Audio for the "Historias de..." parallel text series?

[Tomás]

I have all four of the "Historias de..." parallel text books. I have found the English audio on the publisher's web site, but have never found any Spanish audio. Does it exist?

FWIW, I have read three of the books so far. The Mexico volume was the easiest, followed by Spain. Puerto Rico is more difficult, and has a poor English translation. I'm reading the Latin America one right now.

Are you sure it's the English audio you have? I had a listen to a couple of tracks I downloaded, and they started out with a (rather lengthy) English introduction before moving on to the Spanish text.

Could you please provide the link to the audio? My searches of the McGraw-Hill website yielded zero results. Merci à l'avance!

I highly recommend these books for beginner-low intermediate. It's neither great literature nor even good non-fiction, but they're not as boring as children's books. It's it's reasonably engaging and you learn something about the cultural and historical folklore. The Spanish audio makes it even more valuable for early efforts with LR.

Leave the PR volume for last, due to the poor translation.

¡Muchas gracias!

I liked the Puerto Rico one. I thought the stories were pretty well done. I only read the Spanish side so I cannot comment on the English. The Spanish was quite easy to read. These are great for a transition from a course like Assimil into real books.
