		Tomas Garrigue Masaryk was already a grand old man in his 70s when the 32-year-old Capek began interviewing him in 1922.
		Masaryk's explanation of his position gives a sense of his typically upright and commonsensical approach: "I considered the Manuscripts issue to be first and foremost a moral issue: if they were forgeries we had to confess it to the world; our pride, our culture could not be based on a lie."
		Talks With T. Masaryk is the story of how a poor country boy, half Czech, half Slovak, got himself an education, married a girl from Brooklyn, became a philosophy professor, and grew increasingly controversial by defending a young Jew accused of ritual murder and by unmasking Czech historical sagas as forgeries.
