It was interesting listening to a perspective on Arizona from the 1800's. The author covered a range of topics, some of which may be foreign or not pc to the modern reader, and others a bit dull. I listened to most of it while half asleep, so I'm sure I missed some things. But it was very effective at putting me back in the land of Nod. I suspect that there were some audio issues in the last two chapters, but these didn't seem to bother me too much. Many thanks to the narrator for his efforts.

This reader did not bother to familiarize themself with correct pronunciation of words with Mexican roots. It got very tiresome listening to incorrect pronunciations.
