Welcome to the start of Tour Guide Tell All Season Two!
Rebecca and Becca are back to talk about some Labor History for September. We are starting with a natural disaster that wasn’t so natural after all, the Johnstown Flood
Join us as we discuss Gilded Age era excess and those who paid the most horrific price for that excess.
