Frank Batten: The Untold Story of the Founder of the Weather Channel ReviewThis is the crisply written story the late titan of Virginia journalism, Frank Batten. Batten also had a notable career in cable TV and, after his stunning business successes, in philanthropy, especially educational philanthropy. The title highlights the Weather Channel, but the book is not primarily about the Weather Channel. It is an extended biographical and business history essay, based on lengthy interviews with Batten himself and with many of his associates. The author also draws from contemporary newspaper coverage of events, but apparently not from any corporate archives. The story of this remarkable man makes a remarkably interesting book. Because of Batten's wide influence and varied interests, the narrative also provides as an unexpected byproduct a fast-moving account of the Hampton Roads area (Norfolk, Virginia, and the surrounding cities) through the Batten decades -- all in fewer than 200 pages.Frank Batten: The Untold Story of the Founder of the Weather Channel Overview
