What was Daniel Boone known for?

Daniel Boone hunted in Kentucky and figured out the best places to put farms villages and cities. He encouraged people to move to Kentucky and built the road through the Southern Appalachian Mountains called Wilderness Road. It allowed people to cross the mountains and move to farms and houses in Kentucky and Tennessee. It opened up that part of the United States to settlement by Pioneers. It was the only way south of the southern border of Pennsylvania and the Port of Mobile to cross the Appalachian Mountains. Abraham Lincoln's father used that road when he went from Indiana to Asheville, North Carolina to help build the hotel that Thomas Wolf described in his novel, You Can't Go Home Again. He did a few other things. He spoke out for liberty against the tyranny of England when he served in the Legislatures of North Carolina and Virginia. He fought in the Revolutionary War and provided much of the ammunition used in the great American victory in the Battle of Kings Mountain. He overextended himself in Kentucky and went bankrupt. He fled to St. Louis, which was under Spanish rule. The Spanish Governor gave him a large land grant in Missouri where he lived the rest of his life.
