What a GREAT app!

This app is a gem in terms of recording the history of Southern Ohio. Very well written, historically accurate articles. Including not only the local events but linking them to how they also reflected national trends makes the articles much more informative.

If you live in the area or have reason to want to learn more about the history of the Portsmouth or Southern Ohio region I strongly recommend this app.
