Davy CrockettBe always sure you are right then Go, ahead.
One of America's greatest heroes is Davy Crockett. Davy Crockett has been the subject, or perhaps more accurately, victim, of fictional portrayals even before his death. This site will attempt to reveal the 'real' man in a brief biographical sketch, and more importantly, in Crockett's own words. The values he advances are just as valid today as in the young America.
For extensive reading on Crockett's life, James Shackford's David Crockett: The Man and the Legend (University of Nebraska Press, 1956) is the ultimate resource.
