The only way I could do that was if you had to do a lot more work and then you would be done by yourself.

The most common form is an internal or external pressure regulator that can be attached to a single cylinder and then attached directly.

The hardships that they endured

Nothing in particular, but if you did ask I can’t say, for, it was an overall splendid book

Phenomenal !!

Masterfully written and read. Highly recommend everyone read/listen to this. Loved the simplicity but yet the clarity of how this book was written. It made learning history fun.

Helpful

I use this for school and it’s very helpful to use. I would still recommend taking notes.

Finally!!

I've been checking for this for years. Hooray! We use these books in our homeschool. I'm happy we have the option to listen on audible now.

This is my favorite of the four in the series. I wish the others were written more at this level. The first is especially dumbed down. I understand why Bauer wrote them that way, so the child grows up with them, but there is such a huge difference in the writing between 1 and 4.

This book begins when Queen Victoria was ruling England, and the last page in this references Nelson Mandel being elected as president of South Africa in 1994.

The reader does a great job. I've been through 5 chapters so far, listening and following along in the book. Most was the same, but I did notice a few additions.
