生きるためのFILSON

＜P＞＜STRONG＞John Filson＜/STRONG＞ (c. 1753-1788) was an American author, historian of Kentucky, pioneer, surveyor and one of the founders of Cincinnati, Ohio. He wrote ＜STRONG＞The Discovery, Settlement and Present State of Kentucke＜/STRONG＞ (1784) during this period, and travelled to Wilmington, Delaware, to have it published in the summer of 1784. He also had a "Map of Kentucke" engraved and printed in Philadelphia. The edition, including both book and map, consisted of 1,500 copies and was priced at 1.50. The map was reprinted several times before 1793. Filson's plan for a second edition, to be endorsed by George Washington, fell through.＜/P＞＜P＞The book was almost immediately translated into French and re-published in Paris (1785) and somewhat later a German edition appeared (Leipzig, 1790). The appendix relating the adventures of ＜STRONG＞Daniel Boone＜/STRONG＞ was extremely popular, and was referenced by (among others) Lord Byron in Don Juan.＜/P＞＜P＞- Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.＜/P＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
