| Summary |
"The Hound From The North" by Ridgwell Cullum is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a vast, snow-covered landscape of the northern Rocky Mountains and centers around a weary, desperate traveler who finds himself lost in the freezing wilderness. Encountering treacherous conditions and struggling against the deadly cold, he ultimately meets a group of fur-clad Eskimos who save him from a grim fate. At the start of the book, we are introduced to a man on the brink of death from cold and exhaustion as he navigates the treacherous mountains. As he stumbles upon the Eskimos, who rescue him and bring him to safety in their humble dwelling, we see the stark contrast between the harsh wilderness and the faint flicker of hope provided by these unexpected companions. This opening portion sets a tone of survival, resilience, and the harsh realities of life in extreme weather, hinting at the adventures and challenges that are likely to unfold as the story progresses.
