Sinopse

Speaker: James Witherell; Recorded September 16, 2014 - The arc of Edmund "Ed" Muskie's life from modest beginnings 100 hundred years ago to future greatness was singular and unpredictable-an American story that looks plausible only in hindsight. Author James L. Witherell's biography of Muskie traces the son of an immigrant tailor through his two terms as Maine's governor. Witherell is also the author of Bicycle History (2010), L.L. Bean: The Man and His Company (2011), and When Heroes Were Giants: 100 Tours de France (2013).
