Unabridged Audiobook
It’s a fantastic story and narration
This is one of the best books I have EVER read (that is, listened to)! The history of the Panama Canal fascinates me. David McCullough is a spectacular story teller and his book, "The Path Between the Seas" is good, but overall Matthew Parker's book is better. It has more details and gives a broader picture of what went on, including the political battles and other intrigue, with a writing style that is always clear. You get a sense of being there. The narrator took a little getting used to at first, but only because Nelson Runger was my favorite (he died recently at age 81); William Dufris has just the right approach; lively and always easy to listen to. Audiobooks.com has the best business model AND customer service; customers do not have to pay outrageous amounts of money to listen to books that would otherwise be cost-prohibitive.
