Episode Synopsis

In this episode Lori Urso talks a bit about the history of preserving a New England treasure, Slater Mill, in Pawtucket. Because history encompasses a wide array or archival, preservation, and interpretive work, we also talked about the task of preservation, what it's value, and how you can help.
