Blood and Treasure: Daniel Boone and the Fight for America's First Frontier By: Bob Drury and Tom Clavin This is an in-depth novel about the life of one of America's great forefathers, Daniel Boone. Largely biographical follows his life from near age 10 to age 76, even though he died at age 85. The book follows Daniel Boone's many adventures as a scout, frontiersman, hunter, explorer, and family man. Daniel Boone was captured several times by hostile Indians. They held him prisoner and absorbed him into their tribes. He would bide his time and escape back to his family on the frontier. It's a great biography, you find out more of who the man Daniel Boone was, rather than just the folk hero. I received a complimentary copy from the #StMartinsPress and #ShelfAwareness I was under no obligation to post a review.
