Customer Reviews
Few 'great' speeches and a lot of mediocre ones
This audiobook is like one of those Greatest Hits Albums, where there a few 'hit' artists on the front-cover and then the remainder are not exactly hits. Don't get me wrong, the speeches are important speeches, but you'd probably only name about four of them as the 'Great' speeches. The other really disappointing thing is Churchill only appears once, the rest are all US speeches. The idea of this audiobook is great, the actual book is poor. Save your money for when the really great speeches are available....
