  • KENTUCKY in AMERICAN LETTERS Volume I by JOHN WILSON TOWNSEND
    KENTUCKY IN AMERICAN LETTERS Volume I BY JOHN WILSON TOWNSEND KENTUCKY IN AMERICAN LETTERS JOHN FILSON John Filson, the first Kentucky historian, was born at East Fallowfield, Pennsylvania, in 1747. He was educated at the academy of the Rev. Samuel Finley, at Nottingham, Maryland. Finley was afterwards president of Princeton University. John Filson looked askance at the Revolutionary War, and came out to Kentucky about 1783. In Lexington he conducted a school for a year, and spent his leisure hours in collecting data for a history of Kentucky. He interviewed Daniel Boone, Levi Todd, James Harrod, and many other Kentucky pioneers; and the information they gave him was united with his own observations, forming the material for his book. Filson did not remain in Kentucky much over a year for, in 1784, he went to Wilmington, Delaware, and persuaded James Adams, the town's chief printer, to issue his manuscript as The Discovery, Settlement, and Present State of Kentucke; and then he continued his journey to Philadelphia, where his map of the three original counties of Kentucky—Jefferson, Fayette, and Lincoln— was printed and dedicated to General Washington and the United States Congress. This Wilmington edition of Filson's history is far and away the most famous history of Kentucky ever published. Though it contained but 118 pages, one of the six extant copies recently fetched the fabulous sum of $1,250—the highest price ever paid for a Kentucky book. The little work was divided into two parts, the first part being devoted to the history of the country, and the second part was the first biography of Daniel Boone ever published.

  • The Impact of Coal Mining in the Evolution of Appalachian Kentucky Literature: a Retrospective James B
    129 James B. Goode The Impact of Coal Mining in the Evolution of Appalachian Kentucky Literature: A Retrospective James B. Goode My topic is one dear to my heart because of my deep connection to the coalfields of Appalachia. Both my grandfathers were coal miners and my Daddy spent 40 years in the industry—much of that as a rank-and-file, union, underground coal miner at the International Harvester Mine at Benham, Kentucky. The drama that played daily in my family’s life and community has been paramount in my writing and prompted me to a lifelong pursuit of reading, studying, and writing about the literature related to Appalachian coal communities. A poem I penned about the emotionally intense drama of life for coal miners appeared in my 1993 book of poetry Up From the Mines and sets the stage for this brief talk*: PIECING THE COAL QUILT These are the laboring ones of the tired, the poor. Tempting tons of fate poised above their battery lights The sky so black, no seams of sunlight break across vision To reveal the nature flaws waiting to claim a life to dust. And spent for what? For the survival of man? For the whims? For the pleasures? From darkness they came into the world To toil in darkness And to darkness will return. I have been to their funerals. Sometimes in the coal camp houses Caskets wet with tears Roll from the detached steel hands of morticians Across the vision of innocent children Who wonder? And Why? About a world of such sadistic appetites.
