Julie, this is a new movie suggestion, not a comment on this new book you're discussing! Mea culpa! The Duke is the name of the movie--British working-class autodidact's famous art heist and the ensuing trial that made the papers in a big way in 1961. Much teaching, delicious humor, touching, and great acting (Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren were the actors who got my attention in the ad and made me want to see it even before I knew what it was about; Matthew Goode is also delightful.)
Julie, I loved the combination book review and interview - with no spoilers. You and the authors present the story of union organizing as I knew it. Can't wait to hear them tomorrow night.
