New Civil War History Book, KENTUCKY'S REBEL PRESS, Released this Week
by BWW News Desk - January 09, 2018
Throughout the Civil War, the influence of the popular press and its skillful use of propaganda was extremely significant in Kentucky. Union and Confederate sympathizers were scattered throughout the border slave state, and in 1860, at least twenty-eight of the Commonwealth's approximately sixty newspapers were pro-Confederate, making the secessionist cause seem stronger in Kentucky than it was in reality. In addition, the impact of these rebel presses reached beyond the region to readers throughout the nation.

Below this set rests a chamber choir and music pit kept in the shadows, just out of view from the action.
