| Summary | "Over the Rocky Mountains: Wandering Will in the Land of the Redskin" by R.M. Ballantyne is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The book centers on the adventures of William Osten, known as Wandering Will, as he returns to England after a long absence and embarks on a journey to California during the Gold Rush, motivated by his father's legacy. The story explores themes of exploration, friendship, and the challenges of life as a miner, along with Will's desire to reunite with a young lady he met in earlier adventures. At the start of the novel, Will Osten arrives back in England to find his mother grieving the loss of his father. In their reunion, the topic of Will's inheritance in California is revealed, prompting him to gather friends and set off on a journey to reclaim his father's estate amidst the tumult of the Gold Rush era. Along with his companions, Larry and Bunco, Will prepares for the harsh experiences that await them across the rugged Rocky Mountains, while also dealing with personal entanglements, including feelings for a young woman from his past. The opening sets the stage for a mix of adventure and camaraderie, promising readers an engaging tale of resilience in wild and unfamiliar territories. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
