Who Was Daniel Boone? by Sydelle Kramer is such a wonderfully detailed book on the life of this man. I had not idea just how rough he had it. I expected these "Who Was/Is..?" books to be only about 30 pages but they are all over 100 pages long just filled with info. I love history but some of this

history I had not heard before. Great job. I got this from the online library. It is meant for middle grades or teens but I enjoyed this book and I am 60! I didn't feel it was speaking down to me at all. Wonderful book and great sketches scattered throughout.
