Hi again, dear audiobooks friends! In today’s article I want to tell you about a new and very interesting historical novel of romance and suspense written by Duncan Clarke, that is now available also in audiobook format. The audio production is a little over 9 hours in length, the narrator is Charlie Boswell, and the publisher is Brandylane Publishers, Inc. 

A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing: Troubles at Traymore College by Duncan Clarke is a tale set in 1969 Southwest Virginia about a newly hired professor who, at great risk to himself, challenges the paternalistic and unconstitutional policies of a rural state women’s college.


You can find out more about this story from the Publisher’s Summary below:

When David Pritchard is hired to teach political science at a remote women’s college in 1969, he anticipates a quiet year before moving on to bigger things. However, it soon becomes apparent that all is not well at Traymore College. President Barton and his administration curtail basic academic freedoms, harass tenured professors, and impose tight constraints on students’ personal lives.

Appalled, David engages in intimate alliances with sympathetic faculty and several members of student leadership to stand up to the school’s administration. Together, they aim to ignite the press and spark far-reaching legal action. But Barton will not go down without a fight.

Duncan L. Clarke is Professor Emeritus of International Relations and former Director of the United States Foreign Policy Field at American University’s School of International Service, Washington, D.C. He was Visiting Professor of Politics at the University of California Santa Cruz and Professor of National Security at the National War College of the National Defense University. He has served in the intelligence community and authored numerous articles and five books on U.S. defense and foreign policy.

Professor Clarke lived and taught in Washington, D.C. for many years before moving to California’s Monterey Peninsula. He earned his BA at Clark University, JD at Cornell University, and PhD at the University of Virginia. Mr. Clarke has begun writing a second novel concerning a serial murderer on the Appalachian Trail. He is an avid hiker who has twice hiked the entire Appalachian Trail. You can find out even more about Mr. Clarke on his website.

Narrator Charlie Boswell is a native of Roanoke, Virginia and his experience spans more than 35 years as a radio announcer. He has performed more than 125 productions, and a very interesting fact is that both Mr. Boswell’s wife and sister attended the college where A Little Rebellion Is a Good Thing: Troubles at Traymore College is set.

 

I’ll start listening to the book this week and will post a review towards the end of the month. But until then, I suggest that you drop an eye on this feature article about it on The Roanoke Times website

 
See you all soon take care, stay safe, and don’t forget, always listen with your heart!
