Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
One of the first written accounts of Montgomery County, Maryland describes it as a land rich in game and fertile of soil, the home of the “frank and cheerful” Piscataways, and a place where you can hear the roar of the Great Falls. Authors of a new book on the County join Kojo to discuss its history and evolution.
Guests
- William Offut Retired history teacher, columinist
- Jane C. Sween Librarian, Montgomery County Historical Society
