À propos de cet audio

 The National Book Award–winning epic chronicle of the creation of the Panama Canal, a first-rate drama of the bold and brilliant engineering feat that transformed global trade routes and shaped modern American history, as told by Pulitzer Prize–winning author and master historian David McCullough.

A national bestseller and testament to human determination, The Path Between the Seas tells the stories of the men and women who fought against all odds to fulfill the 400-year-old dream of constructing a maritime passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. McCullough masterfully recounts astonishing engineering and medical accomplishments, political power plays, heroic successes, and tragic failures. Applying his remarkable gift for writing lucid, lively exposition, McCullough weaves the many strands of the momentous event into a comprehensive and captivating tale.

Winner of the National Book Award for history, the Francis Parkman Prize, the Samuel Eliot Morison Award, and the Cornelius Ryan Award (for the best book of the year on international affairs), The Path Between the Seas is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, technological innovation, international intrigue, and human drama.

Absolutely love the detail. Almost wish there was a part 2 that covered post construction (until today) with the same thoroughness.

Loved it

A marvelous description of the creation of a great engineering achievement. A bit dry and detailed when it came to the technical narration of the structural side of the canal, but then this was part of the mission of the entire story. But the technical overkill was compensated by the other details of how and why the French had started it and failed, and true to the American spirits, how the Americans came to complete it.

GOOD HISTORY

This book is wonderfully written and narrated. It's a terrific description of the history, politics, personalities and construction of the canal.

Outstanding

Can't say enough good things about this audiobook. Interesting true story that has all the elements of great fiction, plus excellent narration, production, etc., plus it's well-written, edited and organized . . . everything you want in a book!

Well, almost everything. I wish it had come with a PDF, (it didn't, in Canada) but the audiobook was so fascinating and I enjoyed it so much I decided to buy the Kindle version (I wanted to see how some names and places were spelled.)

Brilliant. Best audiobook purchase so far.

Great narration and wow, what a story! The great American historian McCullough is at the top of his craft in this remarkable story of doing the almost impossible, and doing it well.

As always, EXCELLENT!
