by John Bakeless ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 8, 1939
A definitive work on the subject, for boys who want authentic facts and who are willing to have a few legands smashed. Boone's search for ""elbow room"" leads him into continual trouble over land grants,but his value as explorer, surveyor, frontier settler and Indian fighter makes him a figure of historical importance. It is good Americana, authentic pioneer material.
