THE LAST 100 DAYS The Tumultuous and Controversial Story of the Final Days of World War II in Europe

The late author wrote many books about WWII, but this one, first published in 2003, broke new ground because of its use of previously unreleased documents and personal interviews. The audiobook is now available, and the material is just as enlightening as it was on paper. Narrator Ralph Cosham brings an authoritative British accent to the work, and he’s suitably respectful of the awesome story he’s telling. His variations in pitch and his delivery of especially painful passages are effective and engrossing. He also has excellent diction and keeps to a lively pace. Over the course of this long book, however, his steady narration lacks a bit of variety. R.I.G. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2014]
