Performance?

The narrator is so difficult to listen to that I almost returned the book. Good content, horrible reading.

Good book, poor audio version

The book itself is pretty good with some interesting lessons to learn from a different time, but the performance is very sub-par. The narrator swallows words, uses inconsistent cadence and has some very odd volume changes and just overall poor audio quality.
