The Hawks of Hawk Hollow V1 is a book written by Robert Montgomery Bird. It is a historical fiction novel that is set in the early 1700s in Pennsylvania. The story revolves around a family of Quakers who are living in the wilderness of Hawk Hollow. The family consists of the father, mother, and their two children, a son and a daughter.The father, John, is a skilled hunter and trapper who provides for his family by selling furs. The mother, Mary, is a devout Quaker who tries to instill her beliefs in her children. The son, Edward, is a restless teenager who dreams of adventure and is fascinated by the Native Americans who live nearby. The daughter, Alice, is a shy and reserved girl who struggles to find her place in the world.The plot of the book follows the family as they navigate the dangers of living in the wilderness. They must contend with hostile Native Americans, wild animals, and harsh weather. Along the way, they meet a cast of characters, including a French trader, a group of settlers, and a mysterious stranger who may not be what he seems.The Hawks of Hawk Hollow V1 is a tale of survival, adventure, and family. It is a well-researched and engaging story that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and adventure novels.Astounded at such an unexpected mode of salutation, the painter could do little more than express his alarm and confusion, by echoing the word, ''Surrender?'' when Elsie interfered in his behalf, crying out, ''For Heaven’s sake, Captain Loring! what are you doing? Do the young gentleman no harm!''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
