A great audiobook!

From the Native Americans that were originally here before Christopher Columbus claim North America for Spain, until today with all the different communities that live in California. This book covers them all and more. From Mexico spite for California to America‘s victory. Do you stories it all with captivating tales and I found this book about California also interesting. I am really starting to love the state history books. I have read Wisconsin and now California and can’t wait for the next one. Captivating history also has a bonus in this book to sign up for the newsletter and receive a book about mitts. Of course I already have that book but side up anyway. I highly recommend this book if you love history and want to know more about California this is the book. Please forgive any grammatical or punctuation errors as I am blind and dictate most of my review. All opinions on my own though.

Two books in one

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook which recounted various facts about California from it’s beginnings through tho modern day. It is narrated in a way that holds your attention from start to finish. I would definitely recommend this audiobook.

Not worth a credit

Purchased for research prior to my trip to California. It was way too short to be worth a full credit and the narration sounded like Ai. I could have found free information to this level, it literally skipped through entire periods of history and I didn’t feel like I learned much. Gutted I wasted a credit.
