Three Great Classics from James Oliver Curwood


en Limba Engleză Paperback
Three classic Canadian "Northerns" in one volume with complete annotation, essays, and study guides. Isobel: A Romance of the Northern Trail William MacVeigh, a jilted Mountie, nurses a broken heart while maintaining law and order in the frozen north. Meanwhile, his Mountie cabin-mate is pining for his woman and quite literally dying of loneliness. For many long, dark months, they have had only each other for company, and one of them may not make it until the thaw. Suddenly, into their isolation intrude a beautiful woman hauling a dead husband in a casket, a depraved outlaw, a corrupt Mountie, and a beautiful little girl called "Little Mystery" who changes all their lives. In this 1913 "northern" by James Oliver Curwood, there's something for everyone: with evildoers aplenty, starvation, Eskimos in pursuit, and smallpox threatening them all, our fearless Mountie must save the woman, save an outlaw, save his partner, save a child, and somehow manage not to lose his own soul-or die trying. Hunted Woman A ripping, wild-west melodrama of lust, greed, gold, railroads, madmen, dynamite, prostitution--and the love of a good woman with a complicated past for a man convinced that all women are bad. Joanne is a beautiful woman who travels alone by rail on a mysterious, desperate mission. John Aldous is a novelist with a mistrust of women who is overcome by the compulsion to save her from one dangerous mishap after another and to aid her in her quest. Together they risk their own lives to find true love, gold, and the truth about her past. The Courage of Marge O'Doone A jilted husband with nothing left to lose; a wandering priest with a secret; a missing wife searching for her child; a beautiful young girl fighting for her virtue; two brutal mountain men determined to destroy everything good and pure to satisfy their greed; fur traders just trying to make a living; an assortment of Metis and Indians trying to adapt; an abused wolf-dog who has never known kindness; and a bodyguard she-bear trained to kill on command: all the ingredients for a good time on a Saturday night in the wilds of British Columbia."
