Chess on the Board and Behind the Bars

Chess has intrigued human beings for centuries, and caused some players to become clinically insane. Tonight we're going to find out about a recent tournament in Vermont between civilians and inmates that's recognized by the U.S. Chess Federation. And we'll talk with David Shenk, the author of "The Immortal Game" a book that examines that huge impact the game has had on cultures around the world for centuries.
We'll talk with:
