Publisher's Synopsis
James Oliver Curwood's book Flower of the Night is filled with adventure, intrigue, and love. The author demonstrated the heights of both heroism and baseness as well as the avarice of people that portray lovely love tales of devotion and faith. Philip Whittemore is on an expedition in Flower of the North that takes him up the Churchill River in northern Canada to a place he thought he knew. A mysterious outpost known as Fort o' God, whose occupants and history are shrouded in mystery, is located among the rocks and hills, though, and he has been told that it is called Fort o' God. He learned about this location through Jeanne D'Arcambal and her guardian Pierre, but they withheld a lot of information from him, including their true identities, origins, and murky pasts. He had saved enough money by 1909 to take a trip to the Canadian Northwest, which served as the basis for several of his wild-west adventure tales. Because of the popularity of his works, Curwood was able to write more than thirty of them while spending several months each year in the Yukon and Alaska.
