Excerpt from The Filson Club and Its Activities, 1884-1922: A History of the Filson Club, Including Lists of Filson Club Publications and Papers on Kentucky History Prepared for the Club, Also Names of Members The Club's activities in the field of publishing history have gone beyond the expectations of the charter members and many of the others who followed. Thirty-one books of original matter on Ken tucky history, written by members, have been issued as Filson Club Publications. Other original papers on local and state history, also written for the Club and read at its meetings, are still unpublished. Selections from these papers will be printed from time to time. The thirty-one Publications are monographs varying from seventy-five to 300 pages, except one, which is a book of 545 pages. The average is about 225 pages. They were printed for the purpose of making more easily available the material gathered by the members who did the research work and prepared the manuscripts. These Publications have been favorably reviewed by the press and carefully studied by historians and others interested in the early Middle West. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was among the first historians to visit the large private library of Colonel Durrett shortly after the Club was organized and Colonel Durrett became the custodian of its Archives. In the preface to The Winning of the West, published in 1889, Colonel Roosevelt says: _for original matter connected with Kentucky, I am greatly indebted to Colonel Reuben T. Durrett, of Louisville, the founder of The Filson Club, which has done much admirable work of late years. I am also under great obliga tion to Colonel John Mason Brown of Louisville, another member of The Filson Club. To his chapter entitled Kentucky Until the End of the Revolution Colonel Roosevelt adds in a footnote: I cannot forbear again commenting on the really admirable historic work now being done by Messrs. Brown, Durrett, Speed, and other members of The Louisville Filson Club. At that time (1888) only four Publi cations had been issued by the Club, and all of them are cited in The Winning of the West.
