Acerca de esta escucha

Peru is a land of majesty and wonder where myth, legend, and history all come together. And this audiobook gives you a front-row seat!

The land of Peru is one that, for many, seems far away and distant. Even for those living relatively nearby geographically, Peru can seem just out of reach. After all, Peru is situated high in the Andes on the western coast of South America. Those who dare to live at this high of an elevation have learned to live on their own terms.

The Inca leader Manco II, for example, displayed his tenacity by heading a rebel kingdom in the depths of the Amazon even after much of the Inca Empire of his ancestors had been overrun by the Spanish conquistadors.

Manco’s struggle was later picked up by Túpac Amaru II, who waged war against the Spanish occupation. Túpac Amaru II would be captured and executed for daring to revolt against the Spanish Crown, but his legend would live on in the hearts and minds of Peruvians everywhere.

Fast forward to Peru’s independence from Spain, and one finds the heroic Simón Bolívar. He was pivotal in the independence of Peru, as well as a whole slew of Latin American countries, which he was put in charge of at various times during his dynamic career.

Great heroes like Simón Bolívar certainly stand out, but so do other intriguing and captivating characters from Peru’s past. From the great Inca ruler Atahualpa to Francisco Pizarro to modern-day Peruvian presidents like Alberto Fujimori and Dina Boluarte, Peru has quite a story to tell!

In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:

  • The origins of Peruvian civilization
  • The rise and fall of the Inca Empire
  • The explorations of conquistadors like Francisco Pizarro
  • Revolutionaries like Túpac Amaru II and resistance to Spanish rule
  • Peru’s struggle for independence

I appreciate hearing the history. I could have done without the play-by-play on each battle, and given more time to the pre-Inca history and more information about Peru less information about the transfer of power from year to year. Was Peru the entire landmass and broken down into Bolivia, Argentina and Chile? That’s what I concluded from this rendering of history? Were there originally no geographic lines of countries until later? And did Europe install those geographic lines during colonization; similar to the division of the? It was a short book, that led me to more questions that I will continue to investigate.

The narration was all right, some of the high notes and low notes at the end of each word could be reduced.

Thank you!

Engaging high level history. Poor narration. Overall worth a listen.

I wanted a high level history book that traces the history of Peru, and this book did a good job providing that. It covers Peruvian history from the pre-written history period up through today. It spent perhaps a disproportionate time describing the conflict between the Spanish empire and the Incan empire, but that part was also the most interesting and engagingly told. The narrator was difficult to listen to. Every sentence had the same odd lilting intonation, and he mispronounced some English words here and there. I was able to eventually get used to the narrator and still enjoy the book overall.

Concise.

We were traveling to Peru to hike Machu Pichu.. This is an excellent concise introduction.
