Great book for the price

Book was short and very interesting. The narrator was just terrible and really distracted from the content.

I was really looking forward to listening to this title and I really don’t like to knock people who give up their time to do this but unfortunately the narrator has quite a monotone voice and it really loses the whole story and I couldn’t listen after a few pages. Be nice to get it re recorded as it looks like a great story.

Short and interesting. The narrator sounded like a kid rushing to read his paragraph out loud in class for the first chapter and was more bearable for the rest

For a book over 100 years old, insightful and understated. American reader of a British story left a little lacking.
