-- Daniel Boone and the fight for America's first frontier.2021., Adults, St. Martin's Press Call No: BIOG 976.9 Edition: First edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "It is the mid-eighteenth century, and in the 13 colonies founded by Great Britain, anxious colonists desperate to conquer and settle North Americaâs âFirst Frontierâ beyond the Appalachian Mountains commence a series of bloody battles. These violent conflicts are waged against the Native American tribes whose lands they covet, the French, and finally against the mother country itself in an American Revolution destined to reverberate around the world. This is the setting of Blood and Treasure, and the guide to this epic narrative is Americaâs first and arguably greatest pathfinder, Daniel Booneânot the coonskin cap-wearing caricature of popular culture but the flesh-and-blood frontiersman and Revolutionary War hero whose explorations into the forested frontier beyond the great mountains would become the stuff of legend. Now, thanks to painstaking research by two award-winning authors, the story of the brutal birth of the United States is told through the eyes of both the ordinary and larger-than-life men and women, white and red, who witnessed it."--book jacket.
