2:01Now PlayingC-SPAN's "America's Book Club" — Author and journalist Candice Millard describes her inspiration for writing books about lesser-known aspects of the lives of major historical figures.
"I want to write the kind of books that I want to read," Ms. Millard said. "Books that make you feel like you're there, and make you connect with somebody who maybe lived in a completely different place, lived at a completely different time."
Watch the full interview SUNDAY at 6pm & 9pm ET/PT on C-SPAN.
