Welcome to this sampler of vintage audio programs dramatizing events from Virginia history! These programs are a small part of our library at
Homeschool Radio Shows.com, so if you like these and enjoy listening to great stories, you'll LOVE our free weekly "Living Books for the Ears" programs there. Be sure and visit us soon!

Each of the programs we have for you here in this archive are mp3 format audios, and are half hour dramatizations as originally aired during the days of old time radio in years gone by.
If you are unfamiliar with downloading mp3 files, please check out the detailed instructions we have for you just below the links. If you need some helpful tips on using these audio programs in your homeschooling, or while on the road, etc., click here for some very helpful suggestions.  Enjoy the programs!

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS below if you are unfamiliar with downloading a file or are having any problems with your download.

To download a program, RIGHT click (use the right hand button on your mouse) the link above, and "save target as" (or "save link as") to the directory of your choice.

The file should start downloading right away. If it doesn't, try it again, and follow these instructions carefully. (DON'T cut and paste this link into your web browser -- that will just PLAY the program over the internet (it will be jumpy and start & stop a lot), and will not DOWNLOAD the program. If you want to download it to your computer, you need to follow the above instructions.)

NOTE: If the file just starts playing over your computer right away, that's because you clicked the link with the LEFT hand button on your mouse. You need to click the RIGHT HAND button to download the whole show to your computer.

IF you right click the link and your computer does not allow you to "save target", you need to adjust your computer's security settings (or disable your "internet content advisor" settings) to allow downloaded files.

MAC USERS: In order to download these files, hold down the Control key then click the link with your mouse.  It will then download to the directory you choose.

If your download is unusually slow, it could be because our server is busy or overtaxed. You might try again at a later hour. It should - eventually - work fine.
