Today we’re joined by Keven McQueen to discuss his newest book, The Judge Mulligan Poisoning and Other Historic Lexington Crimes. Keven reads a selection from his book featuring the failed murder trial of Lafayette Shelby, grandson of Kentucky’s first governor Isaac Shelby. He  also highlights his research into the 1890 Louisville tornado, and a favorite Richmond, Kentucky ghost story from his book, Kentucky Book of the Dead. Keven’s books are available for checkout from the library, and for purchase from your favorite bookstore.
