About the Book
The Eyes Of The Woods: A Story Of The Ancient Wilderness is set in the rugged wilderness of early America, where a group of young men must navigate the perils of frontier life. The group faces external dangers from native tribes, seeking revenge for past conflicts, and the internal challenge of surviving in the wilderness with dwindling resources. With their camaraderie and survival skills, they strive to endure the harsh realities of their environment. Tensions rise as they confront both the physical threats posed by nature and enemies, and the emotional strain of their bond as a group. The constant need for vigilance and strategy enhances the atmosphere of suspense and adventure, as the men prepare for an inevitable confrontation. Their struggle to protect themselves and each other, while managing their fears and responsibilities, reveals the complexity of life in the wilderness. As they face their enemies and internal conflicts, the journey becomes a test of endurance, loyalty, and courage.
Joseph A. Altsheler was born on April 29, 1862, in Three Springs, Hart County, Kentucky, to Joseph and Louise Altsheler. He was a newspaper reporter, editor, and author of popular juvenile historical fiction. He wrote fifty novels and at least fifty-three short stories. Seven of his novels were in sequence. He worked as an editor at the Louisville Courier-Journal in 1885. In 1892, he started to work for New York World and then as the editor of the World's tri-weekly magazine. He wrote children’s stories due to a lack of suitable stories. On May 30, 1880, Altsheler married Sarah Boles and had a son named Sidney. In 1914, during World War I Altsheler and his family were in Germany and they were forced to remain there. Altsheler died at the age of 57, on June 5, 1919, in New York. His wife, Sarah Boles died after 30 years. Their bodies are buried at the Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville, Kentucky. Although each of the thirty-two novels constitutes an independent story, Altsheler suggested reading in sequence for each series (that is, he numbered the volumes). You can read the remaining eighteen novels in any order.
