About this listen

From humble beginnings in rural Tennessee to his heroic death defending the Alamo, frontiersman, adventurer, and politician David Davy Crockett embodies the spirit and ideals of the national character. Even during his lifetime, tales of the sharpshooting, skilled woodsman were - to his delight - told, retold, and elaborated on. As a US congressman, the former Creek War militiaman steadfastly opposed President Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act. As a soldier, he made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for an independent Texas. Nearly two centuries after his untimely demise, he remains a legendary figure in American lore. In this fictional account of Crockett's life, author Cameron Judd offers a nuanced portrait of the man behind the myth.

Very well narrated

Narrator Allan Robertson made this already interesting story even more enticing. A high point, for sure.

This narrator is FANTASTIC!

The story was fine. The subject interesting. The narrator is no mere narrator: he is a voice actor extraordinaire!

Great Ode to America's Hero

This was a great story and the presentation initially threw me off due to the narrator's syntax, but once I grasped his flow everything fell into place.
The book expresses David Crockett's personality, his wanderlust, his passion for greatness, as well as helping us understand that a man doesn't know what he has 'til he knows he'll never see it again.
Crockett is expressed as a flawed and ordinary man; an ordinary man overcoming extraordinary circumstances. I feel that it was his indomitable spirit rather than his charisma or bravery which led him to the annals of American frontier history.
I highly recommend this novel to anyone interested in learning about the life of this truly incredible--and painfully flawed--American hero.

Even better than his autobiography

I was very pleasantly surprised and pleased with this story. Cameron Judd truly captured the essence of David (Davy) Crockett in this novel. In fact he seems to have done this story much like Jeff and Michael Shaara have done for the Civil War.

educating or not

listen ability was fantastic. The narrator was awesome and I will look for more books by him. I didn't really know a whole bunch of about David Crockett and I'm not sure I really learned a lot about him except that he was a political man. Very easy to listen to what I read it again? Possibly but it would only be to hear the narrator's voice.
