Notă biografică
David Crockett (1786–1836) was an American folk hero, frontiersman, soldier, and politician. He is often referred to in popular culture as the "King of the Wild Frontier." Crockett grew up in East Tennessee, where he gained a reputation for hunting and storytelling. After a tumultuous career in politics, he infamously volunteered to fight in the Battle of the Alamo and was killed. Crockett became famous during his lifetime for larger-than-life exploits, and after his death he continued to be credited with acts of mythical proportion.
Recenzii
“Whether read as a political tract, as American humor, as autobiography, or as a chapter in American history, the work is . . . ‘a classic.'”
—Georgia Historical Quarterly
“Davy Crockett buffs, Tennessee bibliophiles, genealogists, folklorists, historians, and the general reader should find this carefully researched and authoritative edition, which extricates the man from the myth, a valuable addition to the frontier history, biography, and literature of Tennessee and America.”
—Robert E. Dalton, Tennessee Historical Quarterly.
“This book . . . will go a long way toward separating the myths that grew up around Crockett and the actual facts. This will enable the reader to acquire a greater appreciation for this long-neglected Tennessean.”
—Sarah McMahon, Historical Review and Antique Digest.
