An interview with Louis Daniel Nimschke

[wowilson]

Hello all, my video about Nimschke is now up on Youtube, and it is free to watch. I took about a year gathering as much information about Nimschke as I could, and now you can see what I found out. I present the information in the form of the podcast that I host, and I debuted the movie over the weekend at Mr. Ray Cover's THERE event.
In this film, I discuss where Nimschke came from, the circumstances of his voyage to America, showing all of the known locations and situations. I also show two photos of the man himself. In all I calculate that I have doubled what was previously known about Louis D Nimschke, as well as shedding a little light on people that were in his orbit.
Anyway, check it out and tell me what I got wrong. Click below to see movie

Thanks for watching it. I thought the voyage part was pretty wild and kinda hard to imagine being in that situation. What's your thought on the 2nd Nimschke photo?

no thoughts really. how many of us would endure like he did. aside from his engraving skills, he must have been one tough cookie.
