| Summary |
Presents the history, geography, people, politics and government, economy, social life and customs, state events and attractions, and notable people of Kentucky. Verdant pastures, the Kentucky Derby, banjo music, coalfields, and a powerful spirit all contribute to the image of the Bluegrass State. The character of Kentuckians is as diverse as the state's landscape of rugged mountains and rolling hills. Kentucky is the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth president of the United States, and Jefferson Davis, the first and only president of the Confederacy. |
