Audio was choppy
Revisado: 02-27-19
The content of this book was great. my complaint is how the audio was setup. Each paragraph or point was a chapter so the book had 180 chapters. It made it difficult to navigate or know how much longer the real chapters had left.

Historia
February 1862. The Civil War is less than one year old. The fighting has begun in earnest, and the nation has begun to realize it is in for a long, bloody struggle. Meanwhile, President Lincoln’s beloved eleven-year-old son, Willie, lies upstairs in the White House, gravely ill. In a matter of days, despite predictions of a recovery, Willie dies and is laid to rest in a Georgetown cemetery. “My poor boy, he was too good for this earth,” the president says at the time. “God has called him home.”

"Where might God stand?"

Odd, hard to follow, boring
Revisado: 05-15-18
I simply did not enjoy this book. The performance was good from the audio but the storing was odd, confusing, difficult to follow and most of all boring. I feel like this book got praised simply because of its concept and not the actual story.

Historia
From asking a waiter for an unusual substitution to urging a service manager to get your car finished sooner to swaying your significant other toward a particular film or show, many of the decisions you make are decided by talking. And no matter why you engage in face-to-face talk, there's no way to insulate yourself from the dangers of miscommunication. These 24 mind-opening lectures are your chance to learn more about how you communicate verbally, the common problems you can encounter in doing so, and how you can improve your own effectiveness.

Interesting Lectures with a Misleading Description
- De James Garritano en 08-25-13
- Effective Communication Skills
- De: Dalton Kehoe, The Great Courses
- Narrado por: Dalton Kehoe
Interesting Course
Revisado: 07-20-17
At first I thought this course was slow to get started. But what Professor Kehoe was doing is setting up the background framework of how communication works in order to drive his concepts home more clearly.
I got some great takeaways from this series. Mainly the use of dialogue talk which means I need to focus on listening to understand rather than listening to reply.
The last few lectures are great and I highly recommend them for anyone in management. I'm going to re-listen to these often to help keep this fresh on my mind as I deal with people daily at the management level.

Good information but tedious
Revisado: 05-30-17
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
It depends. If they are a fan of history than yes, if not then no.
What three words best describe Michael Kramer’s voice?
I love Michael Kramer's voice. I've listened to two books of his and he did great with both.
Could you see The Story of Christianity, Vol. 2, Revised and Updated being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
No, this is a dry history read.
Any additional comments?
The author no doubt did great research and laid out the history from the reformation and on. However I just couldn't get into this like I did with volume 1. I think the format made it difficult to follow and at times the details got repetitive by rehashing the same movement for each region.

Long but Good
Revisado: 02-15-17
Would you consider the audio edition of The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt to be better than the print version?
I enjoyed the audio version of this book. I thought the narrator did a great job of bring Teddy's voice and accent to life. I felt like I was listening to the real Teddy when the narrator imitated his voice.
