Articoli correlati a Crawfish Bottom: Recovering a Lost Kentucky Community
Sinossi
A small neighborhood in northern Frankfort, Kentucky, Crawfish Bottom was located on fifty acres of swampy land along the Kentucky River. "Craw's" reputation for vice, violence, moral corruption, and unsanitary conditions made it a target for urban renewal projects that replaced the neighborhood with the city's Capital Plaza in the mid-1960s.
Douglas A. Boyd's Crawfish Bottom: Recovering a Lost Kentucky Community traces the evolution of the controversial community that ultimately saw four-hundred families displaced. Using oral histories and firsthand memories, Boyd not only provides a record of a vanished neighborhood and its culture but also demonstrates how this type of study enhances the historical record. A former Frankfort police officer describes Craw's residents as a "rough class of people, who didn't mind killing or being killed." In Crawfish Bottom, the former residents of Craw acknowledge the popular misconceptions about their community but offer a richer and more balanced view of the past.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A small neighborhood in northern Frankfort, Kentucky, Crawfish Bottom was located on fifty acres of swampy land along the Kentucky River. 'Craw's' reputation for vice, violence, moral corruption, and unsanitary conditions made it a target for urban renewal projects, and the district was razed to make way for the city's Capital Plaza in the mid-1960s. Douglas A. Boyd provides a record of the vanished neighborhood and its culture, acknowledging the popular misconceptions about the community while also offering a richer and more balanced view of its past. Using oral histories, firsthand recollections, and accounts from 'official' sources, Boyd constructs a case study that highlights the ways in which community memory is formed and demonstrates the importance of these memories to folklorists and historians.
