About this listen

Filled with humor, wisdom and loving detail, the powerful story of Peter Marshall's life has touched the hearts and minds of millions of people. It's a story about love - the love between a dynamic man and his God, and the tender love between a man and the woman he married. It is also the gripping adventure of a poor Scottish immigrant who became chaplain of the United States Senate and one of the most revered men in America.

A Man Called Peter became the number-one best-seller when it was published in 1951, and around the world lives were changed by reading of the chaplain's remarkable faith.

In the foreword to this audiobook, Peter's son writes, "Even when [Dad's] words were preached 'secondhand'. . . in the movie version of A Man Called Peter, they had an amazing effect on people." Through Peter's story and the compelling sermons and prayers included in A Man Called Peter, you will discover insight into God, man, and life on earth and hereafter. You will also be encouraged by the realization that "if God can do so much for a man called Peter, he can do as much for you."

Wonderful inspirational story, I had read this book a long time ago, but really enjoyed listening to it this time around. Also it is beautifully read.

lovely read

This was an interesting read but for me rather spoiled by poor narration. Not only were Scottish names wrongly pronounced but I found it generally stilted.

What would have made A Man Called Peter better?

Being narrated by someone who can pronounce the Scottish place-names and words.

Would you be willing to try another one of Renee Ertl’s performances?

Never in a million years.

Any additional comments?

That "Lock LoMOND" mispronunciation described by another reviewer is so awful! Also the reference to "Bell-shill" instead of "Bells-hill". And "Edinbur" instead of Edinburgh. I could go on but I won't. The narrator ruins this book completely. A real tragedy.

Worst Narration EVER!
