Preview: No Bigger Than A Piano Box, a North Country Schoolhouse in 1893

Betsy Kepes of Pierrepont, NY is a frequent commentator and book reviewer for North Country Public Radio, but she is also an historian whose focus is often on women who have lived in the North Country. Her latest collaboration with NCPR is an audio play celebrating Women’s History Month, which begins one week from today. The play, No Bigger Than A Piano Box, a North Country Schoolhouse in 1893, takes place in a St. Lawrence County schoolhouse in the late 19th century. She stopped by the station recently to talk about the production and how she did her research.
