Download or read book The Frontiersmen written by Allen W. Eckert and published by Jesse Stuart Foundation. This book was released on 2011 with total page 1108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The frontiersmen were a remarkable breed of men. They were often rough and illiterate, sometimes brutal and vicious, often seeking an escape in the wilderness of mid-America from crimes committed back east. In the beautiful but deadly country which would one day come to be known as West Virginia, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, more often than not they left their bones to bleach beside forest paths or on the banks of the Ohio River, victims of Indians who claimed the vast virgin territory and strove to turn back the growing tide of whites. These frontiersmen are the subjects of Allan W. Eckert's dramatic history. Against the background of such names as George Rogers Clark, Daniel Boone, Arthur St. Clair, Anthony Wayne, Simon Girty and William Henry Harrison, Eckert has recreated the life of one of America's most outstanding heroes, Simon Kenton. Kenton's role in opening the Northwest Territory to settlement more than rivaled that of his friend Daniel Boone. By his eighteenth birthday, Kenton had already won frontier renown as woodsman, fighter and scout. His incredible physical strength and endurance, his great dignity and innate kindness made him the ideal prototype of the frontier hero. Yet there is another story to The Frontiersmen. It is equally the story of one of history's greatest leaders, whose misfortune was to be born to a doomed cause and a dying race. Tecumseh, the brilliant Shawnee chief, welded together by the sheer force of his intellect and charisma an incredible Indian confederacy that came desperately close to breaking the thrust of the white man's westward expansion. Like Kenton, Tecumseh was the paragon of his people's virtues, and the story of his life, in Allan Eckert's hands, reveals most profoundly the grandeur and the tragedy of the American Indian. No less importantly, The Frontiersmen is the story of wilderness America itself, its penetration and settlement, and it is Eckert's particular grace to be able to evoke life and meaning from the raw facts of this story. In The Frontiersmen not only do we care about our long-forgotten fathers, we live again with them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Simon Kenton On reaching Frankfort, the old man was without a single acquaintance to whom he could apply, and was himself unable to take the first step toward the accomplishment of his business. In this desolate condition he wandered for hours through the streets, looking wistfully for some familiar face among the numbers that hurried by, or stopped to wonder at the queer-looking old fellow who seemed to be so much out of place. At length he was recognized by General Fletch er, by whose care he was at once furnished with a decent suit of clothes and a comfortable lodg ing. As soon as it was known that Simon Kenton, the second great adventurer of the West, was in town, the little capital was thrown into a high state of excitement. He was' taken to the Legislative Hall and installed in the Speaker's chair, where the high officers of the, State, with its rank, and wealth, and beauty, crowded around to gain an introduction, and press his hard hands. Speeches, of course, were not wanting; and indeed nothing was omitted that could flatter the self-complacency of the actors. And then, after all this empty parade, the Gen eral Assembly of the State of Kentucky proceed ed gravely to Resolve - what? Why, that they would not take away his few hundred acres of almost worthless mountain-land. That is' all. They voted nothing further. And yet Kenton always referred to this as the proudest day of his life - the most striking illustration that could possibly be given of his childlike simplicity. But private charity was more active on this oc casion than public gratitude, and enabled him to return home in respectable clothing and on a good horse.
