Sam Kean Discusses The Bastard Brigade

Chris Laughery

In The Moment ... July 1, 2019 Show 607 Hour 1

It's a story of scientists racing against time to prevent Nazi Germany from developing an atomic bomb. Author Sam Kean's forthcoming book The Bastard Brigade is a nail-biting adventure packed with the characters and clandestine operations you can only find in real life history.

Sam Kean is the national best-selling author of The Disappearing Spoon, The Violinist's Thumb, and The Tale of the Dueling Neurosurgeons. His work has been featured on NPR's Radiolab, Science Friday, and Fresh Air. Kean is originally from South Dakota. He lectures tonight (Monday) at 6:30 p.m. at the Siouxland Libraries' downtown branch in Sioux Falls.
