Inaugurations Past

Frank Stasio talks with Philip Hamburger, a writer for the New Yorker magazine and author of Matters of State: A Political Excursion, who has been attending Presidential inaugurations since the 1930's. Hamburger remembers Franklin Delano Roosevelt's riveting first inaugural address with particular fondness. (NOTE: Matters of State is published by Counterpoint.)
