Bestselling author Douglas Brunt joins C&B to discuss his latest book, The Lost Empire of Emanuel Nobel. The conversation dives into the hidden history of the Nobel family, the lesser-known nephew of Alfred Nobel, and the vast business empire built around oil, innovation, and global influence that was largely erased from history.

Good take on NOBEL here from @townhallcom – “vividly and seamlessly relates the swift shifts of leadership, political tumult, and trauma that Emanuel Nobel endured during the Bolshevik Revolution…” – thorough and thoughtful piece by @ArthurCSchaper – thanks and keep reviewing… https://t.co/2Nh7kIlbTF
