Daniel Boone

In 1775, as war raged in the Thirteen Colonies, a brave hunter named Daniel Boone was fighting a different battle—one to open America’s untamed wilderness to settlers. While colonial militias faced British soldiers in New England, Boone blazed trails through Kentucky’s forests and across the Appalachian Mountains. This video episode—based on a PragerU Kids biographical book—tells the first chapter of America’s westward expansion through the life of legendary trailblazer Daniel Boone.
