The Red Pirogue

By Theodore Goodridge Roberts

Author of “Musket House,” “Standing the Gaff,” etc.

Dick Sherwood's besetting sin had clouded his life and at last irrevocable tragedy drew very near. It is good to read of what these sturdy, North-woods folk did about it—Ben O'Dell, Uncle Jim McAllister, plucky Mrs. O'Dell and the others. By no means forgetting Sherwood's little daughter, Marion—little but oh, my! As always, Mr. Roberts has written a clean, virile tale of his own Northland.
