Wilson - The Great War AUTHOR Henrietta Elizabeth Marshall (1867 - 1941) was a British author, most famous for her works of history for children. For decades, Marshall's books were ubiquitous in schools and home libraries. Much of the popularity of her works stems from her talent for making history read like good storytelling. COMMENTARY Reviews for Alcazar AudioWorks' production of This Country of Ours, Part 7 We are nearly to the end of our second time through This Country of Ours by H.E. Marshall, and I'll be sorry when we reach the end, for it has been a fascinating journey. The first time we went through the book, I read aloud to our older children. This time we are using Alcazar Audioworks' unabridged reading of the book on CD. The book, just shy of one hundred chapters, is divided into eight volumes of CDs so that you only need to purchase the portion that relates to the particulars of your study of U.S. history. That's a help to the budget! Part Seven A: Stories of the United States under the Constitution opens just after the ending of the American Revolution, describing how George Washington, having stepped down from commanding the young nation's army, was called out of retirement to be its first president. The stories continue through the administrations of the next fourteen presidents, through the beginning of Lincoln's first term, and the war between the Northern and Southern states, culminating in the battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac.
