Description

|
|
|
The coauthor of The Adventurous Boy's Handbook and The Adventurous Girl's Handbook, and the editor of The Best Pirate Stories Ever Told, Stephen Brennan here presents the rich history—part folklore and part fact—of frontiersman and politician Davy Crockett, based on Crockett's own writings. From his days as a scout for Andrew Jackson during the war of 1812, his time as a congressman for the state of Tennessee, and his eventual death at the Alamo, Crockett led a life that was admired and well-told among his countrymen. Brennan also relates Crockett's accounts of monopolist and corporate misdeeds, environmental degradation, and foreign military adventures.
