A Narrative of the Life of David Crockett
Davy Crockett "always delighted to be in the very thickest of danger." In his own unbelievable style he describes his early life in Tennessee, his two marriages, his career as an Indian fighter, his bear hunting, and his electioneering. His reputation of a great bear hunter sent him to Congress, and he was voted in and out as the price of cotton (and his relations with the Jacksonians) rose and fell. In 1834, when this autobiography was published, Davy Crockett was already a folk hero with an ey
...e on the White House. But a year later he lost his seat in Congress and turned toward Texas. This brilliant narration is considered to be a classical example of American literature.
