Daniel Boone is celebrated as a Kentucky frontiersman, but what about his service in the French and Indian War? Custer’s Last Stand in the Great Sioux War is legendary, but few remember Custer’s “next-to-last-stand” in Elizabethtown, where he was sent to suppress the Ku Klux Klan and hunt down moonshiners just before heading to the Montana Territory and into history.

Featuring tales of warriors from a diverse range of backgrounds, Hidden History of Kentucky Soldiers honors generations of Kentuckians who put their lives on the line for their country.
