About this listen

From the Trojan Horse to Robert E. Lee's lost battle plans, world history has been as shaped by chance and error as by courage and conviction.

An interesting premise, poor delivery

I really enjoy this type of explanation of historical events and this book covers a wide range of battle situations throughout history. There are a number of European vignettes from the last few hundred years and the narrators ability to pronounce and speak German, French, Italian (or even Vietamese!) is really quite poor and I found it difficult to get past this issue.
