Goes beyond the folksong to tell the story of the American folk hero, Davy Crockett. A child of a poor pioneer family, he mastered the skills of hunter, scout and woodsman. Self-educated, he rose from the backwoods to the U.S. Congress. Following a losing bid for re-election, he left Washington for Texas where he faced defeat bravely defending the Alamo.
