Dominic, in your series, you quoted the New Yorker's very own Adam Gopnik.
who asked the question if the American Revolution was in fact a mistake.
Right.
Yeah.
And you get into that.
I'd love to hear you on that subject.
I'm speaking with Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook, hosts of the podcast The Rest is History.
We'll continue in just a moment.
This is the New Yorker Radio Hour.
This is the New Yorker Radio Hour.
I'm David Remnick.
I'm speaking today with Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook, who together host The Rest is History, one of my favorite podcasts and one of the most popular things in the world, at least in English.
Sandbrook was on the history faculty at Oxford University, and he's written a number of books on modern British and American history.
Holland wrote about the classical world, and he's translated works from the Latin and ancient Greek.
But on The Rest is History, they cover just about anything.
A Roman emperor one week, the Rolling Stones the next, a series on Hitler, and then the samurai period in Japan.
That's the way it goes on their podcast.
But the relevant thing for our conversation today, our subject is a four-part series that they produced on the American Revolution.
So I'll continue my conversation now with Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook.
Well, let's take on a very big subject in this, and that's the element of slavery.
