In Colonel John Holder: Boonesborough Defender & Kentucky Entrepeneur, author Harry G. Enoch chronicles the story of Colonel Holder, who defended one of pioneer Kentucky’s major settlements. Holder became commander of the fort after Daniel Boone left the area. Because of his business enterprises, Lower Howard’s Creek became one of the first industrial areas of Kentucky. Enoch’s meticulously documented book gives a thorough picture of this influential man’s life. Harry G. Enoch, retired biochemist, is a native of Mt. Sterling and now lives in Clark County, not far from old Fort Boonesborough. He chairs the Clark County-Winchester Heritage Commission and is editor of The Millstone, magazine of the Kentucky Old Mill Association.
