Widely acclaimed as a master of narrative nonfiction, Erik Larson is the author of four New York Times best-sellers, including In the Garden of Beasts and The Devil in the White City. His “utterly compelling” (Washington Post), addictively readable books read like thrillers set against grand historical tableaux, where readers get to know the players intimately. The meticulous researcher will discuss the process of bringing history alive and the odd and funny things that happen while conducting research in far-flung locales.
