wonderful material
Fantastic miscellany. A variety of readers would help as there are so many authors and it's quite long.

Real value for money!
This is a collection of blog posts/essays from the English Historical Fiction Authors website and, as a result, most people will find much to enjoy even if they don't have an interest in every aspect or period of British history.
For obvious reasons, I was interested particularly in the sections on Robin Hood but look at the running time - this audiobook lasts for more than a full day! You WILL find much here to entertain you, I'm sure. All the pieces are well written and the narrator is fantastic. Her reading is not too dry, which could be the case when reading about history, and her voice is pleasant and engaging.
If you enjoy non-fiction audiobooks and are interested in British history you'll get your money's worth here, even if (like me) you skip the odd section.
