Narrated by Walter Cronkite. In 1924, Jim Newton began remarkable friendships with Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, Dr. Alexis Carrel, and Charles Lindbergh. In 1987, he chronicled these relationships in his book, Uncommon Friends. Now you will relive the story of Uncommon Friends in this award-winning documentary that has been aired on PBS stations throughout the nation. Reeve Lindbergh writes, "To my mind, the Newton story is much less about fame than about friendship, and this is what gives it true significance. Friendship is an unconditional outreach of the heart from person to person, a lasting empathetic connection that transcends all the circumstances and conditions of life. It is priceless."
