understanding of those experiences. Thank you Pastor John for courageously and lovingly confronting this issue. God is not done saving people out of deception!
