Sand 1.8.13 Eighteen With A Bullet

Ed Bremer talks with Claire Gebbens about her book, "The Last of the Blacksmiths."  The book is a historical novel of her German ancestors.  Based on letters from the mid 1800's, discovered in Germany, and her own genealogical research, Claire creates the story of a 15-year old boy who comes to the United States to apprentice as a blacksmith in his uncle's Cleveland, Ohio shop.
