Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it and found it valuable! I agree with you, as well. Leonard did a great job!

This was a great episode about a fascinating piece of history. Leonard was so well-spoken, thoughtful, careful to answer your questions and not speak to something he didn't know... and great questions were asked, as usual!

This is an amazing book, listened to the interview Zero Books did with Aaron Leonard a year or so ago.
