Synopsis "David Crockett: His Life and Adventures"
Renowned as a frontiersman, folk hero, congressman and Alamo defender, Davy Crockett was one of the most illustrious and heroic figures in American history. Crockett's biographers often say there were actually two Crocketts: David, the frontiersman and congressman martyred at the Alamo, and Davy, the larger-than-life folk hero whose exploits were chronicled in several books, a series of almanacs and on stage. In 1831 the play "The Lion of the West" opened in New York City. The play was a thinly disguised and highly colored account of Crockett's life that helped cement his folktale hero image in the public imagination. He was an extraordinary American hero whose stories dramatize American cultural values for a wide popular audience. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally a part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. The author John Stephens Cabot Abbott, a well-known pastor and historian, brings this biography of a colorful icon to life, closely founded on fact, separating the facts from the fiction, with a most engaging ability to paint pictures with words.
