The Lost Brothers Of The Alleghenies From Real Life: Sad But True (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781168641304)

""The Lost Brothers of the Alleghenies from Real Life: Sad But True"" by James A. Sell is a non-fiction book that tells the tragic story of two young brothers who become lost in the Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania in the late 1800s. The boys, aged 7 and 9, were out hunting with their father when they wandered off and became separated from him. Despite a massive search effort involving hundreds of volunteers, the boys were never found and their fate remained a mystery for over 50 years. Sell's book delves into the historical context of the search and the impact the tragedy had on the local community. He also explores the various theories and rumors that circulated about what might have happened to the boys, including speculation about wild animals, kidnappers, and even supernatural forces. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with descendants of the lost brothers, Sell paints a vivid picture of life in rural Pennsylvania in the late 19th century and the enduring legacy of this heartbreaking event. ""The Lost Brothers of the Alleghenies from Real Life: Sad But True"" is a poignant and thought-provoking read that will appeal to anyone interested in history, true crime, and the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
