It was on a cold winter morning long ago, that Robin Gore, a bold hunter of the backwoods of America, entered his parlour and sat him down to breakfast. Robin's parlour was also his dining-room, and his drawing-room, besides being his bedroom and his kitchen.

It was on a cold winter morning long ago, that Robin Gore, a bold hunter of the backwoods of America, entered his parlour and sat him down to breakfast. Robin's parlour was also his dining-room, and his drawing-room, besides being his bedroom and his kitchen. In fact, it was the only room in his wooden hut, except a small apartment, opening off it, which was a workshop and lumber-room. Robin's family consisted of himself, and his wife, and his son Roy, who was twelve years of age-and his daughter Nelly, who was eight, or thereabout. In addition to these, his household comprised a nephew, Walter and an Irishman, Larry O'Dowd. The former was tall, strong, fearless, and twenty. The latter was stout, short, powerful, and forty.

Seller's Description:
Very Good in Good jacket. Green cloth boards stamped in black (featuring the publisher's Star Series design). No date, published circa 1930's. Some edge fading around head and foot of spine. Short gift inscription on ffep. Dust jacket edge chipped, particularly at foot of spine and top edge of front panel; price clipped. DJ in archival sleeve. 175, plus [8] pp. ads. 7.5 x 5.25 inches. This edition of Silver Lake was published by Frederick Warne & Co. as part of their Star Series. The Star Series were only issued from Warne's UK office. Based on the listed books on the rear panel of the dust jacket, this was probably published around 1936. The story is set in the wintry northern woods of America. A young brother and sister, Roy and Nellie, experience adventures in the wilderness, with encounters with Native Indians being prominent in the telling. Robert Michael Ballantyne (1825-1894) was a prolific Scottish author of juvenile fiction. Silver Lake was originally published in 1867. An earlier novel of Ballantyne's, The Coral Island, served as an inspiration for the notable writings of his fellow Scotsmen: Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island and J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan.
