Stephen Fry never disappoints
Fascinating look at many aspects of the Edwardian time period. Great for a medium length road trip.

Superb!
I was hooked right from the start. History is truly brought to life. I am so impressed with the production value. I knew it would be great, but it exceeded my expectations!!

Wonderfully entertaining and informative
This series grabbed me with interest with the opening dialogue. Maybe its because I’m english but I love the wit and the history I’m learning. Impressed that they made an effort to be inclusive and intrigued by how society changed from the Victorian era. Even my daughter was caught up by the beginning narration and agreed it was worth listening to. This is an important point in history as it leads up to the beginning of world war 1 and it explores racism but also does a good job at highlighting accomplishments of people very often overlooked and ignored in history and narrations.

Let down by some irritating historians
Stephen Fry is, as usual, a superb narrator.
I had to abandon this audiobook as some of the historians chosen had extremely irritating voices.
