I was privileged to listen to a re-broadcast story on...
which had on guest Simon Schama.... 
courtesy of...
who was presenting...
Which introduced me to "Joseph Mallord William Turner"...
Who painted "The Slave Ship"
A painting that evoked a lot of emotion and curiosity about a shameful and brutal time in the history of our nation. Because of this painting I was brought back to Simon Schama and his book "Rough Crossings"...
and finally, after over a year, stumbling on the best book I have read in a LONG time...
