Presidential debating styles, a Vietnam War diary and the Earth's security blanket
Boston CallingAvailable for over a year
We compare and contrast presidential debating styles in America and France. Also, an Afghanistan war veteran takes aim at both US political parties. Plus, the story of a diary from the Vietnam War that found its way home almost 50 years later. And the sound of the Earth's security blanket.
