Excerpt from Conquering the Wilderness, or New Pictorial History of the Life and Times of the Pioneer Heroes and Heroines of America: A Full Account of the Romantic Deeds, Lofty Achievements, and Marvelous Adventures of Boone, Kenton, Clarke, Logan
The times which produced these heroes and heroines mark a period in American history of absorbing interest alike to old and young. It is proper that it should be so. These hardy pioneers coupled virtue with courage, humanity and love of country with the stern duties of frontier life and battle, and the example of their lives not only interests but strengthens our faith and admiration in human courage and unselfish purpose.
