Summary
The infamous Baron Munchausen is capable of everything and anything. Escaping from a hungry lion’s jaws, shooting a male red deer with cherry stones or climbing a beanstalk all the way to the moon are but a small part of his adventures. Every new one is more surprising and exciting than the previous one. If you want to learn more about Baron Munchausen, do not hesitate to embark on this journey.
B. J. Harrison started his Classic Tales Podcast back in 2007, wanting to breathe new life into classic stories. He masterfully plays with a wide array of voices and accents and has since then produced over 500 audiobooks. Now in collaboration with SAGA Egmont, his engaging narration of these famous classics is available to readers everywhere.
Rudolf Erich Raspe (1736 - 1794) was a German writer, scientist and librarian, best known for his collection of tall tales "The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen" (1785). After he finished his education in natural science and philology at Göttingen and Leipzig, Raspe worked as a librarian of the Landgraf’s collection of gems and coins. Later on, he was charged with stealing from Landgraf’s gems and was forced to run away to England to escape arrest.
