History as You Heard It1957

"*History As You Heard It* is a daily chronicle of the years between 1930 and 1955, a collection of excerpts from the news broadcasts of Lowell Thomas. This is history in its most vivid form: an immediate, on-the-spot, day-by-day report on events and the people and forces who create and shape them. This is the diary of a country. It includes details of historic events as they unfold and reaction to them as well as common and trivial "news."
