    Story

    At the urging of his wife, Elizabeth, the Duke of York (known to the royal family as "Bertie") began to see speech therapist Lionel Logue in a desperate bid to cure his lifelong stammer. Little did the two men know that this unlikely friendship - between a future monarch and a commoner born in Australia - would ultimately save the House of Windsor from collapse.

    Howard says: "As enjoyable as the film, and then some."
    "outstanding KIng's Speech"

    Story
    Would you consider the audio edition of The King's Speech to be better than the print version?

    Since I haven't read the print version, I really can't give an opinion at this time. All I know is that it was remarkably good.


    What did you like best about this story?

    I like history, so it really provided me with some real good facts about that time in the English history


    What does Simon Vance bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    a unique inside of the relationship between the King and his Doctor.....


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    It made me laugh , but it also made me cry, even at that period of time people didnt understand the horrible helplessness people had with stuttering, and made fun of it.


    Any additional comments?

    no
