Kentucky is a land blessed with a rich bounty of rivers-- unpredictable forces of nature, flowing through wide, sunny meadows and dark, rock-bound hollows. This work serves as an account of the three most powerful-- the Rolling Fork, the Nolin and the Rough-- as well as the people who first called this frontier home. Also included is the history of the land, exploring the impact of the Civil War, steamboats and railroads.

Chapters tell of the pioneers, frontier preachers, future presidents, hardscrabble farmers and inspired visionaries, whose lives were shaped by the rough land and the rivers that were here first. Whether wasteful or inventive, violent or graceful, vain or kind, those who have called this region home know that survival means living in harmony with the land and the rivers.
