Book Review: Traveling Through History by Janet Morrison
Click/tap to purchase from Bookshop.org Click/tap to purchase from Amazon My Review I found Janet Morrison’s Traveling through History: A Collection of Historical Short Stories to be an intriguing hybrid work comprising history, historical legends, ancestral history, personal essay, short fiction, and creative nonfiction. Given its hybrid nature, the collection is quite varied, with some stories tragic, some comic, all enjoyable to read.

Claire and Hazel are voiced by two professional voice actors, Maria McCann for Claire, Moe Egan for Hazel. The audition and "calibrating" stages were interesting.
