Baptist preacher/nudist llsley Boone claimed descent from the American pioneer explorer Daniel Boone. Ilsley was at the forefront of nudist promulgation and organizing in the early twentieth century. In 1945 he was indicted for transporting the nudist magazine Sunshine & Health on "common freight carriers". Other Baptist ministers disavowed Boone's legitimacy as a bonafide Baptist clergyman. Interspersed with my research about Boone are incidents of nudism/public nudity on the Niagara River, Paris, France, and Allegan County, Michigan. American nude dancer Joan Warner was held by Paris Police in 1935 for the brief full nudity she exhibited at the end of her "slave dance" routine.
