Inaccuracies and Misprounciations Abound
Very easy research could have made this book accurate. Very simple research could have helped the narrator with correct pronunciations. There are too many errors about history where I'm well studied, for me to trust the information on areas with which I'm less familiar. So sad to have spent the money and time on this book.

Ignoramus narrator
Mr Patton has absolutely no comprehension of pronunciation. Hearing “Levant” as “leavent” over and over again, along with other garbling of Greek and Hebrew names is too much.

worst narrator
This guy couldn't mispronounce more words if he tried. I'm not talking crazy weird biblical names, I'm talking normal 10th grade vocab. It's super annoying!!!

Awful!
The “history” is confusing, if not outright ideological; the reader has no change of tone while reading, it becomes quite boring. I want to return the book (I reached some 30 listening minutes).

good information terrible pronounciation
it almost seems purposeful given the insanely high number of misspronountiations words. if you can get past that, it's a good summary of the history of ancient Israel and Judah

Only referred to in a negative light.
Book was easy listening. I like history and it was direct and to the point. It contained information I had heard of before and I am following him already, indeed a verified person. I was very interested in hearing a different point of view of this history because in the Old Testament it seems they were only referred to in a negative light.

A history I was't aware.
Everyone's heard of the Ancient Israel Canaanites thanks to the Captivating History author team, but I'm sure only a few know much if anything about them. This helped fill in all the blanks I had.

It is a very good book.
This is a very informative about history of Israel, brief history which is helpful in the study of the Bible. Highly recommend it. Wish it had been a little deeper.
