A salt lick is a place that has salt where animals come to lick. Interesting. Recently, the History channel finally decided to make a film/documentary on actual history about Frontiersman. It’s well-made and provides a lot of the information that’s found here much more in-depth about folks like Boone.

I grabbed about 30ish books from school and this one, I hope, is for K-3rd graders.

What am I missing? "Someone who made a difference"?
