About This Book

A young worker takes employment in remote lumber camps and learns the practical skills of logging, camp layout, and river drives while earning respect through encounters with bullies and by taming a wild animal. The plot follows his involvement in daily operations, the management of camps and rollways, and tensions stirred by labor agitation and suspected sabotage, leading to tracking efforts and the unmasking of a culprit. Alongside seasoned bosses and fellow hands he develops alliances, sharpens trailcraft, and negotiates rough camp justice. The narrative combines outdoor detail, action, and a steady coming-of-age thread.
