The Christmas Truce of 1914 & Tom Averill's A Carol Dickens Christmas

December 21, 2014: This week on KPR Presents, we mark the 100th anniversary of the Christmas Truce of 1914, when soldiers took a break from the horrors of World War I to share an evening of song, snacks, and soccer. Kaye McIntyre visits the The World War I Museum in Kansas, talks to curator Lora Vogt about the Christmas Truce, how the museum is marking the occasion this month, and their new online exhibit on the Truce. We'll also hear from Topeka author Tom Averill about his latest book for the season, A Carol Dickens Christmas.

Kaye starts her weekends the same way you do: with Weekend Edition Saturday, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, This American Life, and To the Best of Our Knowledge. She started at Kansas Public Radio in 2001; in 2006, she became the producer of our weekly public affairs program, KPR Presents. In her spare time, she loves to read, travel, and attend theater.
