Summary of Bob Drury and Tom Clavin's Blood and Treasure

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

#1 Boone had a love of the outdoors from a young age, and he was always exploring it. He would go on to become the premier pathfinder in North America, due in large part to his love of the woods.

#2 Boone was not cut out for a farmer’s life. He spent hours studying the habits of white-tailed deer, and when he saw a black bear in late summer or early autumn, he would track it to its masting grounds.

#3 The Boone family, led by patriarch George Boone, migrated from Philadelphia to the Welsh community of Gwynedd and eventually to large tracts of farmsteads in the shadow of today’s city of Reading. This area was eventually named Exeter in honor of George Boone’s British ancestry.

#4 Boone’s father, Squire, was a very industrious man who worked hard to provide for his family. He was also known to be quite harsh with his children, though he genuinely rued the beatings he gave them.
