Old-Time Kentucky Farmsteading Ways and Means

"About the Editor Editor Lou DeLuca is retired from a long and varied career in public service. He worked as a city planner in New Haven, CT, taught at the Yale School of Art and Architecture and the University of Kentucky College of Design, worked as a reporter and feature writer for The Anderson News, served as Director of Kentucky Citizens for the Arts, Director the Kentucky Arts Council, and Secretary of the Education, Arts and Humanities Cabinet of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. In retirement he continues public service as a volunteer, most recently as a board member for the Berea Urban Farm. In mid-life he bought an abandoned 140-acre farm with a 1850s log homestead in Avenstoke, KY, and built a geodesic dome. It was during that construction that he met Herbert Lee Clark, who built the dome's large chimney using stones from the homestead's collapsed chimneys. Talking with Herbert Lee, Lou learned of his remarkable journals and agreed to prepare them for publication. Lou now lives in Berea, Kentucky, with his wife Victoria Faoro." Illustrator Joanne K. Guilfoil completed an art degree at the University of Kentucky and taught art there and at Eastern Kentucky University. She lived for many years in Rockcastle County, KY and drew this book's illustrations from life at Herbert Lee Clark's farmstead in Harrisonville, KY. Joanne now lives in the state of Delaware.
