My favorite book.

Would you consider the audio edition of South from Corregidor to be better than the print version?

Yes. Wray's voice is a perfect match for John Morrill. The print version is an excellent read that will really make you think and imagine what these brave men accomplished. It's a hard book to put down.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My Great Uncle, Philip Binkley. He played a major role in helping what was accomplished in this book. Our family lost him shortly after the crew arrived safely in Australia to the war. This book is pretty much all we have to remember him by.
All of these brave men bring a piece of character and personality you want to learn about.
This was a true team that worked together and accomplished the impossible. They had no doubts they would be successful.

What does John Wray bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I was lucky enough to have a vote with Tim Deal and his family on whom we would pick to do this audio book. It was a unanimous decision that John Wray was the perfect fit. I think we all agree he has the voice of naval veteran that sounds like a leader who is sharing a story with you.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely.

Any additional comments?

I want to say thank you to Tim Deal for his ongoing efforts to promote this book. Thanks to him I've gained a great friendship and got the opportunity to meet him and Lyle Bercier in DC a couple of years ago. Lyle shared many great memories of Philip. That was a special day I will never forget. Our family is truly grateful to have this book. This story will never be forgotten.
