Reviews
Furbetto
Elisa
Ho atteso parecchio a conoscere questa testimonianza e ora capisco perchè. Come al tempo stesso non ci ho speso denaro e ho invece colto l'opportunità Librivox. Piuttosto arrogante e furbetto, il Beesley, cita la stampa quando e come fa comodo a lui, e dall'altra parte, all'occorrenza la tratta come invenzione infernale da controllare con la legge. Propaganda, anche militarista, come spesso in quest'epoca, definendo molto spesso questa tragedia "avventura". Difficile tener presente che lui fosse su questa nave e abbia avuto poi la fortuna immensa di sopravvivere per raccontarlo.
Interesting story

I enjoyed hearing facts and reason concerning the Titanic. His suggestions for improvements seem optimistic and simple. The reader is good. I did speed it up because the story is a bit boring.

Great story. Some parts need to be recorded over again. There are blank spots and background conversations going on. Readers voice is great for the story. Thank you.
