Soltaire: A Romance of the Willey Slide and the White Mountains is a novel written by George Franklyn Willey and published in 1902. The story is set in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, USA, and revolves around the tragic events of the Willey Slide, a devastating landslide that occurred in 1826. The protagonist of the novel is Soltaire, a young woman who lives in a cabin near the Willey House. She falls in love with a young man named Arthur, who is visiting the area with his family. However, their happiness is short-lived as the Willey Slide strikes, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. Soltaire and Arthur are separated in the chaos, and their fate becomes uncertain. The novel follows Soltaire's journey as she tries to find Arthur and come to terms with the tragedy that has befallen her community. Along the way, she encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a mysterious hermit and a wealthy businessman who has his sights set on her.
