Program 752: Amsterdam Canals; The Last Island; Coimbra

Release Date: 04-27-2024

Description

A Dutch guide invites us to imagine a day on the water exploring Amsterdam's iconic canals. Then a historian shares what little we know of the elusive Sentinelese — likely the most isolated, least contacted people on earth — and what he learned by traveling to nearby islands in the Bay of Bengal. And a tour guide from Portugal tells us why the venerable university of town of Coimbra is such a delight to explore.

Guests

  • Amsterdam-based tour guide Dennis Gerrits
  • Adam Goodheart, author of "The Last Island: Discovery, Defiance, and the Most Elusive Tribe on Earth" (Godine)
  • Lisbon-based tour guide Cristina Duarte
