Daniel Boone is a 1936 American historical film directed by David Howard and starring George O'Brien, Heather Angel and John Carradine.

Synopsis

In 1775, Daniel Boone leads thirty colonial families to Kentucky where they face two threats: Native American raiders led by renegade white Simon Girty, who opposes the colony; and the schemes of effete Stephen Marlowe to seize title to the new lands. Perils, battles, escapes, and a love interest round out the film.
