Dale Van Every (1896-1976) was a novelist and screenwriter who was nominated for an Academy Award for his 1937 adaptation of Captains Courageous. He later became a Universal Pictures executive and producer.
Rifleman and woodsman Adam Frane, wintering alone in the forests of Kentucky, rescues a white girl from the Cherokees who kidnapped her as a child.
"Van Every is among the best historical novel writers of our day and this is his best yet." Lewiston Sun-Journal
