David Crockett(English, Paperback, Shackford James Atkins) is written by Shackford James Atkins and published by University of Nebraska Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0803292309 (ISBN 10) and 9780803292307 (ISBN 13).
Davy Crockett has been America's best-known folk hero for at least 160 years. This informed biography by James Atkins Shackford first appeared in 1956, at the height of the television-inspired Crockett craze. As Michael Lofaro notes in his introduction, "Shackford faced the monumental task of rescuing a nearly unknown David Crockett from the obscurity caused by the popularity of the earlier legendary Davys and deepened by Disney." He succeeded memorably, restoring David Crockett of Tennessee, a true pioneer and colorful figure even without romantic trappings.
