Village Talk: Lee Thomas on The Gilded Age (Noon).  Another entertaining and informative American history program by a favorite presenter, Lee Thomas.

Using a mixture of visuals and music, Lee will take us through a fascinating era that left the United States very much changed. Beginning just after the Civil War, he’ll explain how America transitioned from post war devastation to opulence, corruption and ultimately the reforms of the early 20th century. Great background for fans of the HBO series by the same name.
