Excerpt from Kentucky: A History of the State, Embracing a Concise Account of the Origin and Development of the Virginia Colony; Its Expansion Westward, and the Settlement of the Frontier Beyond the Alleghanies; The Erection of Kentucky as an Independent State In the preparation of the work, though a liberal estimate of the time and labor requisite for its execution had been made at the outset, it has been found necessary to extend the research far beyond the period' first allotted. The desire of the publishers has been to give to their patrons a history conscientiously prepared, and a volume faithfully executed in all its aspects. Much of the subject matter incorporated was submitted, before its publication, to those who weis deemed critics upon the topics treated, in order to detect if possible any errors of statement that might inadvertently creep in. That perfection has been attained in all of our efforts we do not claim, but that a fair measure of accuracy and completeness has been reached, Consistent with a work of this magnitude, we do maintain. Those who are interested in the very exciting events which transpired in Kentucky dur ing the period of the civil war, and in which her troops took part elsewhere, will find a fund of information between the covers of this book which has not heretofore been accessible to the general public, and much that has never before been published in any form. The difficulties to be overcome in collecting this material were almost insurmountable, owing to the frag, mentary and chaotic condition Of the documentary sources at command. Especially was this the case with that which had reference to the Confederates and their service. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
