Flower Of The North is a novel written by James Oliver Curwood that follows the story of a young man named Philip Weyman, who embarks on a journey to the Canadian wilderness in search of adventure and fortune. Along the way, he meets a beautiful woman named Nepeese, who belongs to a tribe of indigenous people. Philip falls in love with her and decides to stay with her tribe, but their happiness is short-lived as they soon find themselves in the middle of a conflict between the indigenous people and a group of white settlers. The novel explores themes of love, adventure, and the clash of cultures in the untamed wilderness of Canada. With vivid descriptions of the natural landscape and thrilling action sequences, Flower Of The North is a classic adventure novel that is sure to captivate readers.The boy’s white teeth gleamed in a laugh as he waved his hand and leaped farther away. From Philip his eyes shifted in a quick, searching glance to the top of the cliff. In a flash Philip followed its direction. He understood the meaning of the look. From the cliff Jeanne and Pierre had seen his approach, and their meeting with the Indian boy had made it possible for them to intercept him in this manner.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
