John Sedgwick Interview Episode 45

<p>In this episode Matt Crawford speaks with author John Sedgwick about his book From The River To The Sea. John takes us back in time and shares a story of two men whose destinies seemed to be cosmically entwined. General William J, Palmer and William Barstow Strong would fight for over a decade in their race to build their railroads and make it to the Pacific. Intrigue abounds, spies are used, coded messages and high dollar lawyers to find whatever loopholes could give one an edge over the other. This is a rip-roaring ride through history, you better hold on.</p>
