SUMMARY:In-Person Book Talk - George Graham Vest
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to offer a book talk and signing on July 19\, 2025\, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm\, Saturday\, July 19 at 2:00 pm with author\, editor\, and publisher\,  Stephen M. Vest. Stephen Vest will discuss his book “George Graham Vest”\, with a book signing immediately following the book talk. \nThe 2024 Lessons in History program is free to the public. Regular museum admission applies for entrance to the museum galleries. \nAbout the Book: Although the saying “Dog is man’s best friend\,” is well known\, the man who originally coined the phrase is less celebrated in modern times. However\, in the late 1800s\, George Graham Vest was a distinguished attorney and politician widely admired for his skills in oration and debate. George Graham Vest—The Life and Times of Dog’s Best Friend provides a detailed look at Vest\, who practiced law in central Missouri\, serving in the Missouri House of Representatives\, the Confederate Congress\, the Confederate Senate\, and later the U.S. Senate. He also helped establish Yellowstone National Park. Written by descendant Stephen M. Vest\, George Graham Vest is a fitting biography to one of America’s best statesmen\, long overdue. \n \nAbout the Author: Stephen M. Vest is the editor and publisher of Kentucky Monthly and the editor of SAR Magazine\, the national membership publication of the Sons of the American Revolution. He and his wife\, Kay\, live in Frankfort\, Kentucky\, where they raised their four grown children.
