Publisher's Synopsis
James Oliver "Jim" Curwood (1878-1927) was an American action-adventure writer and conservationist. His books ranked among Publisher's Weekly top-ten best sellers in the United States in the early 1920s. The Flaming Forest follows the adventures of a Canadian Mountie "on the trail of Black Roger, the merciless murderer who menaced the trapping country." Instead of finding his man, he is "outwitted and captured by a mere girl" and finds himself a prisoner of St. Pierre "last of the great, all-powerful traders who bow to no authority."
