Among Cannibals


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(2.8 stars; 5 reviews)

From 1880-1883, the author undertook an academic expedition to Australia, with the purpose of recording zoological phenomena. While there, he developed an interest in the indigenous people and, unlike contemporary studies, did not restrict himself to appearance and outward behavior, but rather looked at the social, economic and anthropological. - Summary by Lynne Thompson (0 hr 56 min)

Reviews

My Good Sir?


(4 stars)

Look closely and you'll see this is read by "LibriVox Volunteers." I'll put this simply, that means there's more than one reader. Apologies if one is monotone, just listen on and you'll get a new reader soon enough!


(1 stars)

Another potentially great LibriVox recording totally ruined and made unlistenable by this unbearably dull, lifeless, monotonous reader.
