Trial By Fire: A Tale Of The Great Lakes is a novel written by Richard Matthews Hallet and published in 1916. The story is set in the Great Lakes region of North America and follows the adventures of a young man named Tom Tracy. Tom is a sailor who finds himself caught up in a dangerous situation when his ship catches fire and sinks in the middle of the lake. He is forced to swim to a nearby island, where he meets a group of Native Americans who take him in and help him survive. As Tom tries to find a way off the island and back to civilization, he becomes embroiled in a conflict between the Native Americans and a group of white settlers who are encroaching on their land. The novel explores themes of survival, friendship, and the clash of cultures as Tom navigates his way through this challenging and dangerous environment. With vivid descriptions of the natural beauty of the Great Lakes region and the struggles faced by those who live and work on the water, Trial By Fire is a thrilling adventure story that captures the spirit of the early 20th century. It is a timeless tale of courage and resilience in the face of adversity, and a testament to the enduring human spirit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
