Book Description:
This Audiofy audiobook chip packs Kate Fleming's full five hour reading of 'Letters of a Woman Homesteader' on a tiny memory card. A single Audiofy audiobook chip, hardly larger than a stamp, holds a complete digital audiobook, and saves the last listening position automatically, unlike CDs. With an SD memory card slot or low cost adapter like those for digital cameras this Audiofy audiobook chip 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) or transferred to Apple iPod media players. 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)... Elinore Pruitt washed clothes in Denver to provide for herself and her daughter after the death of her husband. In 1909 she took a job with a rancher near Burnt Fork, Wyoming. This was the beginning of the eloquent letters narrated in this remarkable audiobook. The letters are packed with delightful stories and fascinating personal observations providing an astounding account of the life of homesteaders shortly after the turn of the century. REVIEWS: EARPHONE AWARD AudioFile Magazine. 'Publisher InAudio seems to go from strength to strength in the America's Past series. Narrator Kate Fleming perfectly projects Stewart's humor, warmth, and wisdom. Commendably, Fleming quotes each character in the exact manner in which he or she would have addressed Stewart. This title offers pure pleasure.' AudioFile. 'Fleming's narration is emotionally charged and believable. Inspiring, educational, and highly recommended for all ages.' KLIATT, March 2004.
