Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Richard Allen’s narration is both powerful and compassionate, which complements Tobin's compelling storytelling perfectly. The way he modulates his voice to convey the fear, hope, and despair of the fugitives adds a layer of authenticity that elevates this audiobook. However, at times, the narrative can feel slightly rushed during the technical explanations of escape routes, which might make the dense sections challenging for new listeners. Despite these moments, ‘From Midnight to Dawn’ is a must-listen for anyone interested in American history and the human spirit's resilience.
