A Blaze of Glory: A Novel of the Battle of Shiloh
by Jeff Shaara, Audiobook, 2012, Narrated by Paul Michael, Random House Audio
We listened to this audiobook on our semi-annual trip from Florida to Rhode Island. The audiobook was 18 CD’s so it consumed about 2 1/2 days of our three-day trip. Even though it was long and, at times, seemed even longer than it was, the author made it interesting. By writing this in novel format he made the individuals seem to come to life. At the same time, however, the historical contents were well-researched and accurate. The narration was also very good.
We had no prior knowledge of the battle or the circumstances that brought the two armies together and this was a much more enjoyable means to gain that knowledge compared to a dry, blow-by-blow history of the battle. I would recommend this book.
