Описание книги

Bertrand William Sinclair was a Canadian novelist known for a series of westerns set in the United States, and also for a series of novels set in his home province of British Columbia. He had disapproved of previous westerns as he felt the action portrayed was far different that the lives cowboys actually led. When he moved to Vancouver, the settings of his works changed. He tended to write about social causes, and worked in the timber industry prior to writing Big Timber. Later, before writing about the fishing industry, he worked as a commercial fisherman. He was also formerly married to author Bertha M. Brown, better known under her pen name, B. M. Bower. Contents: Raw Gold The Land of Frozen Suns North of Fifty-Three Troubled Waters Big Timber Burned Bridges Poor Man's Rock The Hidden Places
