Show Notes

Today on Leonard Lopate At Large, Leonard’s guest is Miriam Pawel, author of “The Browns Of California.”

Pawel, the author of ‘The Crusades of Cesar Chavez,’ bills her family saga as a ‘lens through which to tell a unique history of the 31st state,’ but it does much more. Her engaging narrative of the politics, ideas and policies of the two Edmund Browns illuminates the sea change in the nation’s politics in the last half of the 20th century.” – Lisa McGirr, New York Times Book Review
