23-01 Kathy Schulz--Underground Railroad in Ohio Conversations With Columbiana County

Columbiana County native, Kathy Schulz, join us to discuss her recently published book, The Underground Railroad in Ohio.

Kathy tells us what the Underground Railroad was (and what it wasn't!!). We learn why Ohio was truly at the heart of the Underground Railroad and the important role that Columbiana County had in the Underground Railroad.

We are also introduced to a number of very interesting characters whom exemplify the people of the Underground Railroad.
