Over the weekend I finished another intriguing book. It's called: Edmonson County, KY. United States Circuit Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit vs Mammoth Cave Development Company, George D. Morrison, William M. O'Neal and Otis Turner, March 1927. This is a fascinating look at the time of the "Cave Wars" at Mammoth Cave where individuals were diverting visitors from all over the United States to the "New Entrance". George D. Morrison and his company opened a "New Entrance" to Mammoth Cave which connected to a part of Mammoth. By road signs, brochures and other advertisements, tourists were directed to the "New Entrance" instead of going to the main cave. The heirs of John Croghan who owned Mammoth Cave, brought suit against Morrison and his associates and the case shown in this book is the entire Court of Appeals case. Without a lot of legalese, this book not only gives one a much better picture of the cave, but of the individuals connected to Mammoth Cave. It includes lists of the guides at that time and how long they had worked at Mammoth Cave, testimonies from people who had been tricked into the wrong entrance, the CCC camp which was stationed there with testimony of how they had been duped. Also included is a time line of the life of George D. Morrison himself, an oil man who came to Edmonson County and decided to profit from Mammoth Cave. Photocopies of the entire suit. 146 pages including a full-name index If you would like to see the index, write me privately as usual.
