Advocating Overlord Talk To be Broadcasted July 7 and July 8
July 7, 2018 @ 4:55 pm - 5:40 pm
FREESaturday, July 7 at 4:55 PM EDT, C-SPAN2 Book TV will broadcast their video-recording of my June 16 talk during the “Roosevelt Reading Festival” at the FDR Library and Museum. You may watch on television or go to BookTV’s website at: https://www.c-span.org/series/?bookTv Being where key events in the book happened, I focused on the period of July-August 1943 and highlighted events and discussions between Roosevelt and Churchill that took place at the Roosevelt Estate and Eleanor Roosevelt’s idyllic cottage, Val-Kill. Their meetings, August 13-15 1943, were a key milestone on the way to agreement a week later in Quebec on Allied strategy and cooperation on the atomic bomb. The talk will be broadcasted again by C-SPAN2 on Sunday, July 8 at 3:55 AM EDT. Yes, that will be “oh-dark-thirty” on the U.S. East Coast, but not a bad time at all for friends in Europe and the Pacific. After being broadcasted, the recording of the talk will go into Book TV’s library. That can be accessed at:https://www.c-span.org/about/videoLibrary/
