STORY BOOK "Wrong Way Corrigan, Blind Boy"

Episode 01. Jim Ameche is narrator of Story Book. Storyteller Jim Ameche shares surprising and interesting ‘infotainment’ pieces from The Story Book of Life. The relatively short format (episodes ran about 12 minutes) had room at the beginning and end for local advertisement, and Story Book even had a pause in the middle for another ad. The stories would appeal to later fans of Paul Harvey’s The Rest of the Story which would go on the air in 1976. Each spot included two unrelated stories that would be somewhat familiar to history students, but listeners would be hooked until the end to find out whether the story was, in fact, the one they thought it was. This anticipation also makes The Story Book of Life classic "Drive Way Listening". A Drive Way show is one that is so interesting that when you reach home, you will sit with the car running to hear the end of the story.
