This Country of Ours, Complete Set

Stories of Explorers and Pioneers, Virginia, New England, the Middle and Southern Colonies, the French in America, the Struggle for Liberty and the United States Under the Constitution

In This Country of Ours, H. E. Marshall tells the story of America from the start of the settlements, to 1912, ending with the presidency of Woodrow Wilson. She tells it in a fashion that children are able to understand, and that will keep them interested. Marshall has filled this book with about 100 years of history, breaking them down by regions.

Love the music

The only thing that I do not like is how the voices change at least once a chapter
But other wise great!

Love this book

This is a great book , and it is a very good book and it’s exiting.

Interesting, but....

Any additional comments?

The way the narrations are presented is very confusing. They switch between each other in the middle of a chapter and at times in the middle of a paragraph! They have occasionally missed words and complete sentences. For example, in the first chapter, page 5, paragraph 5, sentence 2 and 3 are left out. On page 9, paragraph 1, sentence 3 reads 'Thus the first white man was laid to rest in Vineland the Good'. The word 'white' was left out - that makes a huge difference! Native people surely had been buried there, Thorvald was the first 'white' man to be buried there not the first man. Little things like these are annoyances but don't affect the overall performance.

Trying to use for homeschooling...

In chapter 1 and already it’s jumping and skipping parts of the book. 😡 Why do these audio books do this garbage?!

Annoying music, free on librivox

The narrators do a fair job of showing emotion and excitement for the stories being told, but the loud, chiming colonial music at the start of every chapter is incredibly annoying. Also, after buying I found this book is in the public domain, so it's FREE on librivox. Wasted a credit.
