Beverley Olson Buller, chair of the William Allen White Children's Book Awards selection committee, commemorates the centennial of "Mary White," William Allen White's most famous editorial written in memory of his daughter. Rex Buchanan, interim director of the Kansas Geological Survey, talks about Kansas petroglyphs and what they tell us about the people who made them and their relationship to the land. Sister Rosemary Kolich, professor of English at the University of Saint Mary, recounts Abraham Lincoln's visit to Kansas in 1859. These hotline selections are available through May 31, 2021.
