The Encyclopedia of Northern Kentucky is the authoritative reference on the people, places, history, and rich heritage of the Northern Kentucky region. The encyclopedia defines an overlooked region of more than 450,000 residents and celebrates its contributions to agriculture, art, architecture, commerce, education, entertainment, literature, medicine, military, science, and sports. Often referred to as one of the points of the "Golden Triangle" because of its proximity to Lexington and Louisville, Northern Kentucky is made up of eleven counties along the Ohio River: Boone, Bracken, Campbell, Carroll, Gallatin, Grant, Kenton, Mason, Owen, Pendleton, and Robertson.
With more than 2,000 entries, 170 images, and 13 maps, this encyclopedia will help readers appreciate the region's unique history and culture, as well as the role of Northern Kentucky in the larger history of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the nation.

The region consists of 11 counties, and its culture has been shaped in part by its "gateway" status--between North and South, East and West, and urban and rural. With this encyclopedia and its 2,100 entries written by 300 authors, northern Kentucky's particularities are given long overdue attention. Signed, referenced articles, arranged alphabetically, discuss the geographical, social, cultural, religious, political, and economic history and characteristics of the area. Invaluable for students and researchers, this carefully prepared reference was brought together by editors Tenkotte (history and geography, Northern Kentucky U.; formerly of Thomas Moore College) and Claypool (emeritus, history, Northern Kentucky U.), who were backed by of a long list of sponsors (civic, corporate, educational, and individual).
