WASHINGTON, D.C.  — Wednesday, May 8, 3 pm ET on The Halli Casser-Jayne Show, Talk Radio for Fine Minds unknown stories of World War II is the subject of our discussion.

Joining The Halli Casser-Jayne Show is best-selling author Robert Edsel, whose new book is SAVING  ITALY: The Race to Rescue a Nation's Treasures from the Nazis; acclaimed historian and author of September Hope, John C. McManus; and author Denise Kiernan whose new book is The Girls of Atomic City, The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II.

In SAVING ITALY: The Race to Rescue a Nation’s Treasures from the Nazis, Robert Edsel tells an astonishing account of a little-known American effort to save Italy's vast store of priceless monuments and art during World War II. While American warriors were fighting the length of the country, other Americans were courageously working alongside to preserve the irreplaceable best of Italy's culture. Edsel’s earlier work, The Monuments Men, explored the subject. A film based on the book opens in December 2014, co-written, directed and starring George Clooney, Matt Damon and Catt Blanchette.

Historian John C. McManus tells a riveting and deeply moving story of uncommon courage in September Hope, The American Side of a Bridge Too Far in his account of World War II’s most ambitious invasion, Operation Market Garden, an immense, daring offensive to defeat Nazi Germany before the end of 1944.

In The Girls of Atomic City, The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II, Denise Kiernan rescues a remarkable, forgotten chapter of American history from obscurity when she tells the story of the Manhattan Project, a research and development project that produced the first atomic bombs during World War II and the never-before-told story of the crucial role women played in one of the significant moments in U.S. history.
