Jewell uncovers how battles to control college radio were about more than music—they were an influential, if unexpected, front in the nation's culture wars.

More than an ode to beloved stations, this book will resonate with both music fans and observers of the politics of culture.

Insightful, incisive and enlightening, the first volume of Simon Callow's comprehensive biography of Orson Welles. Now in abridged audio, Callow's vastly entertaining chronicle of Welles's first 26 years seems even finer than it did in 1995.

Welles's innovative theatrical work in the 1930s has never been better described or analysed.
