The Court-Martial of Daniel Boone

Reading enjoyment.

A very good book to read. I just camped at the ft. boonesboro campground and drove around KY to big bone lick and the blue licks battlefield park. Hiked some. Stopped by Boone's Station as well. I guess history talks about Boone leaving the fort to get away from the crowd when he and his brother went and made a life at Boone's station but it makes me wonder if the way he was treated by many of the folks that he helped to begin a life in KY and protected them in the meantime, had anything to do with him wanting to get away from them all. Amazing how anyone could have accused him of being a traitor...which of any of those folks then as well as folks today could accuse him of such due to how he handled himself around the Shawnee tribes and the British. Who wouldn't try to save their own life as well as their men and do just about anything to deceive the enemy(at that time) as well as intermingle and spy/learn their ways. Hard to believe anyone could have treated Boone that way after all he did for them and went through in those hard times.

Have the combination of fascinating subject, excellently written (any Eckert book is a winner ) and well researched. Not a fan of the common cliche but, Dude, U could not put this book down.

This review is for second copy I bought as a gift. Dad loved ut

This was the last of Allen Eckert's ''Winning of America'' series. All are excellent works and should be required reading in our public schools. Along with ''The Frontiersmen'' this was one of my favorites.

Never knew about the court martial of Mr Dan’l Boone. If you want easy an informational reading, there is none better than Allen Eckert!!! Perhaps a bit more fictional than is other series— non the less super interesting reading!!

I bought this book for my husband's birthday. He enjoyed it tremendously.

Great book, arrived on time!
