( ) Some parts of the book were good, especially where connections were made between social movements & conditions in England with conditions in the Americas, and how slavery developed. As an audiobook, some sections had notes that interrupted the flow of the main story and made the entire book less interesting. Usually I appreciate references, when I am reading the book myself, but it does not work as well for audio versions. The narrator was difficult to listen to, hesitating & mispronouncing foreign or longer words, and with a nasal tonal quality. I stopped halfway through, but would consider reading it in a print version where I am able to skim sections. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
"The Island that Disappeared tells, for the first time, the story of the passengers aboard the Mayflower's sister ship (the Seaflower) who in 1630 founded a rival Puritan colony on an isolated Caribbean island called Providence--so small it doesn't appear on most maps. Chaos ensued, and the great experiment failed. One-hundred years later the disaster repeated itself. Travelling to the island today, Tom Feiling finds a new mix of Puritans and pirates that make Providence a symbol of how the Western world took shape."--Provided by publisher.
