About this audiobook
A slip and fall changed the course of 20th century history and broadcasting.
One man's dislike of cats contributed to the deaths of millions of people.
A World War II pilot survives 3 plane crashes before switching gears and changing the world of science fiction forever.
A bullet fired in the Civil War nearly wiped yours truly from existence.
Told in the spirit of Paul Harvey's The Rest of the Story, this series of short and fantastic historical stories will intrigue and delight readers who enjoy a fresh take on history. All of these stories come with a fun twist at the end, and some readers will enjoy guessing who or what each story is about as they follow along with each new tale. This is a short, but engaging listen about an hour long.
