The Parish of the Pines: The Story of Frank Higgins, the Lumberjacks' Sky Pilot is a novel written by Thomas Davis Whittles and first published in 1912. The book follows the life of Frank Higgins, a young man who becomes a sky pilot or a minister for the lumberjacks in the pine forests of northern Michigan in the late 1800s.As Frank travels from camp to camp, he faces many challenges, including harsh weather, dangerous working conditions, and the rough and rowdy lifestyle of the lumberjacks. However, he also finds friendship and love among the workers and is able to make a positive impact on their lives through his preaching and pastoral care.The novel explores themes of faith, redemption, and the power of community, as Frank works to bring hope and healing to the lumberjacks and their families. It also provides a vivid and detailed account of life in the logging camps during this era, including the backbreaking work, the camaraderie among the workers, and the natural beauty of the pine forests.Overall, The Parish of the Pines is a compelling and inspiring story of one man's journey to bring hope and faith to a group of rough and rugged lumberjacks in the wilderness of northern Michigan.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
