Leadership Lessons from Our Top Presidents with Talmage Boston

Roger welcomes Talmage Boston, a lawyer, historian, and author of “How the Best Did It: Leadership Lessons From Our Top Presidents,” which was released in April of last year. They explore Boston’s top 8 presidents, the leadership lessons they teach Americans — especially young Americans developing their leadership characteristics, and the importance of optimism, unification, and the ability of a president to connect with the American people. Plus, they discuss how baseball history is intertwined with American history and how it shapes the American zeitgeist. Talmage Boston is a partner at the Shackelford, Bowen, McKinley & Norton law firm specializing in trial and appellate commercial litigation. He’s one of the most recognized and awarded lawyers in Texas and is the only lawyer to receive a “Presidential Citation” from eight different presidents of the State Bar of Texas for outstanding service to the State Bar. As a historian and author, his combined legal knowledge and fascination with all things American history have contributed to a catalog of books on the subjects of law, American history and baseball.
