Rodgers Readers - The Strange Case of Dr. Couney

Rodgers Readers - The Strange Case of Dr. Couney In-Person

Come join us to discuss The Strange Case of Dr. Couney: How a Mysterious European Showman Saved Thousands of American Babies by Dawn Raffel.

 

NPR Summary:  "Writer Dawn Raffel discovered a chance mention of the 1933 Century of Progress in Chicago in her late father's notes. The Strange Case of Dr. Couney chronicles her trip down a historical rabbit hole, uncovering (and recovering) the incubator attractions and the history around them. It's a mosaic mystery told in vignettes, cliffhangers, curious asides, and some surreal plot twists as Raffel investigates the secrets of the man who changed infant care in America."
