MIRACLE AT PHILADELPHIA

Catherine Drinker Bowen records the events of the stormy sessions of 1787, which produced the Constitution of the United States. The clear narration by Kristen Underwood gives the impression that Bowen herself is addressing the listener, after having mingled with the delegates, heard their arguments and witnessed this dramatic moment in history. The wealth of detail is prevented from becoming tiresome by this pleasant, expressive reading of a brilliant work. E.P.M. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT 95]
