WITH
SKETCHES OF SIMON KENTON, LEWIS WETZEL, AND OTHER
LEADERS IN THE SETTLEMENT OF THE WEST.
"Of all men
Who passes for in life and death most lucky,
Of the great names which in our faces stare,
Is Daniel Boone, backwoodsman of Kentucky.
Crime came not near him—she is not the child
Of solitude. Health shrank not from him, for
Her home is in the rarely-trodden wild."

AUTHOR OF "THE LIFE OF COLONEL DAVID CROCKETT,"
"NED IN THE BLOCK-HOUSE," "NED IN THE WOODS," ETC.
