Review: The ten stories on these tapes are beautifully read by various actors. They range from grimly realistic battle scenes to a science-fiction type fantasy to a couple of stories from a woman's point of view. One of the latter is "The Brothers" by Louisa May Alcott, which I really enjoyed although it is a bit melodramatic. The storyteller here is a nurse who meets a wounded slave with an ax to grind against another patient, who turns out to be his white half-brother. I had no idea that the author of Little Women had written anything like this.

If you like historical fiction, you will find enough here to keep you engrossed for about six hours.
