Review
A remarkable book in multidirectional approach, Crockett is part literary study and part history. Not purporting to be a definitive biography, Hauck's unusual work succeeds as both an introductory biography and an evaluation of works by and about Crockett--both the factual and the fictional,treating history and legend ... evaluating even television and film portrayals by Fess Parker and John Wayne. A five-page `Crockett Chronology' is a helpful feature of the book.... This is a most suitable acquisition for academic libraries.Choice
