The Gold Hunters _ A Story of Life and Adventure in the Hudson Bay Wilds by Curwood
"The Gold Hunters: A Story of Life and Adventure in the Hudson Bay Wilds" by James Oliver Curwood is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the thrilling adventures of Roderick Drew, Wabigoon, and the faithful Mukoki as they venture into the wilderness of Canada on a quest for gold, all while facing numerous challenges and dangers, including the ruthless Woongas, a tribe of outlaw Indians. At the start of the narrative, the scene is set in the vast solitude of the Canadian wilderness, where the protagonists are on a high-stakes pursuit of a Hudson Bay mail sled. They encounter various elements of nature and wildlife as they track the sled, seeking adventure and facing the harsh realities of the wild. Wabigoon, whose sister Minnetaki has been captured, and Mukoki, an experienced Indian warrior, exemplify bravery and loyalty throughout their desperate chase. The opening lays the groundwork for a gripping tale filled with excitement, tension, and the intrinsic bond of friendship, setting the stage for the challenges that lie ahead as they embark on their quest to rescue Minnetaki and find the fabled gold.

Summary
The deep hush of noon hovered over the vast solitude of Canadian forest. The moose and caribou had fed since early dawn, and were resting quietly in the warmth of the February sun; the lynx was curled away in his niche between the great rocks, waiting for the sun to sink farther into the north and west before resuming his marauding adventures; the fox was taking his midday slumber and the restless moose-birds were fluffing themselves lazily in the warm glow that was beginning to melt the snows of late winter.
It was that hour when the old hunter on the trail takes off his pack, silently gathers wood for a fire, eats his dinner and smokes his pipe, eyes and ears alert;?that hour when, if you speak above a whisper, he will say to you,
"Sh-h-h-h! Be quiet! You can't tell how near we are to game. Everything has had its morning feed and is lying low.
