Editorial reviews

H. E. Marshall wrote Our Island Story over a century ago, and its popularity continues to rise. Now this audiobook provides the listener with a collection of the best and most engaging stories from H.E. Marshall's three volume set. The collection is narrated by Anna Bentinck and Daniel Philpott, whose voices are charming and inviting. The listener will entranced by their British accents and their soothing tone. H. E. Marshall conceived Our Island Story as a collection of bedtime stories, and this is perhaps what makes this history book so appealing and delightful.
