Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Elam Storm, the Wolfer; Or, The Lost Nugget" by Harry Castlemon is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the character Elam Storm, a skilled wolf hunter with a mysterious past, and his quest for a lost nugget of gold that is tied to his missing father. Set against the rugged backdrop of the American West, the narrative explores themes of adventure, survival, and the pursuit of lost fortunes. At the start of the novel, the action takes place within a snowy cabin where characters Uncle Ezra, Ben Hastings, and Carlos Burton gather as a blizzard rages outside. Uncle Ezra shares the lore of Elam Storm and recounts the history behind a rumored treasure from a lost army paymaster train, which sparks the intrigue of the boys. As they settle in for the night, the conversation reveals Elam's background, his enigmatic nature, and his relentless pursuit of the nugget, setting the stage for the unfolding adventure rooted in Western folklore and the persistent search for glory amidst the elements.
