    Rudolph Diesel is what I call "anonymously famous". Everyone knows his name, but almost nobody knows about the man.

    As a shade tree mechanic this is fascinating. Subs, tractors, semi trucks , buses none of these would have been as efficient. Pinkertons were horrible mercenaries. We still have anti-Pinkerton laws on the books. Too bad they aren’t enforced.

    Klavan, you're so underrated it's criminal.
  • @Jan6thsurvivor
    The fact Klavan didn’t know something doesn’t seem real. In fact, learning Andrew didn’t know something is more traumatic to me than Jan 6th, officially.

    I had no idea about this and I'm genuinely intrigued by it
  • @user-ti5rb1mx5x
    Just bought the book while listening to this. Sounds fascinating

    Brunt is tremendously appealing. I hope this becomes more dominant and returns to our society.

    Regarding Kindle, as we get older one of the major advantages of Kindle is that you can resize the print and change the typeface of most, but unfortunately not all books, and with the Kindle Paperwhite, a backlight is included and you can even change it to make it warmer colored and therefore easier on the eyes at night. The 🤬 Durham report does not resize. It remains infinitesimally small print, and of a thin lined font that is harder to read than 10 CFR. It's as if they don't want people to read it.

    I like reading books. When something I read inspires an idea, I like to pause and take the mental trip and then return to where I was with the story. This happens with audio books, but by the time I am done with my thought, I have to back up the audio book and find my place.
  • Watched on DW. Great interview. Love history. Look forward to reading this.

    Ahh, takes me back to thermodynamics lectures at University.
  • @carolcollins6243
    I’m glad to hear that Klavan doesn’t understand a lot about WW I. I’ve tried and I can’t figure it all out either. It’s probably always going to be a mystery to me.

    He helped me win a trivia contest. Thank you for bringing him to light.
  • @tommarble3922
    Can't wait to read this. Big fan of Noel B. Gerson's many historical novels. Have yet to find a non-fiction novelist who can capture me the same. Thank you Andrew for sharing this interview.
  • @BLAISEDAHL96
    I would watch a DW+ history docuseries by Andrew Klavan.
  • When people rave about a new show that the source material comes from already published novels...I read the book and ignore the show because I know "they" will screw it up
