Count the works of David McCullough among the richest listening experiences. The acclaimed historian has read many of his own audiobooks, but this history of the settlement of America’s Northwest Territory is presented by narrator John Bedford Lloyd. Lloyd possesses many of McCullough’s familiar virtues, in particular, a deep-throated calm and a balanced tone, making this an Earphones-worthy listen. Published by Simon & Schuster Audio.
