In the centerpiece story, an eighteenth-century Eno Indian tells of the fiery fate of his adopted father, English explorer John Lawson. In the surrounding stories, the age-old conflicts between newcomer and old-timer play out as twenty-first century retirees, carnies, runaways, heartbroken women, and farmers stumble into new lives and new insights in Ambler County, North Carolina. \"Hudson's prose is pure as birdsong,\" says novelist Doris Betts. \"These fine stories of change and discovery are a field guide to the human species in transition.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marjorie Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1935708309\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781935708308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Press 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Hemingway Foundation\/PEN Award - Honorable Mention","brand":"Marjorie Hudson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44131808903423,"sku":"9781935708308","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_20c95f22-5625-4f2a-a790-951809a59eea.jpg?v=1687476522","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/accidental-birds-of-the-carolinas-marjorie-hudson-9781935708308","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
