Around the World with Nellie Bly
Join us as we talk to author and journalist, Rosemary Brown, about the amazing life and travels of Nelly Bly. Bly would find fame after taking on Jules Verne's fictional character Phileas Fogg who travelled the world in eighty days. Nellie Bly would show that not only was that possible but she would also beat Fogg by eight days.
Nellie Bly also features in our latest issue dedicated to the history of exploration. The issue is available from our online store.
Rosemary's book, Following Nellie Bly is now available from our online book shop. You can get her brilliant new book here.
Leni Rifenstahl: The Dictator's Muse with Nigel Farndale
We talk to author and journalist Nigel Farndale, about his new novel "The Dictator's Muse". The novel centres around the controversial film-maker who made her mark directing the movies "Triumph of the Will" and "Olympia". Leni Riefenstahl may have been a pioneer in terms of film direction and rising the ranks of the movie industry as a female film maker, yet her association with Hitler and the Nazi Party was always something she tried to distance herself from in the later years of her life. In many respects, she signed a Faustian pact with the Nazi party who funded and allowed her to flourish as a gifted film-maker but her talent would never make it to Hollywood.
Join Inside History and Nigel Farndale as we talk about the life, films and politics of Leni Riefenstahl.
Nigel Farndale's book The Dictator's Muse is available from our bookshop and released on the 24th June
