Rare Book Display At Allegany College of Maryland

December 2nd, 2024 by WCBC Radio

Allegany College of Maryland is displaying rare Christmas literary pieces in the ACM Learning Commons through the end of the year. The book collections are named in the honor of late ACM English Professor Janet Zastrow Cook. Communications Coordinator Kristen Kehrwald tells WCBC that Cook’s husband Gary has put a display together since 2014…

“The exciting thing about this exhibition is that it features works you will not often see in our community. It includes literary works that are really rarely available for viewing in our area. This includes a 16th century King James Holy Bible and first editions of all five Charles Dickens’ Christmas stories.”
