Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Flo Gibson’s narration is nothing short of captivating. She imbues each word with the right amount of excitement and wonder as she recounts Isabella Bird's daring travels through the Rocky Mountains. The pacing is perfect, allowing ample time to soak in Bird's lyrical observations without feeling overwhelmed. However, there are moments where the story feels a bit too repetitive, particularly when describing the same landscape for multiple days. Despite this minor critique, 'A Lady’s Life in the Rocky Mountains' remains a must-listen for anyone fascinated by 19th-century American history or spirited travelogues.
