After several years of research and
preparationn, "A True Account of the 1911 Tar Party of Shady Bend,
Kansas" was published by Village Lines. Those of you familiar
with locations and details in Lincoln County will find the book
fascinating and those involved in Law Practice or Criminal Justice
will find historic value in the 1911 procedures. Other folks
will delight in a book that is a real "page turner". Straight
from accounts written in Kansas newspapers, the book tells Lincoln
County history that made national and international headlines, but
for many years was unknown to local residents. Shirley Buchanan, Executive Assistant at
Village Lines compiled the accounts after learning of her great
grandfather's involvement in the case. With the help of
Village Lines Owner, Marilyn Helmer, the book was
completed.
