12 - Betsy Pittman

Nancy Drew, the Boxcar Children, Laura Ingalls Wilder and romance novels - this episode with guest Betsy Pittman has it all. With a lifelong interest in history, Betsy offers really fascinating reflections on the appeal of romance novels, the lure of rereading some of her favorites, and why the genre - one of the most popular on the market - gets such a bad rap. This episode was recorded as part of a visit to the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center. To share your story on chapters, visit our website: www.chapterspod.com ]]>
