''Daniel Boone the Pioneer of Kentucky'' is a biography written by John S. C. Abbott that details the life of Daniel Boone, a legendary frontiersman and explorer who played a significant role in the history of Kentucky. The book begins with Boone’s childhood in Pennsylvania and follows his journey as he moves westward, eventually settling in Kentucky. Abbott describes Boone’s experiences as a hunter, trapper, and guide, as well as his interactions with Native American tribes and his involvement in the American Revolution. The book also explores Boone’s family life, including his marriage to Rebecca Bryan and the challenges they faced as pioneers. Overall, ''Daniel Boone the Pioneer of Kentucky'' provides a comprehensive look at the life of one of America’s most iconic figures and the impact he had on the development of the American frontier.1876. 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.
