BOOK: The hollow tree by Lunn

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Lunn, Janet._ The hollow tree._Viking, 2000 [0-670-88949-0]
It is 1777 and Phoebe is thrown into the Revolutionary War against
her will.  He father goes off to fight at Bunker Hill and is killed and
her boyfriend runs off to fight for the British.   When he suddenly
reappears and is hanged in the town square as a traitor, she ends
up taking a note for him to the British commander -- way up north.
This 208 page book deals mostly with her trek through the woods,
meeting up with colonists who think she is a traitor, and having to
survive as a loner.  I found it to be an interesting book with real-life
situations during a time of struggle for many people in our country.
