| Summary | "The Lure of Piper's Glen" by Theodore Goodridge Roberts is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of characters in the logging community along the Racket River, focusing particularly on the daring and skilled river logger, Mark Ducat, who is known as the "Cock of the River." The narrative explores themes of courage, rivalry, and the connection between nature and the rugged lifestyle of the characters. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Mark Ducat as he showcases his exceptional skills in handling logs on Racket River, earning him great respect among his peers. The narrative builds tension with the arrival of a stranger, Charlie Lavois, who challenges Mark's title and brings a bit of conflict into the cabin where the river crew resides. Meanwhile, James Todhunter, another central character, contemplates his move northward to the logging area, hoping to make a living and immerse himself in the wilds as he seeks adventure. The opening sets the stage for an exploration of the lives of these men, their struggles, and the relationships that intertwine as they navigate the challenges presented by both the river and their personal interactions.
