Book description
Incredible true stories find strange, new magic in American history in this wondrous first book from the creator of the award-winning podcast The Memory Palace. The Memory Palace is a collection of tiny, crystalline historical tales that read like luminous short fiction, and, like Nate DiMeo's acclaimed podcast of the same name, conjure lost moments and forgotten figures who are calling out across time to be remembered. Space capsules filled with fruit flies and future Senators. A socialite scientist who gave up her glamorous life to follow love and the elusive prairie chicken. A boy genius on a path to change the world who got lost in the theoretical possibilities of streetcar transfers. An enslaved man who stole a boat and charted a course that led him to freedom, to war, and to Congress. A farmer's wife who put down her butter churn, picked up the butter, and became an international art star. An amusement park glowing at the water's edge when electric lights were a brand-new thing. This cabinet of curiosities teems with wonder. For fifteen years, Nate DiMeo has turned to the past to make sense of the way we live today, finding beauty and meaning in history's dustier corners, holding things up to the light and weaving facts, keen insight, wit and poignant observation into unforgettable tales. With new stories and treasured favorites from the beloved podcast assembled alongside dynamic illustrations and archival photographs for the first time, enchantment awaits you in The Memory Palace.
