Book excerpt: This book documents the highly technical exploration and mapping of three long caves in the Bald Knob region of Edmonson County, Kentucky. The author, an accomplished member of the elite team of spelunkers that has been pursuing the explorations for over sixty years, has gathered records, logs, photographs, first-person accounts, and countless recollections to make a comprehensive record of the unique challenge of exploring and documenting one of the world's great cave systems, one which challenges even expert cavers and which will be seen by only a few for that reason. The primary caves described are James Cave, Coach Cave, and Jackpot Cave, all near and somewhat geologically contiguous with Mammoth Cave.
