For the next hour we looks for the history and literary culture of this historic city. Also known as the Horse Capital of the world. What people dont realize is kentucky nearly lost the horses at the highest levels at one time and this was after the civil war for generation when it went out east. It was a case of there have always been forces here. In fact thoroughbreds and kentucky bred breds the highest number but the one big money went up north to new york and new jersey after the civil war because thats where the finance and the stock market was.

And please do mince the road is one section of a much larger highway that is going to cannot pittsburgh area with new orleans on the one side and the literal interpretation of what the constitution is calling for him the other side. We in the center of the village is about 14 miles south of the ohio river. It is a logical stopping point far enough south of the ohio river so stage coaches might want to water their horses or change horses. This is an important farming area of the richest land in the state of the kentucky mason county where we are right now. We are going to be on a section of the road that probably dates the 1920s and 30s. Fred decides the road is another small section of the langston trade.
