Wilhelm's Way: The Chemist Who Sved the Manhattan Project
Most people know World War II ended when the United States used atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, resulting in Japan’s surrender. What is less known is how a scientist in Iowa discovered a way to create uranium, a necessary but scare radioactive element used to build the bombs in the Manhattan Project. Author Teresa Wilhelm Waldof shares the story of Dr. Harley Wilhem, and how his “keen analytical mind and problem-solving skills helped end World War II.” Waldof presents an enlightening talk about her book “Wilhelm’s Way: The Chemist Who Saved the Manhattan Project.” The program is at the Fergus Falls Public Library on Tuesday, July 16th from 6-7:30 p.m. This project is funded in part or in whole with monies from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage fund. It is free and open to the public.
