1827 1ed Stipp Western Miscellany Daniel BOONE Wabash Indians Logan's Raid
Earliest printed records of the life of Daniel Boone!
G.W. Stipp's 'The Western Miscellany' is an extremely rare and notably obscure book on Western Americana. This book contains a variety of odd topics including:
· Battle of Blue Licks – the final battle of the American Revolution, fought nearly ten months after the war ended.
· Benjamin Logan retaliation on the Wabash Indians – Logan's Raid
· Daniel Boone battles with Native Americans, Indian captives, pioneering into the American west – notes on other Indian fighters
According to Howes,
"Contains first separate [book] printing of John Bradford's valuable 'Notes on Kentucky', originally appearing in a Kentucky newspaper, and reprinted by the Grabhorn Press in 1932."
