| Summary | "The Silent Places" by Stewart Edward White is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores the adventures of woodsmen and traders of the Hudson's Bay Company as they navigate the wilderness of Canada. The story is set in a richly described landscape filled with the challenges and beauty of the natural world, focusing on themes of survival, exploration, and the interactions between various cultures. At the start of the book, a group of men gathers by the riverbanks of Conjuror's House during a summer evening, sharing tales and laughter in a setting that emphasizes their camaraderie and connection to nature. The narrative introduces Sam Bolton and Dick Herron, two woodsmen tasked with locating a wayward Ojibway Indian named Jingoss, who owes a debt to the post. As they prepare for their journey, they are drawn into the complexities of their environment, struggling with both the wilderness and the human elements intertwined in their quest. Dick's impulsive nature and emerging affection for an Ojibway girl named May-may-gwán provide initial tension, hinting at future complications in their travels through the silent, vast landscapes of the North.
