War of the Worlds - Book One / Chapter 12 - What I saw of the Destruction of Weybridge and Shepperton

I've decided to throw caution to the wind and reach my wife. Myself and the artilleryman have packed some snacks to sustain us. Time to venture forward! Good lord! Are we the only ones left alive?? Hopefully there is a smashing good fight scene as our brave British military gets their shot at these Martian brutes! And how does the sound man get so close? It's like a death beam right in your own living room for those listening at home.  Also, we discuss Orson Welles and his presentation of War of the Worlds.
