The Postal Service: A Slow History to Fall Asleep To

A calm, unhurried history of the Postal Service, read slowly to help you fall asleep. One steady voice, a quiet music bed, and about an hour of gentle history. No drama, no cliffhangers, nothing you need to remember.
Tonight: How a letter travelled before there was a post, relay riders and merchants' couriers, the royal posts and the coaching inns, the penny post and the first stamp and the pillar box, a market-town letter carrier's whole day from the early sorting to the last box clearance, and the slow, quiet decline of the letter.
