"The Wolf Queen; or, The Giant Hermit of the Scioto" by T. C. Harbaugh is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds during the early 1800s and centers around the adventures of Mayne Fairfax, a young hunter on a mission to rescue Eudora Morriston, who has been captured by the infamous Jim Girty. The narrative introduces readers to the enigmatic figure of the Wolf-Queen, a fearsome woman who commands a pack of wolves and embodies both beauty and madness. The beginning of the novel sets the stage dramatically as Mayne Fairfax paddles down the Scioto River, reflecting on the dangers of his quest while contemplating the legendary Wolf-Queen. He soon encounters this fearsome figure, described as a tall woman dressed in wild garments, who attacks him with a bow. Just as he is seemingly left for dead, he is saved by a backwoodsman named Bill Hewitt, who takes him to his cave for recovery. The initial chapters build tension through the introduction of various characters and establish a sense of impending conflict, highlighting themes of bravery, madness, and the collision of civilization with the wild as Fairfax prepares to confront Jim Girty and rescue Eudora.
