Boone a Biography by Robert Morgan is a detailed and rich perspective on an American icon. The author reveals the complex character of a frontiersman whose heroic life was more fascinating than the myths surrounding him. Born in 1734, Boone led hundreds of settlers west into Virginia and North Carolina, over the Cumberland Gap into Kentucky and the Ohio Valley. The book also reminds readers that Boone was more than a pioneer. He also fought in the French and Indian War and the American Revolution. He served in the Virginia legislature and was a Freemason. His life in the wilderness inspired writers such as Wordsworth, Byron, Whitman and more.
