Probably because of where I live (Northeast), this is my favorite Michener Book. The narrator is just awful. Robotic, almost like a news telecast or a computer rendering of text. What a pity. Most all of his books have the same narrator. Just because of that I am not sure I will buy another. All of his books are so good. I guess I should give some credit to anyone who can orate for 50 hrs and 35 mins.

Entertaining book! I love the characters and the stories, but I also love the dialogue that he has between opposing opinions of the current times. A Quaker discussing slavery with a plantation owner was particularly fascinating. Michener weaves together fascinating characters while still managing to bring up relevant issues regarding personal freedom, religion, racial relations and politics.

One hundred years - all new people.

I really enjoy Michener because his novels include lessons in History, Science, and human nature. But they are SO long and I’m such a slow reader, so listening as I drive long distances and then reading when I can helps me plow through the saga!
