Throughout the conversation, Baird referenced several literary works to illustrate broader philosophical and historical points. She discussed Cecil Woodham-Smith's book 'The Reason Why,' praising the author's incredible account of the Charge of the Light Brigade. Baird also brought up Elizabeth Strout's novel 'Lucy by the Sea,' utilizing the story to reflect on poignant, fleeting moments in life, such as the final time a parent performs routine, everyday tasks for a growing child. Furthermore, Baird analyzed Harriet Beecher Stowe's classic novel 'Uncle Tom's Cabin,' discussing how a specific lyrical line associated with Isaac Newton was actually incorporated by Stowe into her famous work. Through these diverse literary references, Baird connected storytelling and historical writing to deep emotional truths, parental love, and the philosophical underpinnings of human resilience.
