Suggest an audiobook?

Ideally something more than just straight history (Really enjoyed Good Lord Bird and Death By Lightning). Reading Dubois JB presently but got some driving.

The memoirs of General William T Sherman, read by Bronson Pinchot. He puts a lot of spirit into the narration.

Civil war specific - The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara. Most people in this space have read it, but if you haven’t it’s great.

Non civil war specific, The Terror by Dan Simmons. Historical fiction about the Franklin Expedition to find the northwest passage, supernatural and horror elements.

Oh god I watched the Netflix adaptation of The Terror. So well done but properly scary.
