Download or read book Logan County written by Mark Griffin and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one of Kentucky's oldest counties, Logan County has a colorful history. Residents found religion at the Red River Meeting House during the Second Great Awakening. However, the land once known as Rogue's Harbor has been wrought with lawlessness. Visitors to the county today can tour the bank in the county seat of Russellville where the infamous Jesse James started his robbing spree in 1868. Tourists and residents alike are regaled with stories of a dueling Andrew Jackson and countless corrupt elections. Four men went on to become governors, while a fifth attempt fell short despite an infamous campaign. All of these things are documented in Images of America: Logan County along with the less controversial events in history: the everyday farmers who raised their cash crop of tobacco to contribute to a growing community and the establishment of the most southwestern of the Shaker communities at South Union.
Download or read book The Way it Was written by Nelson Weaver and published by . This book was released on 2016-08-12 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Way It Was, is a work of historic fiction by Nelson Weaver. The novel chronicles the life and times of two southern families. One family is black and the other is white. It begins in rural southern Kentucky where the land is flat and the dirt is rich. A place where plantations once spread across the landscape, and slavery provided the labor that produced tobacco, corn, wheat and cotton. The story is written within the context and perspective of a southern narrator, however, the themes of the novel are universal. The reader will see a common thread between the issues of the past and the issues of today.The author takes the reader on a journey through the eyes of each generation as it faced poverty, success, wars, joy and sadness. Each experience is woven into the fabric of history to the extent that history is practically a character in itself, as well as an influence on the lives of each character. The story ultimately focuses on the lives of Victor Wells and Nathan Weaver. Both boys were products of the ?Baby Boomer? generation. Their friendship struggled with the issues of race and civil rights in addition to all the normal problems associated with growing up during the 60s.Many of the characters, places and events are actual characters, places and events. Others are inspired by historical facts. Some are total fiction. Nelson Weaver, author of The Way It Was, is obviously proud of his Kentucky home. The ?Land of Logan County? is fertile with the seeds of countless stories. This is one story you will not want to miss.

Book Synopsis Peter Cartwright, Legendary Frontier Preacher by : Robert Bray
Download or read book Peter Cartwright, Legendary Frontier Preacher written by Robert Bray and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Believing deeply that the gospel touched every aspect of a person's life, Peter Cartwright was a man who held fast to his principles, resulting in a life of itinerant preaching and thirty years of political quarrels with Abraham Lincoln. Peter Cartwright, Legendary Frontier Preacher is the first full-length biography of this most famous of the early nineteenth-century Methodist circuit-riding preachers. Robert Bray tells the full story of the long relationship between Cartwright and Lincoln, including their political campaigns against each other, their social antagonisms, and their radical disagreements on the Christian religion, as well as their shared views on slavery and the central fact of their being "self-made." In addition, the biography examines in close detail Cartwright's instrumental role in Methodism's bitter "divorce" of 1844, in which the southern conferences seceded in a remarkable prefigurement of the United States a decade later. Finally, Peter Cartwright attempts to place the man in his appropriate national context: as a potent "man of words" on the frontier, a self-authorizing "legend in his own time," and, surprisingly, an enduring western literary figure.

Book Synopsis One of Morgan's Men by : John Marion Porter
Download or read book One of Morgan's Men written by John Marion Porter and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2011-02-02 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Marion Porter (1839--1898) grew up working at his family's farm and dry goods store in Butler County, Kentucky. The oldest of Reverend Nathaniel Porter's nine children, he was studying to become a lawyer when the Civil War began. As the son of a family of slave owners, Porter identified with the Southern cause and wasted little time enlisting in the Confederate army. He and his lifelong friend Thomas Henry Hines served in the Ninth Kentucky Calvary under John Hunt Morgan, the "Thunderbolt of the Confederacy." When the war ended, Porter and Hines opened a law practice together, but Porter was concerned that the story of his service during the Civil War and his family's history would be lost with the collapse of the Confederacy. In 1872, Porter began writing detailed memoirs of his experiences during the war years, including tales of scouting behind enemy lines, sabotaging a Union train, being captured and held as a prisoner of war, and searching for an army to join after his release. Editor Kent Masterson Brown spent several years preparing Porter's memoir for publication, clarifying details and adding annotations to provide historical context. One of Morgan's Men: Memoirs of Lieutenant John M. Porter of the Ninth Kentucky Cavalry is a fascinating firsthand account of the life of a remarkable Confederate soldier. In this unique volume, Porter's insights on Morgan and the Confederacy are available to readers for the first time.
