NSPS Radio Hour — August 10, 11 a.m. EDT

When author/physician/attorney William J. Morton was a guest on the NSPS Radio Hour in January 2012, he talked about his keen interest in surveying, and about a new book he wanted to write. The book, Andrew Ellicott: The Stargazer Who Defined America, is now completed. It tells the story of the four-year long expedition to survey the boundary which was established between the United States and Spain by the signing of the Pinckney Treaty in 1795. Join Host Curt Sumner as he and Bill Morton talk about Morton’s adventures in researching for the new book, and about his hero Ellicott.
