Bookshop Interview with Author Tim Grove (Episode #165)

10/19/2022

In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Tim Grove discusses his latest narrative nonfiction book, The World Turned Upside Down. It is the story of the dramatic Siege of Yorktown in 1781, the last major battle of the American Revolution. This real-life tale is told from five very different perspectives—that of General George Washington, the notorious traitor Benedict Arnold, the young French hero Lafayette, British General Lord Cornwallis, and an enslaved man named James who became a spy. Through painstaking research, Tim shares with readers the story of the bold decisions made by famous military leaders, as well as the everyday courage shown by civilians. As well as being an author, Tim is an historian and educator. His books are written with middle grade and young adult readers in mind, but you’ll find plenty of adults reading them as well. In this episode, I’ll chat with Tim about his writing journey, the various archival images and letters he included in the book, and the most astonishing part of the Yorktown victory, which he calls the Big Secret.
