Books published by publisher Harcout, Brace and World

This 762-page hardcover was published in 1954 by Harcourt. This is a one-volume edition. There is no dustcover, however, the deep red hardcover is very nice. There is minimal shelving wear, with very slight bumping along edges, with a slight fading on the spine. The gold lettering on the face and spine is very good. The pages appear clean and unmarked, with a previous owner's name plate on inside cover. The binding is solid and flexible. Overall, a very nice conditioned volume.

In this classic adventure by the Newberry Award honoree, first published in 1957, an Indian attack on a fort in the Tennessee wilderness makes young Chad Rabun realize that it is wrong to condemn one person for the misdeeds of another. WILLIAM O. STEELE (1917-1979) published thirty-nine books over his long career, many of them award winners. A native of Franklin, Tennessee, he set many of his historical adventures in the hills and valleys where he grew up.
