Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Tom Parker's narration is a home run, capturing the Babe's swagger and charm. He's like your favorite uncle, spinning yarns about Ruth's legendary feats with relish. The pacing is spot-on, building tension as Ruth steps up to the plate, then erupting in jubilant cheers when he sends another one into the stands. The only critiques? Parker's attempt at a New York accent can be hit-or-miss, and some of Ruth's more sensitive moments could use a touch more nuance. But overall, this is a grand slam of an audiobook experience.
