Richard Aldous Interview Episode 79

Thecuriousmanspodcast - A podcast by Matt Crawford

Categories:

Matt Crawford speaks with author Richard Aldous about his book, The Dillon Era: Douglas Dillon in the Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson Administrations. How has a man, heir to a vast fortune that he put aside, and who decided to serve his country and 3 Presidential administrations instead, fade into somewhat obscurity? Serving both Republican and Democratic administrations in some of this nation's most fraught times, Dillon was a giant among politicians. Aldous introduces us to this man in vast and engrossing detail that will transport you back to Camelot days.
