Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Dana Green’s narration brings Miller's narrative to life with a balance of warmth and gravitas that perfectly complements the text. The story unfolds with a captivating mix of personal anecdotes and historical insights, creating a vivid portrait of Betsy Ross as both a skilled seamstress and a resilient woman navigating pivotal moments in American history. However, some listeners might find the pacing slightly uneven at times, particularly during long passages about textile production processes. Overall, this audiobook is an essential listen for those interested in the lesser-known facets of America's founding mothers.
