Statue Honors John Gilbert Winant, A Humble Politician In Life And Death

John Gilbert Winant is the most famous politician you may never have heard of. Quiet and humble, he was a three-term governor of New Hampshire, and after that the U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom during World War II. But in many ways, his tragic death has always overshadowed his life.

Today, a new statue of Winant was unveiled in the Granite State. Todd Bookman (@toddbookman) of Here & Now contributor New Hampshire Public Radio has the story on Winant's life and times.
