Disappointing

I was disappointed with this audio book as it was superficial, skimming over subjects. It didn't add any more insight than what I could have gotten from Wikipedia. It read as a list of events. I was looking for more.

The narrator North American twang was very pronounced and I found myself switching off.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
