About the author
Daniel Carter Beard
1850–1941
An illustrator, outdoorsman, and early champion of youth scouting, he helped turn practical woodcraft and adventure into books that inspired generations of young readers. Best known as “Uncle Dan,” he brought a lively, hands-on spirit to both American children's literature and the founding of the Boy Scouts of America.
