Historian E. Merton Coulter famously said that Kentucky ""waited
until after the war was over to secede from the Union."" In this
fresh study, Anne E. Marshall traces the development of a
Confederate identity in Kentucky between 1865 and 1925 that belied
the fact that Kentucky never left the Union and that more
Kentuckians fought for the North than for the South. Following the
Civil War, the people of Kentucky appeared to forget their Union
loyalties, embracing the Democratic politics, racial violence, and
Jim Crow laws associated with formerly Confederate states.
Although, on the surface, white Confederate memory appeared to
dominate the historical landscape of postwar Kentucky, Marshall's
closer look reveals an active political and cultural dialogue that
included white Unionists, Confederate Kentuckians, and the state's
African Americans, who, from the last days of the war, drew on
Union victory and their part in winning it to lay claim to the
fruits of freedom and citizenship. Rather than focusing exclusively
on postwar political and economic factors, Creating a Confederate
Kentucky looks over the longer term at Kentuckians'
activities--public memorial ceremonies, dedications of monuments,
and veterans organizations' events--by which they commemorated the
Civil War and fixed the state's remembrance of it for sixty years
following the conflict. |Marshall traces the development of a

The main goal of knowledge translation (KT) is to ensure that
diverse communities benefit from academic research results through
improved social and health outcomes. But despite growing interest
in researcher-user collaborations, little is known about what makes
or breaks these types of relationships. Knowledge Translation in
Context is an essential tool for researchers to learn how to be
effective partners in the KT process. Drawing on expertise and
studies from across the globe, Elizabeth Banister, Bonnie
Leadbeater, and Anne Marshall outline a variety of perspectives on
KT processes. Case studies outline the uses of KT in many contexts,
including community, policy, Indigenous, and non-profit
organizations. While recognizing the specificity of each situation,
Knowledge Translation in Context highlights the most important
elements that have led KT to succeed (or fail) as a dynamic,
multidirectional process.
