- Summary:
- Dialogue is an award-winning weekly radio program that explores the world of ideas through weekly, half-hour conversations with renowned public figures, scholars, journalists, and authors.
The revolutionary war was a cruel irony for slaves. The goal of national independence and liberty excluded them; even though many served as American soldiers. To gain their freedom many others opted to serve the British Crown. Historian Schama describes the fate of these Black Loyalists in his new book.
Francine Levinson and Ilene Leventhal challenged 58 of the nation's most accomplished women to describe their favorite fantasy existence. The very revealing answers ranged from very dramatic reinventions to hopeful expressions of the goals they pursue in public life. With photographs that evoke their dream lives book Extraordinary Women captures a special dimension of a remarkably interesting collection of famous women. - Table of Contents:
