The Adventures of Daniel Boone: the Kentucky rifleman

Boone, Daniel, 1734-1820; Frontier and pioneer life -- Kentucky; Kentucky -- History -- To 1792
This account of my adventures will inform the reader of the most
remarkable events of this country. I now live in peace and safety,
enjoying the sweets of liberty, and the bounties of Providence, with my
once fellow-sufferers, in this delightful country, which I have seen
purchased with a vast expense of blood and treasure: delighting in the
prospect of its being, in a short time, one of the most opulent and
powerful states on the continent of North America; which, with the love
and gratitude of my countrymen, I esteem a sufficient reward for all my
toil and dangers.
DANIEL BOONE.
_Fayette County_, KENTUCKY.
