Daniel Boone: A Pioneer's Life Revealed Through His Son's Interviews. The life of Daniel Boone remains shrouded in mystery, despite his fame as one of America's most famous frontiersmen. This book provides an engaging account of Boone's years in Kentucky and beyond, drawing on the most important source of information about him - interviews with his youngest son, Nathan, conducted by archivist Lyman Draper in 1851. Through these interviews, Nathan Boone separates fact from fiction to bring a crucial period in frontier history to life. The book offers a wealth of accurate information about Boone's experiences, including his capture by Indians, his defense of Fort Boonesboro, and his lengthy hunting expeditions.
