For researchers, students, and all who cherish local history, The Kentucky African American Encyclopedia is an indispensable reference that highlights the diversity of the state's culture and history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this sweeping history of racial interaction and violence from the post-Civil War to school integration in the 1960s, Lee Durham Stone, Ph.D., reframes the "idea of Kentucky." Through this searing lens, Dr. Stone shows how the institutional violence of enslavery rippled through each subsequent era in the Bluegrass State. Examined herein are a trial and "legal lynching" in 1907, the secretive Possum Hunters of 1914-1916 who terrorized the Western Kentucky coalfields, Jim Crow education, the strange case of a physician who drank poison before entering the courtroom (he died), the examination of small-town spatial segregation, and the local resistance to school integration in 1963. There is more, too, including Black businesses and African Americans in coal mining. This book cites all its sources, so it would be useful for students and other researchers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis fantastic collection of sketches by Robert A. Powell represent scenes that are Distinctly Kentucky. The symbols and subjects cover the diverse natural and man-made landmarks as well as activities that depict the colorful heritage of Kentucky. To fully represent our great state, subjects were selected from each of the geographic regions of Kentucky as well as a balance of landmarks, activities, symbols, and natural wonders from every designated region of the commonwealth. Many of the subjects may be similar to ones found in other parts of the country, but every unique picture in this book is distinctly Kentucky. It is commonly known as the Bluegrass State, a nickname based on the bluegrass found in many of its pastures due to the fertile soil and limestone water. Kentucky is best known around the world for horse racing, bourbon distilleries, moonshine, coal, bluegrass music, college basketball, and Kentucky Fried Chicken.
