About this listen
Eight hilarious satirical essays depicting people who believe they lean forward, believe they know, say they know, give advice with what they know, and try to keep others from accomplishing risky historical challenges. Included are the Antarctic Expedition, Constructing the Panama Canal, The Battle of Trenton, in addition to five more farcical stories exposing the naysayers, all written in the light comical style of Evelyn Waugh, and sure to amuse the listener.
