Arnold Lecture: David Tuch in Conversation with Dick Lehr
David Tuch discusses his debut book, The Wireless Operator: The Untold Story of the British Sailor Who Invented the Modern Drug Trade. Drawing on newly declassified records, Tuch tells the story of his cousin Harold Derber, whose smuggling operations “helped shape the modern drug trade and the war on drugs that followed.” He is joined in conversation by journalist Dick Lehr, co-author of Black Mass.
