Excellent

Excellent narration, along with an interesting glimpse back to the issues in that era of time. Along with giving us a look at these founders who became leaders. Well done and enjoyed.Given audio for my voluntary review

Felt like a cliff’s notes version + opinion

Literally zipped by his presidency in less than 5 minutes. Didn’t tackle any real struggles or deep substance. Felt a bit like a college kid’s essay about Madison including broad opinion statements like “since this was bad for the nation” Madison did X. Do not recommend
