#41 Pursuit Of The Simple Life
Milford W. Howard, an attorney by trade and former United States Congressman, wrote a very interesting feature article for The Birmingham News in 1929. And yes, the article is the one we mentioned in the last episode about our favorite "beehive like structure" dwelling man--Henry Stuart.
Milford sought Henry out to get his thoughts regarding the simple life and wrote an amazing article, including poems, personal letters, and of course his own commentary about the man Henry and the idea of the "simple life".
We hope you will enjoy listening to our version of an "audible newspaper article" and perhaps it will provide you some "food for thought".
