Download or read book KY BBQ written by Wes Berry and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book is an education in all things Kentucky barbecue” and the ideal guide for “a lip-smacking trip through the best BBQ in the Bluegrass State” (Maggie Green, author of The Kentucky Fresh Cookbook). The Kentucky Barbecue Book is a feast for readers who are eager to sample the finest fare in the state. From the banks of the Mississippi to the hidden hollows of the Appalachian Mountains, author and barbecue enthusiast Wes Berry hits the trail in search of the best smoke, the best flavor, and the best pitmasters he can find. This handy guide presents the most succulent menus and colorful personalities in Kentucky. Kentucky style barbecue is distinct because of its use of mutton and traditional cooking methods. Many of the establishments featured in this book are dedicated to the time-honored craft of cooking over hot hardwood coals inside cinderblock pits. These traditions are disappearing as methods requiring less manpower, less wood, and less skill gain ground.

Although arrested and convicted, the killer was soon pardoned by Governor Ruby Lafoon in what can only be described as partisan politics. In an act of loyalty to their slain sheriff, Noah's wife Lillie Tipton was named his successor just four days after his death, becoming one of the first female sheriffs in the Commonwealth. Researched and written by Tipton's great-grandson, Saving Noah describes the murder, the subsequent trial, and the political dealings that let a killer go free, plus the enduring love of friends and family in small town America.

Download or read book The Synagogues of Kentucky written by Lee Shai Weissbach and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lee Shai Weissbach's innovative study sheds light on the functioning of smaller Jewish communities in a state representative of many in the Midwest and South. The synagogue buildings of Kentucky tell much about the experience of Kentucky Jewry. Synagogues, especially in smaller towns, have often served as the only setting available for a wide variety of communal activities. Weissbach outlines the history of every congregation established in Kentucky and every house of worship that has served Kentucky Jewry over the last 150 years, considering such issues as the financing of construction, the selection of architects, the way synagogue buildings reveal congregational attitudes, and the way local synagogue design reflects national trends. Eighty-two photographs show every one of Kentucky's synagogues, including buildings that are no longer standing or have been converted to other uses. This pictorial record documents the variety, distinctiveness, and significance of these buildings as a part of the Commonwealth's architectural, cultural, and religious landscape.
Download or read book Voices of African Immigrants in Kentucky written by Francis Musoni and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2020-01-20 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following historical and theoretical overview of African immigration, the heart of this book is based on oral history interviews with forty-seven of the more than twenty-two thousand Africa-born immigrants in Kentucky. From a former ambassador from Gambia, a pharmacist from South Africa, a restaurant owner from Guinea, to a certified nursing assistant from the Democratic Republic of Congo—every immigrant has a unique and complex story of their life experiences and the decisions that led them to emigrate to the United States. The compelling narratives reveal why and how the immigrants came to the Bluegrass state—whether it was coming voluntarily as a student or forced because of war—and how they connect with and contribute to their home countries as well as to the US. The immigrants describe their challenges—language, loneliness, cultural differences, credentials for employment, ignorance towards Africa, and racism—and positive experiences such as education, job opportunities, and helpful people. One chapter focuses on family—including interviews with the second generations—and how the immigrants identify themselves.
