On this week’s “Leaders and Legends” podcast, we discuss the untamed world of 19th-century finance (a reoccurring topic it seems); our guest is Greg Steinmetz, author of “American Rascal: How Jay Gould Built Wall Street’s Greatest Fortune.” If you think speculation is rotten these days, then you’ll enjoy listening to Greg detail the wanton nature of the Wall Street of yore.

Ambassador Ken Adelman is a legend in the arms control community. On this week’s “Leaders and Legends” podcast, we interview Amb. Adelman about his book “Reagan at Reykjavik: Forty-Eight Hours that Ended the Cold War.” It is a brilliant, insider’s account of the 1986 summit between President Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev (the leader of the Soviet Union). If you love Cold War history, then it doesn’t get any better than this absolute page turner.
