New York Times bestselling author and historian Craig Shirley drew from his new book, April 1945: The Hinge of History, to speak about the watershed events in the month of April 1945 -- the sudden death of President Roosevelt, Harry Truman's rise to office, Adolph Hitler's suicide, and the horrific discoveries of Dachau and Auschwitz – that collided and changed the face of the world forever. (This program is held in conjunction with The Dolphin Bookshop, an independent bookstore in Port Washington since 1946.)
