"Pioneers and Presidents" - BBC Radio Five 1995, BBC Radio Ulster 1996 - presented by Wendy Austin


Back in December 1995 BBC Radio Five Live broadcast a six part series presented by Wendy Austin, entitled Pioneers and Presidents. It was re-broadcast on Radio Ulster in May 1996. I taped them, and then made up very simple covers during my lunch breaks. I found them again recently. Radio is a great medium and, given the amount of fresh scholarship there has been during the internet age, it would be brilliant for these to be re-done, bigger and better, for the present generation.
