loriAfter a conversation about this on Bluesky (I have those occasionally, but not a lot lol) I really want some book recs for books about Kentucky history. Primarily early Kentucky history (early settlement stuff, and stuff about indigenous groups before European settlement), black and LGBT Kentucky history, and coal mining/labor movement history, but if there's other interesting topics that's great too. I'll take stuff about Appalachia in general but would ideally like for it to spend a lot of time in Kentucky, some Appalachia stuff will be like...mostly about WV then briefly mention Kentucky lol.
Ideally I'd like stuff available as ebooks since that's easier on my eyes and hands but if it's good I'll accept paper.
If you're from Kentucky or know people who read stuff like this in general please boost.
