O knihe

Norman Keeler is a young man exiled from his home by the necessities of World War 1. He then is unjustly accused of a heinous crime, shot by the police, jailed, then finally exonerated he flees, assumes an alias, and lives in the United States as a cowboy. He marries and adopts a son.

He is betrayed by his wife and left with the boy to raise.
He wanders throughout the depression years and takes another woman, though he cannot marry her. They have a child, a daughter, and move into a cabin on the Fraser River north of Prince George, B.C.

They live by hunting, foraging, growing a garden, and what little money he can earn working odd jobs down the valley or prospecting for gold in the river.

Their daughter tells the rest of the story of hardship, danger and survival as another child is born to them, a son.

They are so far from roads and transportation that they must carry their supplies on their backs or on dogsleds.

They fight the intense cold, deep snow, flooding rivers and wild animals as long as his strength lasts.
