Daniel Boone

It is extremely difficult to find sources about Boone's court martial. What few materials were written are hard-to-get and frequently out-of-print.  Among those available are the following titles:

• Eckert, Allan W. - The Court-Martial of Daniel Boone. New York: Bantam, 1973. Account of the trial with fictional dialogue.

• Young, Chester Raymond (editor) - Westward into Kentucky: The Narrative of Daniel Trabue. Lexington: University Press of Kentucky, 1981.

• Faragher, John Mack - Daniel Boone. New York: Henry Holt, 1992. This book is still in print and is considered the definitive modern biography. It does discuss the court martial (between pages 199-202).

• Aron, Stephen - How the West was Lost: The Transformation of Kentucky from Daniel Boone to Henry Clay. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins, 1996.

• Documents at the Cincinnati Historical Society.
