Vane Of The Timberlands is a novel written by the British author Harold Bindloss. The book is set in the early 1900s in the Canadian wilderness and follows the story of a man named Vane, who is a skilled lumberjack and hunter. Vane is hired by a wealthy businessman named Ormesby to work on his timberland property, but soon finds himself caught up in a dangerous feud between Ormesby and a rival lumber company. As Vane becomes more involved in the conflict, he must navigate treacherous terrain and confront dangerous enemies in order to protect the people and land he has come to love. Along the way, he also finds himself drawn to Ormesby's beautiful daughter, Muriel, and must decide whether to pursue a relationship with her despite the risks. With vivid descriptions of the rugged Canadian landscape and thrilling action sequences, Vane Of The Timberlands is a classic adventure story that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and wilderness tales.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.
