Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"In the Brooding Wild" by Ridgwell Cullum is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows two brothers, Ralph and Nicol Westley, who live in the rugged, isolated wilderness of the northern Rockies, embracing the life of trappers amidst the vast and often perilous landscape. As they confront the elements and the challenges of survival, their lives are further complicated by the haunting legend of the White Squaw, a mysterious figure entwined with the local Indigenous culture. The beginning of the book paints a vivid picture of the harsh realities of life in the wilderness, interspersed with elements of intrigue and adventure. As a fierce blizzard rages outside their dugout, the Westley brothers hear a human cry echoing through the storm, prompting them to venture out into the chaotic elements to rescue a stranded trader named Victor Gagnon. Following this encounter, the brothers become captivated by Gagnon's tale of the enigmatic White Squaw, igniting a spectrum of emotions and setting them on a path of unexpected exploration. The blend of survival, the allure of romance, and the richness of the wilderness create the initial tension that drives the story forward.
