Freckles by Gene Stratton-Porter
"Freckles" by Gene Stratton-Porter is a novel written in 1904. A young orphan with only one hand takes a job guarding valuable timber in Indiana's Limberlost Swamp. Initially terrified of the wilderness, Freckles gradually falls in love with nature's beauty while facing threats from timber thieves. His courage is tested when he encounters a mysterious girl he calls the Swamp Angel, and discovers deeper connections with his employer McLean, who offers him
something he's never had—family. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
