Summary "The Valley of Gold: A Tale of the Saskatchewan" by David Howarth is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book seems to center around themes of rivalry, competition, and community life in a prairie setting. The main character, Ned Pullar, is depicted as a strong and determined figure, about to engage in a dramatic contest with his rival Rob McClure that will impact both their lives and the surrounding community. At the start of the novel, the setting is rife with tension as Ned Pullar and Rob McClure's ongoing competition escalates. The narrative begins with a confrontation in a local pool-room, where Pullar finds himself ambushed by McClure's gang. Rather than submitting to violence, Pullar maintains his composure and cleverly defuses the situation, revealing his character's strength and wit. Meanwhile, the plot hints at a deeper connection between Ned and Mary McClure, Rob's daughter, establishing a personal conflict that adds emotional stakes to the brewing rivalry. Through vivid descriptions of the harsh landscape and the intense lives of the characters, Howarth immerses readers in the struggles and dynamics of prairie life as the threshing season unfolds.
