Boone: A Biography
Cornell Store again and again located and acquired the books I needed, both old and new.
    I owe a great debt to my agent, Liz Darhansoff, for encouraging and making this project possible, to my outstanding editor Shannon Ravenel for guiding me through the long process of writing and editing, and Elisabeth Scharlatt and her staff at Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill for ensuring that this study of Boone would reach the reading public. I would like to thank Anne Winslow for her memorable work as a designer, and Brunson Hoole, managing editor of Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill, for an exemplary job of coordinating all the editorial efforts involved in the project. I am fortunate indeed to have been led through the editorial maze by Jude Grant.
    My son, Benjamin, generously provided digital copies of several illustrations and photographed the Squire and Sarah Boone tombstone in Mocksville, North Carolina. I owe much gratitude to my wife, Nancy, for her sharp editorial eye, advice, and patience throughout a long and challenging project.
