About this book
At a Hudson's Bay Company post beside the Moose River, two woodsmen receive an unusual assignment: find Jingoss, an Ojibway trader who has failed to repay an advance in pelts. The older Sam Bolton and the younger Dick Herron bring contrasting temperaments to the task. Their summons at Conjuror's House sets this northern adventure among river routes, trading posts and the demands of life in the forest.
Stewart Edward White gives practical woodland skills room on the page. During a period of weakness, Dick relies on May-may-gwán's help and begins making snowshoes from tamarack and caribou hide. His pleasure in training a dog sits beside the strain in his dealings with the girl.
