Illustrated. American Pioneers and Patriots series. The name of Daniel Boone is a conspicuous one in the annals of our country. And yet there are but few who are familiar with the events of his wonderful career, or who have formed a correct estimate of the character of the man. Boone was the Cowper of the wilderness; a solitary man loving the silent companionship of the woods. He leads us across the Alleghenies to the fields of Kentucky, before any white man's foot had traversed those magnificent realms. No tale of romance could ever surpass his adventures with the Indians.
