Critics Review

  • “An excellent introduction for students at the high school or college levels.”

    Midwest Book Review
  • “The production is a clear, neatly packaged history of our nation from its early days through post–Civil War Reconstruction. As such, Jeff Riggenbach’s narration reflects the structured, easy-to-understand presentation of dates, events, and people…Overall, Riggenbach presents the information in a deep tone and exacting cadence that make this fact-filled audiobook an easy listen.”
