Faery Lands of the South Seas


Gelesen von John W. Michaels

(4.6 stars; 28 reviews)

Returning from the horrors of World War I James Hall and Charles Nordhoff follow a dream to tour the South Pacific. They later co authored “Mutiny on the Bounty”. This is a love story. A travelogue and an adventure rolled into one. This book just went into the public domain, so enjoy an early 20th Century look at paradise. (Summary by Mike Vendetti) (10 hr 26 min)

Great story & Reader


(5 stars)

Wow....a story very well read. Wish I had read/heard it 50 years ago.....maybe I'd be searching on the island for gold or skippering my own boat.....

good voice

Fantastic melodic voice with excellent tone and inflection. Unfortunately, inconsistent mispronunciations make it hard to follow the stories at times.
