Description

Prepare to take a tour of some dark, strange moments of southern Indiana's history. From the scheming wife who wanted her dull husband out of the way to make room for a young love affair and the husband who stomped his wife to death because she wouldn't stop singing an irritating song, to the man who murdered an entire family to pay off some farming equipment and the case of a mistaken-identity murder, author Keven McQueen relates the sinister (or not so) motives and gruesome details of nine murders that occurred in southern Indiana between 1880 and 1912. With a detailed, if macabre, look at each story as well as the ambiguities surrounding the criminals and punishments, McQueen illuminates the darker side of Hoosier history.

Author Biography:

Keven McQueen is an instructor in the Department of English and Theater at Eastern Kentucky University and is the author of five books on Kentucky history, including the Offbeat Kentuckians series and the true crime book Murder in Old Kentucky. He lives in Berea and currently is working on several projects. He does not spend as much time in graveyards as you might think.
