Book Description
Excerpt from Boys' Book of Frontier Fighters These are stories Of bravery and Of pluck amidst great Odds. In many of the stories victory was won by the aid of powder, ball and steel, used manfully. In others it was won by sheer nerve and wit alone - for a good fighter fights with his heart and head as fully as with his hands. Americans have always been great fighters, when called upon to fight in self-defense. They never quit until they are killed or triumphant; and although many may be killed, those they leave press forward again. In France the Americans never gave up an inch. We Americans of to-day, looking back, may be proud not only of the part played by our blood in the World War, but likewise Of the part it played in the days when, rifle in hand, we were hewing the peace trail in our own country.
