| Summary | "Masters of the Wheat-Lands" by Harold Bindloss is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story takes place in a prairie settlement in Western Canada, focusing on the lives of the residents as they struggle to adapt to the harsh realities of farming in a new land. The main characters include Gregory Hawtrey, an optimistic yet somewhat impractical newcomer, and Sally Creighton, a capable and determined local girl whose ambitions and practical outlook contrast with Hawtrey's casual demeanor. The opening of the book sets the stage in Lander’s, a small settlement where a community gathers in a barn for a lively dance amid a cold winter night. While individuals enjoy the music and festivities, the practicality of their lives is woven throughout the narrative. We are introduced to various characters, including Hawtrey and Sally, who reveal their personalities and intentions through conversations about farming challenges and aspirations. The characters are vividly portrayed against the backdrop of their challenging environment, hinting at relationships and potential romantic undertones as Sally takes charge in moments of crisis, showcasing her strength and resolve in a land requiring both physical and emotional resilience.
