| | The Looking Glass - Vol. 8, No. 3 - Alice's Academy |
| | Kenneth Kidd's discussion of feral tales in the context of Allan W. | | | Eckert's novel illustrates the complexities of feral tales and situates the ideas of human, Other, and nature within them. | | | Eckert may have based his story on legend, as the book's ending implies, but in doing so he participates in the larger Anglo-American project of collecting, rewriting, and in some cases, entirely fabricating native folklore. |

| | Ohio Reading Road Trip Allan Eckert Biography |
| | Eckert's drive to write is astounding, perhaps because he remembers those twelve years when nothing was published. | | | His first book, The Great Auk, was published in 1963 and followed the life and death of the last of a species of wingless birds. | | | The book reflected not only his love of writing, but also his passion for wildlife and natural history. |

| | Tapping journals, letters, diaries and government memoranda from 1768 to 1799, and fleshing out his panoramic chronicle with reconstructed dialogue adapted from primary sources, historian-novelist Eckert has fashioned an epic narrative history of the struggle for dominance of the Ohio River Valley that makes compelling reading. | | | What comes in between is a classic tale of historic adventure and horror. | | | This is one terrific book, possibly his very best. |

| | An Unofficial Web Page for The Hab Theory, a novel by Allan W. Eckert |
| | While managing to incorporate hundreds of Brown's findings into the book (it is this massive body of supporting evidence that makes the novel worth reading), Eckert did nobody a service by adding a shmaltzy, poorly told love story to the reality-based tale of an aged engineer desperate to be heard by a sceptical scientific establishment. | | | This book becomes especially significant in light of discoveries made since Brown's death -- discoveries that remove the "irremovable" barriers which scientific dogma had put in his path while he lived. | | | After spending the following 40 years trying to disprove his own work -- and only finding more supporting evidence -- the hapless Brown tried to publish his findings as a warning to the world, without success. |

| | Set in 1969 during the Chicago Eight trials and the anti-war demonstrations that accompanied them, the novel mixes history and mystery in an entertaining tale that reflects the social attitudes of the times in detective fiction format. | | | Eckert presents a well-documented novel of historical Chicago, but the story he tells is not one to which the city can look with pride. | | | But Owen, who is not easily cast aside, follows her into the wilderness, and fate intervenes to bring the lovers together on her wedding journey. |
