I am unfortunely still looking for my answer about Cordell Ave which I
know many of you would think that writing another message like this
would be worthless.  However I am taking another different approach
and I am wondering if thier are any publishers or readers that know of
any books or other publications that have been written about bethesda
in specific. Also does anyone know of any articles in any newspaper
that has been written about bethesda in specific over the last 50
years.

I have tired asking the Montgomery County History Society but they
have been unable to help me.

There are surprisingly few books about the Bethesda area and I did not
bother with the extremely rare ones since you probably wouldn’t be
able to find a copy of one of them anyway.

Here are some which might have the information you seek but your
question really didn’t provide much detail.

The story of the Burning Tree (Club) – Bethesda, Maryland, is being
auctioned at Amazon.
http://s1.amazon.com/exec/varzea/ts/exchange-glance/Y01X2162537X2376570/qid=1030462025/sr=1-1/103-4623839-7103810

Dreams of Glory: A Mother's Season With Her Son's High School Football
Team, by Judy Oppenheimer.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0671687549/qid=1030462116/sr=1-10/ref=sr_1_10/103-4623839-7103810?v=glance&s=books

Tales from old Bethesda, by Neal J. Conway is being offered used for
$48.95. There are no details about what this book might concern or
will contain but you can contact some of the sellers offering it for
sale.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0964947218/qid=1030461930/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_5/103-4623839-7103810?v=glance&s=books


Since I don’t know exactly what you are looking for, the hundreds or
thousands of newspaper articles about events in Bethesda, Md, which,
after all, is a major medical center, are difficult to sort by
relevance.

If all else has failed, may I suggest going to a larger library,
perhaps a university library which has access to Lexis-Nexis, a huge
but somewhat expensive database of published materials, mainly from
newspapers and periodicals. Or, you could go to the online site and
sign up for a search. You will need a credit card to access this
service.

I hope this has been of help.
