By Robert Valentine Mathews

Book Overview

The Song of the Pines is a novel written by Robert Valentine Mathews and originally published in 1906. The book is set in the mountains of North Carolina and follows the story of a young man named David who is searching for his place in the world. David is a musician and has a deep connection to the natural world, particularly to the song of the pines that he hears in the woods. As David travels through the mountains, he meets a variety of characters, including a young woman named Mary who becomes his love interest, and a group of loggers who are destroying the forests. David is torn between his love for Mary and his desire to protect the natural beauty of the mountains. Throughout the book, Mathews explores themes of love, nature, and the conflict between progress and preservation. The Song of the Pines is a beautifully written novel that captures the beauty of the Appalachian Mountains and the struggles of those who call them home.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
