Episode 153: Tim Darcy Ellis on Juan Luis Vives

I recently came across a new book called the Secret Diaries of Juan Luis Vives by an author I'd never heard of before - Tim Darcy Ellis. I read the book and LOVED it. And so, I had to interview him. The book is awesome, and so is Tim. This is a conversation we had over Zoom in the Tudor Learning Circle (TudorLearningCircle.com to find out more info on live chats with authors).
