C-SPAN’s 2011 Cities Tour takes our Book TV and American History TV on the road. On the first weekend of each month, we’ll feature the literary life and history of each of these selected cities.

Working with our cable partners, our producing team will take specially outfitted Local Content Vehicles (LCVs) into these selected cities, visiting various literary and historic sites as we interview local historians, authors and civic leaders. We’ll also meet with students, teachers, civic leaders and organizations to talk about C-SPAN’s mission in covering public affairs programming, and what the local connections are to national politics.
