The new and substantially revised 2nd edition of In the Footsteps of Daniel Boone tells the life story of America's pioneer hero by putting his life on the landscape, taking the readers to 100 places spread across 11 states from Pennsylvania to Missouri and from Michigan to Florida (yes, Florida!) where they can see markers, monuments, plaques, historic homes, replica forts, and statues that commemorate events of his life. The second edition is a solid arm-chair read illustrated with 150 photographic images captured at historical reenactments during the last 20 years, with another 160 images and all the location information found in a 60-page appendix with additional commentary. The narrative is the immersive, historical storytelling that non-fiction readers want. The appendix provides the information history buffs want to see the sites for themselves. The first edition went out of print when the publisher retired in 2017. This new and greatly enhanced second edition becomes available in time for the 250th anniversary of Boone Trace in 2025. Market hunter, wilderness scout, frontier guide, master woodsman, expert marksman, militia leader, surveyor, land speculator, judge, sheriff, coroner, elected legislator, merchant, tavern keeper, prisoner of war, Spanish syndic, son, brother, husband, father-Daniel Boone led one of the fullest and most eventful lives in American history. Showcasing 100 sites stretching across 11 states, In the Footsteps of Daniel Boone takes readers to the places where Boone lived, hunted, fought, and dreamed of the next frontier. You'll find the sites where two of Boone's sons were slain by warriors, where he rescued his kidnapped daughter from Shawnee captors, where his brother was killed by Shawnees who mistook him for Boone, where he tricked a British governor, and where he was court-martialed on charges of treason. In David, Kentucky, you'll visit the hollow where Daniel Boone saw his first buffalo. At Fort Boonesborough State Park, you'll learn how his courage and cunning defeated a Shawnee siege. From Cumberland Gap, you can follow the 1775 Boone Trace which helped usher in a quarter-million settlers into Kentucky along the later Wilderness Road. And in Pennsylvania and Missouri, you'll see the homes where he was born into and departed this world-a thousand miles, 86 years, and a legendary life apart.
