Book Description:
Over his lifetime, Shakespearean trained actor Alexander Scourby supplied his resonant, mellifluous voice to more than 500 audiobook recordings, but his narration of the King James Bible was ultimately so well received he earned the nickname 'The Voice of the Bible.' Scourby's clear and precise pronunciation is impeccable and easily understood. This Audiofy audiobook chip edition shrinks the large binders of CDs and cassettes normally required for this unabridged rendition into one tiny digital memory card each for the Old and New Testaments. Born in Brooklyn in 1913 to Greek immigrant parents, Scourby also earned recognition as a radio personality, movie actor and narrator of television documentaries. Yet his masterful recording of scripture has become his most sought after performance, remaining so more than two decades after his death. This Audiofy audiobook chip edition can be played on Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh desktop computers or laptops (Microsoft Windows XP/2000/Me/98, or Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 and above) using an SD memory card slot or adapter, like those for digital cameras. Audiobook chips also move seamlessly to most Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld PDAs with SD expansion slots, as well as Treo and Windows Mobile 'smartphones' (Palm OS 5.2 or Windows Mobile 2002 and above). Audiofy audiobook chips offer 'no look' navigation, announcing your listening position with two button clicks and letting you jump to other lessons in seconds. It's also ideal for anyone hindered by the small displays on some devices. They play without moving parts, and are ideal for traveling, commuting or exercising. Scourby's narration of the Bible has found its way into the hearts of listeners the world over, and Audiofy audiobook chips are an excellent way to keep this recording close at hand every day.
