Daniel Boone

I choose Daniel Boone because he never gave up on his country!!! Daniel Boone didn't go to school, but he did have an education. His mother taught him to read and write, and his father taught him how to survive in the wilds, shoot a gun, and to be a nice gentlemen.

Daniel was born on November 2, 1734. Daniel Boone was a great pioneer explorer. He loved to wander through unknown territory. When he was a boy, he would take off and be gone on explorations for so long that his parents thought he was captured by Indians or visiting with friendly ones. Daniel became a great American explorer.

. He went on many journeys and explored many places. He trail blazed through the Kentucky wilderness, leading settlers through the Cumberland Gap. He cleared the Wilderness Road and established the settlement of Boone’s Borough. Thousands of people followed the path, moving west into America.

Everyone said Daniel could hear a twig break from a quarter of a mile away. They also said he could spot something out of order like an Indian in the bushes. Daniel was a very nice man to everyone as far as we know. Throughout his life, Daniel couldn't hold a grudge against anyone of any color.

He died September 26, 1820 at the age of 85. Daniel Boone was a great man who traveled the world.
