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.

Good Book

HE Marshall does a great job telling the stories despite the outdated terminology for different people groups. At the end of Chapter 19 the story jumps back to talk about John Smith. The editors need to go back and fix this chapter.

Watch out for different info from book

Chapter 19 was different from the printed book and excluded the last 1/3 of the chapter about the Commonwealth and Cavaliers, but included some story about Smith returning to England and being buried (I don’t even know where this text comes from in the book.) That’s as far as we have read, but I’ll be sure to pay attention from now on and not just trust the recording.

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.
