My discussion with John Jacquemart about the history of Phoenix.

Have you ever wondered how Phoenix got where it is today? Phoenix was just a small town at the turn of the 20th century, but now it’s a huge metropolitan area that’s growing quickly. Today I’m sitting down and talking with John Jacquemart, a local Phoenix historian. We’ll talk about history, how our area has changed over the years, and more.
