''Vane of the Timberlands'' is a novel written by Harold Bindloss. The story is set in the Canadian wilderness, where a young man named Vane returns to his family’s logging business after being away for several years. Vane is determined to make a success of the business, but he soon finds himself facing many obstacles, including hostile competitors and dangerous natural elements. Along the way, Vane also becomes involved with a local woman named Pauline, who is fiercely independent and has her own agenda. As Vane struggles to keep the business afloat and navigate his complicated relationship with Pauline, he must also confront his own personal demons and past mistakes. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and the harsh realities of life in the rugged Canadian wilderness.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.
