Do not waste your time with the Audio Cassette. I have listened to probably 100 books on tape. Contrary to what the above description says, Charles Frazier's slow paced, drawled, sing song, no inflection reading of his "masterpiece" only made a long, rather dull book almost unbearable. Don't be suckered into buying these tapes. If you must, get the book and read it. Although, I wouldn't even recommend that. I found the book to be a chore and very uninvolving.
