Gerry's Opening Monologue -
"This is Gerry Prokopowicz, with Civil War Talk Radio,...
| ...Tonight we're going to learn about Appleton Oaksmith. Who was Appleton Oaksmith? He's sort of the Forrest Gump of the illegal slave trade in the 19th century. Except that maybe he wasn't a slave trader at all. His mother, who no one listening to the show has ever heard of, was once the most well known woman writer in America. There's no way to introduce it except to hear the story itself that's told in the book called 'Shipwrecked: A True Civil War Story of Mutinies, Jailbreaks, Blockade-Running, and the Slave Trade.' It's written by Jonathan W White. We'll talk with him tonight on Civil War Talk Radio." |
