This link has the publication of Daniel Boone's "Adventures" in 1784 served
to immortalize Boone the frontiersman as an American legend and a true folk
hero. Published by John Filson on Boone's 50th birthday, the narrative
describes in Boone's own words his exploits in the Kentucky wilderness from
May, 1769 to October of 1782. The Adventures of Col. Daniel Boone was
subsequently published in The American Magazine in 1787 and again in a book
by George Imlay in 1793. The latter publication is the source wherein we
present the complete text.
