SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND: Bread & Beauty
DESCRIPTION:with Claudia Kousoulas Just as the force and flow of ancient glaciers deposited soil and shaped hills\, our decisions about property\, policy\, family\, and food also shape the landscape. So much of what we value—a clean environment\, local food\, a diverse landscape\, and a varied economy—comes together in Montgomery County’s Agricultural Reserve. This talk\, based on Bread & Beauty: A Year in Montgomery County’s Agricultural Reserve\, will tell the history of the Reserve\, and its historical foodways\, from the foods (and drink) of the C&O Canal boatmen to the diversity captured in Elizabeth Ellicott Lea’s1850 Domestic Cookery. This program originally aired in October 2021. ​ Rewind available January 1 through January 7.

SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND: A Wide Place in the Road -- The Roots of Modern Bethesda
DESCRIPTION:with Hank Levine | Ever wondered how (and why) Bethesda came to be where and what it is today? Bethesda Historical Society Secretary and Tour Chair Hank Levine will take us through how\, between 1750 and 1920\, a fall line\, a ridge line\, a turnpike\, a trolley line\, rail lines\, the coming of the automobile\, and Chevy Chase set the stage for the development of Bethesda into the affluent suburb and urban center it is today. Hear (and see) stories of early churches\, stores\, and real estate moguls; the decades Bethesda was bypassed and almost died; the experimental animal farm that struck many as less than heaven scent; and the founding of the town’s first neighborhoods. ​

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Nancy Pickard\, with an introduction from Ellen Prentiss Campbell | On January 13\, 2021\, the Secretary of the Interior designated a small cottage in Rockville\, Maryland\, locally known as Frieda’s Cottage\, as a National Historic Landmark.

She became internationally renowned for her pioneering contributions to the treatment of schizophrenia and her dynamic understanding of her patients. Dr. Fromm-Reichmann was a gifted and compassionate therapist whose work is significant in medical history and remains relevant in the field today. Learn about the doctor and how Peerless Rockville acquired and restored her cottage and advocated for National Historic Landmark recognition. From the January 2023 Montgomery County History Conference.   A recording will be available on this page and on https://montgomeryhistory.org/history-conversations/ From Monday\, January 29 through Sunday\, February 4.  ​
