"Captivating and impressive, this gentleman will give you history in the first person - and he leaves his audience spell bound."
- Thomas T. Wittmann,
The Max Gazette


"You are the best performer of all! I just can't believe how you LIVE the part."
- Beverly Bell, Cruise Escapes


"You could hear a feather drop! My wife said, 'The audience was like putty in his hands.'"
- Philip Magaldi, Director of Administration and Advertising, Gettysburg Convention and Visitors Bureau


"Bill Young... specializes in 'Southern voices'... He is a great guy and puts on a hell of a performance. His John Paul Jones is electrifying, his MacArthur might be just the ticket for the MacArthur Museum in Littlerock, and his Woodrow Wilson is presidential, funny, and brings out WWI in an unusual way."
- James H. Armstead, Professor of Law, Stanford University, Professor of History, Virginia Military Institute.
