"A Voice in the Wilderness" by Grace Livingston Hill is a novel written in the early 20th century." The story follows a young woman named Margaret Earle as she embarks on her journey to become a schoolteacher in Arizona, where she encounters various challenges and dangers, including a harrowing night stranded in the desert and an unsettling meeting with a rough horseman. "The opening of the novel introduces Margaret as she disembarks
from a train, only to realize that she has mistakenly exited in the middle of the night at a desolate place far from civilization." Despite her initial excitement, she quickly becomes overwhelmed by fear and isolation, as she grapples with her surroundings of dark sagebrush and the haunting howls of coyotes. After a brief encounter with a drunken man who frightens her, she receives assistance from a kind young man, referred to as the Boy, who offers to escort her to safety. Their interaction hints at an emerging connection, setting the stage for the unfolding story of Margaret's adventures and the relationships she will cultivate in the wilderness.
