Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Hawtrey's Deputy" by Harold Bindloss is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the Canadian prairie during a harsh winter, this story revolves around the lives of young settlers as they navigate love, ambition, and personal challenges in their quest for a better future. The primary focus is on Gregory Hawtrey, a newcomer struggling to establish himself, and Sally Creighton, a capable and determined girl who is unafraid to take charge in a male-dominated world. The beginning of the novel introduces readers to a vibrant dance taking place in a barn within the small settlement of Lander's, where frost covers the landscape. We meet Gregory Hawtrey, who exudes charm but struggles with practical efficiency on the homestead, and Sally Creighton, who is depicted as strong-willed and ambitious. As they navigate their conversation about farming and personal aspirations, the dynamic between them hints at a developing romantic tension. The opening sets up a captivating exploration of life on the Canadian frontier, where characters must grapple with the harshness of nature alongside their interpersonal relationships.
