This IS COMPLETE

Unlike another reviewer said, this version IS COMPLETE. It contains all 110 chapters that are in the book. Being Americans, I also appreciate my children being able to hear a British accent, unlike other versions. We are listening to this as part of the AmblesideOnline curriculum. We LOVE the stories!

Fantastic

Looking forward to using this as a spine for our homeschool curriculum! The kids are going to love it.

History you don’t want to put down!

I loved learning the flow of the history of England by hearing a series of biographies.
I feel I understand it better now!

Excellent, although chapters 111-114 are omitted

Slight differences in wording from my print version throughout. Chapter 110 is VERY different, and chapters 111-114, which are in the print version, are missing. I assume there is some explanation relating to editions or copyright, but not sure what it is.

Wonderfully Captivating Tale

This story is a wonderful blend of mythology and history. The author shows the story of the British people and the way in which it has grown into the nation it is today. The tale is told in a captivating way, while still accurately retelling the history of Britain
