Kentucky history centers on the Bluegrass; this is not to say
that the rest of Kentucky does not have a rich story, but
chronologically, the beginning was here. Too, Bluegrass history can
scarcely be separated from the rest of the state. Boonesboro and
Harrodsburg, Henry Clay and Elizabeth Madox Roberts are the
cherished possessions of all Kentuckians. Jane Todd Crawford and
Dr. Ephraim McDowell stood in for humanity. It is a great matter of
local pride that they did so in Kentucky.
Bluegrass Cavalcade brings together fifty-five Kentucky writers
to write about their home state and to capture a taste of the rich
regional flavor of the Bluegrass as an introduction to Kentucky
history. Among the selections included in this volume is
represented a small army of distinguished authors who have viewed
Kentucky from various perspectives. Edited by revered state
historian Thomas D. Clark, Bluegrass Cavalcade is meant to be a
literary and historical reception where these esteemed Kentucky
writers meet their readers.
