Frontier: the word carries the inevitable scent of the West. But before Custer or Lewis and Clark, before the first Conestoga wagons rumbled across the Plains, it was the East that marked the frontier—the boundary between complex Native cultures and the first colonizing Europeans.
Here is the older, wilder, darker history of a time when the land between the Atlantic and the Appalachians was contested ground—when radically different societies adopted and adapted the ways of the other, while struggling for control of what all considered to be their land.
The First Frontier traces two and a half centuries of history through poignant, mostly unheralded personal stories—like that of a Harvard-educated Indian caught up in seventeenth-century civil warfare, a mixed-blood interpreter trying to straddle his white and Native heritage, and a Puritan woman wielding a scalping knife whose bloody deeds still resonate uneasily today. It is the first book in years to paint a sweeping picture of the Eastern frontier, combining vivid storytelling with the latest research to bring to life modern America’s tumultuous, uncertain beginnings.

A good book, butt you will have to take all in one, as the cue sheet does not work.
I downloaded it twice and tried 3 programs to extract the cue sheet. It does not work. The single piece MP3 seems to work, so far.

Hi Alpine59,
You can use this free & opensource tool to chop mp3s into chapters.
Go to the tab “Batch & automatic split.” I set the split length to 900 seconds (15 minutes).
Then use the free program MP3tag (menu Tools -> Autonumbering wizard) to edit the tags and guarantee the correct order when you play them.

Hi Alpine59,
The link to the splitter was automatically removed. It’s called mp3splt-gtk on Sourceforge. Easy to find :-)
