Summary "Blazing Arrow: A Tale of the Frontier" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story likely delves into themes of adventure and survival on the American frontier, centering around two young characters, Larry Murphy and Wharton Edwards, who find themselves in precarious situations involving wildlife and confrontations with Native Americans. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Larry Murphy and Wharton Edwards as they embark on an adventurous pursuit of a bear in the Kentucky wilderness. The scene is set with Larry trying to outpace his friend Wharton to capture the bear, which leads to moments of mishaps and humorous exchanges. As Wharton continues the pursuit, a tense moment ensues when he attempts to leap across a ravine but ends up tumbling into the violent waters, prompting Larry to jump in to save him, illustrating their strong friendship. Meanwhile, encounters with bears and the threat of Native American tribes foreshadow the challenges the youths will face as they navigate the perils of frontier life.
