Vane of the Timberlands is a novel written by Harold Bindloss. The story is set in the Canadian wilderness and follows the life of Vane, a young man who inherits a timberland from his father. Vane is determined to make a success of the business, but he faces many challenges along the way. He must deal with unscrupulous competitors, dangerous wildlife, and harsh weather conditions. Vane also falls in love with a woman named Muriel, but their relationship is complicated by her father's disapproval. As Vane struggles to overcome these obstacles, he learns important lessons about perseverance, loyalty, and the power of love. The novel is a thrilling adventure that captures the beauty and danger of the Canadian wilderness, while also exploring themes of family, ambition, and romance.In some respects, Vane was glad to be back in the western city. At first, the ease and leisure at the Dene had their charm for him, but by degrees he came to chafe at them. The green English valley, hemmed in by its sheltering hills, was steeped in too profound a tranquillity; the stream of busy life passed it by with scarcely an entering ripple to break its drowsy calm. One found its atmosphere enervating, dulling to the faculties. In the new West, however, one was forcibly thrust into contact with a strenuous activity. Life was free and untrammeled there; it flowed with a fierce joyousness in natural channels, and one could feel the eager throb of it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
