This is one of the best book I have ever listened to; I learned so much about the Civil War and Ulysses Grant that I am am flabbergasted. The writing and reading are crisp, clear and engaging. It is very long but this was a truly remarkable man in an amazing time. His role in helping blacks and the healing of the country are not widely known. Everyone should listen to this book!!

I have read all of Faulkner’s books, many several times. I decided to use my Audible membership to listen to this amazing work and am glad that I did! The reading was superb and very dramatic. The novel may stun some readers by it’s raciness but in our day of pornography I doubt it will offend many. The writing can be very challenging at times to comprehend but like the reading of Shakespeare will richly reward the persistent and curios listener or reader. I highly recommend this Audible book!

Marvelous but terribly sad story about the Civil War and the men who fought in it. It brings to life the battles and battle fields from both sides. I’m thankful that the author has put so much into this splendid work!

This audio book is great! I think anyone listening to it should have a sound knowledge of what Faulkner wrote. I have read almost all of his writings. This book analyzed what drove Faulkner to become who he became. Excellent job!’

This is another wonderful book by Richard Rohr. He is a loving compassionate man who has a lot to teach us. He uses the life of Saint Francis of Assisi to teach us about how to let go of things and live a fuller life. I recommend it highly regardless of your religious beliefs.

Very interesting story about the use of deception to fool the Nazis in the war to help save Allied lives. Fun to listen to; well done in the retelling.
