  • Poe joins the military
  • Poor and disowned
  • Writing career and famous works
  • Poe’s mysterious death
  • And much more!

Interesting but not much depth

A good intro into the life of EA Poe, lacks a little depth but an easy listen for those looking for a broad understanding.

Succinct

Basic and to the point. Not quite everything you want to know but I think that's the point, definitely enough to get on with.
