Saturday Mornings host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host, award-winning author Neil Humphreys dive into history on The Wide World segment and exciting, true story of “The Peking Express: The Bandits Who Stole a Train, Stunned the West, and Broke the Republic of China.” How the great train robbery of 1923 changed China and the world. James Zimmerman, the author, tells us the true story of banditry, political intrigue, heroism, and a reflection of the excesses of the Warlord Era in early 20th Century China. The crisis – covered extensively in newspapers around the world – lasted for six weeks while the bandits moved the hostages across the countryside with the Chinese army in pursuit.
