Following the success of his collections of stories from funeral
directors, schoolteachers, doctors, and lawyers, folklorist William
Lynwood Montell presents a new volume of tales from Kentucky
sheriffs. Montell collected stories from all areas of the state to
represent the diversity of social and economic backgrounds in the
various communities the officers serve. Tales from Kentucky
Sheriffs covers elections, criminal behavior, and sheriff's
mistakes in a lighthearted and often humorous manner. The book
includes accounts of a drunk driver who thought he was in a
different state, a sheriff running a sting operation with the U.S.
Marshals, and a woman reporting a tomato thief in her garden. Other
accounts involve procedural errors with serious consequences, such
as the tale of a sheriff who mistakenly informs a man that his son
has committed suicide. Together, these firsthand narratives
preserve important aspects of Kentucky's history not likely to be
recorded elsewhere.
