  1. Most of Curwood’s stories were adventure tales set in the Canadian North, where the author spent much of his time. During the 1920s his books were among the most popular in North America, and many were made into movies. The River’s End was the first book to sell more than 100,000 copies in its first edition. The book begins: Before the railroad’s thin lines of steel bit their way up through the wilderness, Athabasca Landing was the picturesque threshold over which one must step who would enter into the mystery and adventure of the great white North. It is still Iskwatam-the door which opens to the lower reaches of the Athabasca, the Slave, and the Mackenzie. It is somewhat difficult to find on the map, yet it is there, because history is written in more than a hundred and forty years of romance and tragedy and adventure in the lives of men, and it not easily forgotten.
