Our Home in the Silver West: A Story of Struggle and Adventure Produced by Roger Frank, Juliet Sutherland and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Our Home in the Silver West: A Story of Struggle and Adventure" by Gordon Stables is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Murdoch M'Crimman, the young chief of the M'Crimman clan, as he grapples with the weight of his family's blood feud and the struggles of life in the Scottish Highlands before embarking on an adventure in the New World. The opening sets the stage for Murdoch's internal conflicts, familial responsibilities, and introduces key elements of his heritage and personal aspirations. At the start of the novel, Murdoch is deeply introspective, contemplating his role as a writer tasked with recounting the family's storied past, strained by a historical feud with the Raes of Strathtoul. The narrative unfolds in a richly described setting of Castle Coila, where his interactions with his aunt and the serene landscape hint at a life filled with beauty yet shadowed by ancestral conflicts. The opening also touches on the family's history, including the feud that has persisted through generations, and foreshadows Murdoch's eventual journey toward a new home in the West, suggesting a blend of adventure and self-discovery that lies ahead.
