Acerca de esta escucha

Drums along the Mohawk, Walter D. Edmonds' masterpiece, is not only the best historical novel about upstate New York since James Fenimore Cooper, it was also number one on the bestseller list for two years, only yielding to the epic Gone with the Wind.

This is the story of the forgotten pioneers of the Mohawk Valley during the Revolutionary War. Here Gilbert Martin and his young wife struggled and lived and hoped. Combating hardships almost too great to endure, they helped give to America a legend that still stirs the heart. In the midst of love and hate, life and death, danger and disaster, they stuck to the acres that were theirs and fought a war without ever quite understanding it. Drums along the Mohawk has been an American classic since its original publication in 1936.

Revolutionary War Soap Opera

As historical fiction goes, this novel remains true to the genre, relying on first person accounts of upstate New York's tribulations from British-backed raiders during the Revolutionary War. As adventure reading goes, this novel is a dull. Just when it seems like the author is going to delve into the details of skirmishes, he shifts our attention away to the fear and anguish of those whom observe the conflict from a distance (pregnant wives, old men and women, and those sheltering in the local fort). It all makes for too much third person accounting of battles and strife. I, personally, never felt the experiences of the combatants through first-hand accounting (fictional or otherwise) with enough detail to make it real.

I rate this audiobook two tomahawks down.

Drums Along the Mohawk

Boring! I couldn't even imagine any of the scenes. Don't know the area, so couldn't
figure out where everything was. Just found it to be boring! Enjoyed listening to the reader.

Good story and great history

I loved this book because it combines a great story with some history. We all forget how difficult it was to live on the frontier just a short 200 years ago. This book is great at depicting life on the frontier in America. At the time it's just upstate NY. Besides indians, there are the British forces who ravage the landscape. There were no grocery stores so you had to grow your own food. If it was destroyed, you starve to death.

Great history, but much ado about nothing…

......not the conflict, but the telling of the tale...yawn! The action provoked no nervous twitches and the characters hardly any sympathy... And this despite the authors obvious passion for this remarkable chapter in American history

Excellent story about my home

Would you listen to Drums Along the Mohawk again? Why?

I think any great book is worth a re-read or re-listened. Drums Along the Mohawk is one such book. Great story telling never goes out of style.

An American Masterpiece.

Brilliantly performed, and written to cross the ages. The storytelling, the characters—both historical and fictional—masterfully brought to life. This was a long read. A long listen. Entirely enjoyable, and enthralling. I love that I am still filled with the voices and stories of these people whom now collectively join my most treasured historical American fiction. Yes. A MASTERPIECE.

Good book but not great....

I had expected more than I should have from the title. It was a good book but definitely not a great book like I had hoped for. Mostly comprised of exploits by settlers, woodland natives and the Continental and Militia soldiers during the Revolution.
