AVOID DEAVER BROWN AT ALL COSTS

Deaver Brown is the worst narrator ever and should quit doing this if he respects books at all.

Awful

I suffered through a few minutes of the text. The author seems to say he has special knowledge of the Indian, presumedly because he is one. He seems to dislike scholarship about Indians. But he speaks about the deep spiritual sense of the Indian without making any distinction among tribes, their specific views about their particular spirit-Gods or their specific worship habits. I was obviously hoping for a very different approach
