"Betsy Bonaparte" with Caprina Smith
Manage episode 290162500 series 2912379
It's a sin, really, how few women grace the contents of our history books regardless of the impact they might have had on their own time. Betsy Bonaparte is no exception. Despite marrying Napoleon’s brother and taking control of her own destiny, her story still manages to be tragically undertold. Join Guest Caprina Smith with host Talia as they tell the tale of their hometown hero!
