In his riveting first novel, If I Were an Eagle, David Hale takes us on a journey through the mountains of Tennessee. In Southern Appalachia, it is 1948, and the good folk of the rural communities, were either piously unyielding in their adherence to what they understood about the teachings of the Good Book, or they were too hypocritical and haughty to let on that they'd ever been anything but perfect. Hale spins a tale of woe, for not since the Perils of Pauline has so much misfortune befallen a young damsel, in so short a time. Many young women in the rural south were betrayed as much by their own carnal awakening as by the young studs and dirty old men who seduced and abused them. David Hale skillfully weaves the details of a existence in this story with a foreshadowing of events to come that leaves the reader anxiously anticipating what might happen next, And that makes for a good read every time.*Book Review by Jacquelyn Brown Community Services Manager for the Knoxville News-Sentinel, where she formerly served as reporter and columnist - August 2001
