THE SECRET WORLD A History of Intelligence

This audiobook exhaustively documents the history of intelligence--spying--from Moses to Napoleon to the present. It's ideal for those who savor the world of international intrigue. From the start, it's clear that narrator Clive Chafer recognizes the challenge of delivering Christopher Andrew's lengthy book, and he is up to the task. With his British accent and low-key style, Chafer adeptly uses a mix of tone and inflection, while pacing his delivery. As a result, listeners can savor the audiobook. Another benefit is that many chapters are stand-alone stories, which provide an easy way for busy listeners to take in the work a little at a time if they wish.
