The history of Hardin County is defined by such notable figures as John Hardin, the Revolutionary War colonel for whom the area is named, and Abraham Lincoln, who was born here in 1809. Today tourists and residents can visit historic sites that commemorate these individuals and those lesser-known, such as John Y. Hill, who built the stately home that is now the Brown-Pusey House, a museum and library. In Images of America: Hardin County, vintage photographs depict the past of the county seat, Elizabethtown, and also that of the smaller towns of Colesburg, Glendale, Hardin Springs, and White Mills. The communities of Stithton and Grahamton are pictured as they were before being replaced by the Fort Knox Bullion Depository and military post. Featuring images from the Brown-Pusey House and the community, this volume takes readers down Dixie Highway to appreciate the historic towns and natural beauty of Hardin County.
The heritage of the city of Elizabethtown exuberates through the buildings, the streets, and the community. Renovations of historic homes and businesses spark the interest of the modern traveler. The community has incorporated history into today's structures to provide a venue for entertainment.

The present work is the result of consultation and cooperation. Those engaged in its composition have had but one purpose, and that was to give to the people of Kentucky a social and political account of their state, based on contemporaneous history, as nearly as the accomplishment of such an undertaking were possible. It has not been the purpose of those who have labored in concert to follow any line of precedent. While omitting no important event in the history of the state, there has been a decided inclination to rather stress those events that have not hitherto engaged the attention of other writers and historians, than to indulge in a mere repetitionot that which is common knowledge. How far they have succeded in this purpose a critical public must determine.
