Interview with Nathan Raab, The Hunt for History

Year(s) Discussed: 1789-1963

In this episode, I am joined by Nathan Raab, the nation’s leading dealer in important historical documents, and we discuss his work and how he developed the skills necessary to assess the value and the authenticity of documents and other historical artifacts. He also shares with us some of his stories from his search for the physical artifacts of American and world history as well as how he came around to writing a book about his work. More information can be found at https://www.presidenciespodcast.com.
