Online Lecture: Huey Long — Demagogue of the Bayou

More than 50 years ago Robert Penn Warren’s “All the King’s Men” was required reading in my freshman college English class, which formed my one and only conception of Huey Long all these many years. It was interesting to learn in Brian Altobello’s Road Scholar lecture that “All the King’s Men” was fiction and I appreciate that this lecture separated the fiction from the fact.
