All in all, this is a memorable, human look at history." --Starred Review, Publishers Weekly "The Civil War comes alive ...Bull Run is perfectly suited to audio format and this production offers a rich mix of vocal styles and will entertain a wide range of ages and interest groups." --School Library Journal "The sixteen voices in this multi-voices production allow the book to be heard as it was meant to be: an intricate piece of music with movements, recurring themese and interwoven melodies. Overall this recording surpasses the fine version by Recorded Books." --Horn Book What is truly in the minds of the people who fight a war? Bull Run is the voices of the frontline soldiers, their friends and families, their leaders. North/south, white/black, adult/child- a disparate and compelling choir of voices relates the carnage of war in a totally unique way. |
