The Discovery, Settlement and Present State of Kentucke

The title page of John Filson's The Discovery, Settlement and Present State of Kentucke (1784) notes that an appendix to the book contains "The Adventures of Col. Daniel Boon [sic], one of the first Settlers"—the author's romanticized version of Boone's life.
