Dinner & A Book - Beyond That, the Sea

As German bombs fall over London in 1940, working-class parents Millie and Reginald Thompson make an impossible choice: to send their 11-year-old daughter, Beatrix to America for the duration of the war, where they hope she'll stay safe. “Beyond That, the Sea” by Laura Spence-Ash is the story of two families living through WWII, one in England and one in New England. Gail Martin welcomes Laura Horst for discussion about being torn between two places while preparing an All-American meal.
