Customer Reviews
Good Book, terrible narrator.
It’s a shame that Admiral Halsey’s story was told by this narrator. I struggled through 20% of the book before I couldn’t take it any longer. Unable to pronounce basic navy terms and locations of battle, this guy didn’t prepare his narration at all. The material is good if you can overlook the constant errors in narration. But, I had to quit due to getting angry at the lack of preparation on the part of the narrator. I feel Halsey deserves better than this.
