The March Boattalk program was done when the station’s transmitter was out and was only partially recorded. It has a full (short version) interview with Maine author, sailor & historian James L. Nelson who will be featured for the whole hour on April’s Boattalk 4/14/09, about his books, particularly on the American Revolution & why boatbuilders & sailors were absolutely indispensable.
