On 21 June I talked with New York University history professor Greg Grandin about his book Fordlandia: The Rise and Fall of Henry Ford's Forgotten Jungle City, which has just come out in paperback from Picador; with James Mauro about his recent book Twilight at the World of Tomorrow: Genius, Madness, Murder, and the 1939 World's Fair on the Brink of War (Balantine) and with Nevada County cartoonist R L Crabb about his forthcoming book Once Upon a Village.
You could call this the Foolish Things People Did Before Bob Crabb Could Set Them Straight Program.
