Although historians have assumed previously that early Kentucky was a one-party area, this title suggests that there were three active parties - the partisan, court, and country. From the land-grant maze following the 1779 migration, through a brief Tory movement, the author traces the parties' development and their struggle for power in the world of postrevolutionary Kentucky politics.
