NPR Morning Edition host and author Steve Inskeep was in Asheville Monday to promote his new book "Jacksonland." It tells the bloody story of the long-running feud between President Andrew Jackson and Cherokee Chief John Ross over land that would become the southern United States.
Inskeep spoke with fans during a lunch with WCQS, and later gave a reading at Malaprop's Bookstore in downtown Asheville. In between those two events, he sat down with WCQS Morning Edition host Jeremy Loeb for a chat, which you can hear by clicking the audio file above.
