Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Southern Hero Tales From comparatively old parts of the country, as he counted age, Boone led victorious parties in search of new homes into a land that indeed flowed with milk and honey. No man could do so many successful things for the people he loved and served who did not have back of him good parents and in his heart and mind an ambition for the higher things of life that filled his soul full of an endless longing to be of great service to the teeming world of humanity. Boone´s father and mother were both Quakers, the father having come direct from England to join Penn´s colony and become free from the persecution given followers of that sect in England. His father is described as "a man of rather small stature, fair complexion, red hair, and gray eyes;" while his mother was "a woman something over the common size, strong and active, with black hair and eyes." Daniel was the sixth child born to Squire and Sarah (Morgan) Boone, resulting from the marriage in the Quaker meetinghouse by the Quaker ceremony on July 23, 1720 -lacking but a day of being exactly one month after John Wesley entered Oxford College.
