Another winner from Audible‼️

I love novels about the Civil War. The books i usually read are 20 hours or more but when I saw this short one from audible I thought I’ll give it a try. I was not disappointed.

It’s a very realistic story done very realistically by the narrators and I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I highly recommend it.

With every drop of blood

This was definitely different from most books I have read about the civil war. It took me a while to warm up to it. Once I did I felt like I was part of the story riding in that wagon with Johnny and Cush. The authors brought the story alive with vivid descriptions. Easy listening I would recommend as a mixture of fact and fiction.
