The Adventures of Old Ironsides Audiobook (Free)

USS CONSTITUTION is the world’s oldest commissioned warship afloat, having been launched in 1797. In The Adventures of Old Ironsides, we dramatize two of her most fascinating adventures. In The Barbary Pirates – the entire year is 1805, and Constitution fights Tripolitan Pirates to free of charge the crew from the captured USS Philadelphia. An “edge of your seat” adventure, it really is based totally on fact with nothing tossed set for dramatic effect – it didn’t need it! In Get away To The Breeze, Constitution finds herself in the Battle of 1812, and finds herself becoming chased by a squadron of five United kingdom Warships. The wind dies down, as well as the ships are lifeless in the water, Captain Hull discovers a way to range himself from the superior force. An incredible but true story of Yankee ingenuity! By culling through the information from the Captain’s logs, the Colonial Radio Theatre brings alive the adventures of the USS Constitution – Aged Ironsides!
