- Summary:
- At the age of seventeen Florence Monroe leaves her father's house to live with her young husband in the isolated spot in Alaska where he built his salmon saltery. There she encounters conflict with her husband because she stubbornly clings to the Victorian manners and customs so unsuited to wilderness living. Adventure results when Florence pits herself against the wilderness to prove that she is right.
