UBC Press Honey in the Horn book Paperback 320 pages

Honey in the Horn chronicles the struggle to settle down
and eek out subsistence from a still-wild land. Clay Calvert, an
orphan, works as a hand on an Eastern-Oregon sheep ranch until he
stumbles into trouble and is forced to flee. Journeying through the
state, from the lush coastal forests, to the rolling Columbia river, to
the burnished wheat fields of the East, he encounters a cast of
characters as rich and diverse as the land, including a Tunne Indian
boy and a beautiful girl named Luce. Originally published in 1935,
Honey in the Horn is the only book by a native Oregon author to ever
receive a Pulitzer Prize for fiction.

H. L. Davis was a truly original Northwest voice. With
the encouragement of H. L. Mencken, he published five popular novels,
one book of poetry, and many short stories and essays in his career.
