More about today’s guests:
Don and Petie Kladstrup are former journalists, longtime residents of France and authors of three books, all wine-related but based around three wars that shook the world.
Their first, "Wine & War: the French, the Nazis and the Battle for France’s Greatest Treasure,"is an international best-seller and tells the story of how French wine producers in World War II struggled to survive under the Nazi occupation.
Their second book, "Champagne: How the World’s Most Glamorous Wine Triumphed Over War and Hard Times," revolves around World War I when nearly everything in that part of France was destroyed. Like "Wine & War," it's been translated into more than a dozen languages and become a hit worldwide.
In their third book, "Champagne Charlie: the Frenchman Who Taught Americans to Love Champagne," Don and Petie went further back in time to tell how a daring young Frenchman set off for America to seek his fortune but ended up being arrested as a spy for the South in the U.S. Civil War
