Toledo historian Tedd Long is today's guest. I came across a story about Tedd and his book Forgotten Visitors: Northwest Ohio's Notable Guests in a story in the Blade on Sunday.

Amelia Earhart, Mark Twain, Frederick Douglass and many other human luminaries have visited Toledo, and had glowing things to say about it.

Tedd is an invaluable trove of Toledo history with his knowledge and anecdotes. Please enjoy our chat and visit his site Holy Toledo History.
