Danny
and the Boys
Being Some Legends of Hungry Hollow
Robert Traver |
|
Reaffirming
the wonder and glory of individual rights, Robert Traver's Hungry Hollow
tales recount the mischievous escapades of Danny and his "boys."
Setting themselves up in a logging shack near the iron-mining town of Chippewa
in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Danny and his cronies spend their time fishing
and hunting, story-telling, moonshining, and rampaging through the Chippewa
saloons and the local "hotel."
Traver has caught the genuine flavor of backwoods
life. Beyond the diverse schemes and pranks, he masterfully portrays a group
of men who live as they do because they choose to. Although written as fiction,
Danny and the Boys
is true Americana. |
