Bourbon and Kentucky: A History Distilled
Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 12:26 pm
I was wondering if anybody else watched the program "Bourbon and Kentucky: A History Distilled" on KET last week? I tend to be a bit critical of historical programs so I was interested in other opinions. I found it fairly interesting and there were items he found I was not aware of, but I am wary of his history. When he started with an incorrect definition of Bourbon I became suspicious of his research. As I saw some other incorrect statements I grew to doubt everything he was saying to some degree. It should be pointed out that the program was paid forby Lexington Tourism and definitely had a bluegrass/Lexington twist to most everything said. I want to hear your opinions.
