ROUGH RIDERS

Lt. Colonel "Teddy" Roosevelt looks at the part played in the Spanish-American War by the First Volunteer Cavalry. John Randolf-Jones has an excellent voice for this narration--a deep baritone, gruff yet distinctive. The flow of the work is maintained while each of the characters is given life by a slight change in the pitch of the narrator's voice. The narrator gives the author's journal a life and vitality it lacks as a written work. S.J.L. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPT 94]
