Description

Postcards from the early twentieth century reveal much about America's past, portraying almost every subject imaginable and offering modern readers a snapshot glimpse of life in days gone by. The collection within these pages explores the history of Adair, Barren, Green, Hart, and Taylor Counties, documenting the people and places, the lifestyles and landmarks of the South Central region of the Bluegrass State. From the evolution of transportation in Kentucky to such varied activities as wheat threshing, molasses production, and even "moonshining," the images captured on these cards are of great social and historical significance. Rare glimpses of churches, schools, hotels, and businesses that no longer stand make this a must-see for present-day residents of the area.

Author Biography:

Authors Carl Howell and Dixie Hibbs have published numerous historical works on local history in Kentucky. Together they co-authored a previous title in this series, Central Kentucky: Bullitt, Marion, Nelson, Spencer, and Washington Counties. In this volume, Howell and Hibbs once again use charming, historic postcards to shed new light on the proud heritage of their home state.
