If you love learning about the civil war, you have to listen to this program. Few remember the incredible story of this famed confederate raider. Alabama played havoc with Union shipping until... well, I can't tell you that, or I will spoil the story. This is another fun tale of history done by the great talents at Colonial Radio.
A little known but important story.

The Story of the Alabama (Confederate sea raider) is a truly Fascinating one. Anyone interested in Civil War History will really love this program. It is well acted and has lots of excitment and loads of sound effects. Put this one on you wish list, it is worth the price of admission.

Audio books really are a wonderful thing, not only do they transport you to other worlds, introduce you to other people’s ideas and culture, they are also a lot more flexible than books. The book drains your time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player, whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to them at any time.

Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want.

Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again.
