Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Hunt-Pack" by Samuel Alexander White is a novel written during the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the treacherous Chilkoot Pass during a gold rush, the story delves into themes of betrayal, survival, and the harsh realities of frontier life. It vividly portrays the struggles of travelers navigating the extremes of the North, tackling not just the physical dangers of the journey but also interpersonal conflicts and the moral dilemmas they face. The narrative centers around Tom Bassett, who confronts a pair of notorious characters, Jose Cantine and Blera Sark, in Happy Camp. Cantine's deceitful actions have left a man wronged, and Bassett takes a stand against him in a dramatic showdown at the Saxon Saloon. Ejected from the camp, Cantine and Blera must navigate the frigid wilderness, fighting against both the harsh elements and the societal judgment they face. Their tumultuous journey leads them to a cabin where they hope to find refuge but soon confronts the vengeful Eric Sark, Blera's wronged husband. The book culminates in a fierce clash between survival instincts and moral law, ultimately depicting a story of revenge, redemption, and the indomitable will to overcome adversity in a lawless land.
