a Pleasure

this was my first Churchill book. Nothing short of amazing. His style is unique and his prose sounds like a poem. Lots of great insights and wisdom. He was truly great man. Narration was a pure delight.

Another triumph for Sir Winston.

interesting insights into the American Revolution and the War of 1812 as told from an English perspective. Good insights indirectly into our present times as well.

Historical Overview of Britain

Churchill had an amazing grasp of history, and his research is thorough. It is surprising that in view of his busy and intensive political life, that he found the time to write such a detailed account of the various revolutions that took place between 1688 and 1815. His description of the American war of Independence is covered objectively and in great detail, exposing the failings of the British to subdue the colonists.
Churchill has an excellent grasp of language which flows and is easy to listen to. He brings the battles alive with his rhetoric,transferring you to the scene and making you feel involved in it. Christian Rodska reads with clarity and expressiveness that make listening enjoyable

Fantastic

Much love for Winston Churchill's history books here, but the narrator is perfect for the task and has a clear and engaging performance.

Good straight forward history

What made the experience of listening to The Age of Revolution the most enjoyable?

The narrator is clear and the history is told in an easily understood, straightforward manner. Often times an historian gets sidetracked, but not Churchill. Also, its fascinating to hear the history of the American Revolutionary War from the English perspective
