Description:

This unique biography of Davy Crockett uses personal recollections, letters, and newspaper articles to tell the fascinating story of his life. 



"I stood no chance to become great in any other way than by accident." 



With these words, Davy Crockett reflects on his extraordinary journey from growing up in the backwoods of Tennessee to becoming a congressperson in Washington, D.C. People often do not know the truth about the man made famous for the crucial role he played in the Battle of the Alamo. 



Kids will find out about Davy's well-known sense of humor and dedication to helping those around him in this exciting biography.



DESCRIPTION



When explorers Lewis and Clark set off on a mission ordered by President Thomas Jefferson, incredible hardships in an unknown wilderness became their destiny. Native Americans, wild animals, and the Rocky Mountains all had to be encountered before they reached their goal: the Pacific Ocean.
