I spend a great deal of time in my car everyday and rarely find anything on the radio worth listening to. So I listen to a great many podcasts and audio books. Being as cheap as I am these days, I only listen to free audio books. I'm currently listening to "Uncle Tom’s Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe, as read by John Greenman and published at LibriVox.org.

The one cautionary note I need to state in regards to free audio books is that the quality of the audio and the performance of the reader varies widely. But Mr. John Greenman is exceptional! I'll listen to anything he reads. He is very capable of seperating the characters with his voice and it is truely a fine performance!

I thought some of you might be like me and find reading "Uncle Tom’s Cabin" is difficult to wade through. But listening to it is a pleasure. And with the influence it had for the era many of us hold a passion for, you might find the experience educational.
