Trailin'! by Max Brand
QR code
"Trailin'!" by Max Brand is a novel set in the post-World War I era, likely written in the late 1910s. The story appears to focus on themes of identity, adventure, and the contrasting lifestyles between the East and West of America, as it follows Anthony Woodbury—a young man from New York City—who seeks excitement and meaning beyond the confines of his privileged background. The opening of "Trailin'!" introduces Anthony at a Wild
West show in Madison Square Garden, where he is unimpressed by the excitement surrounding him. Despite the thrill of the performance, he feels compelled to engage further when a confident and brash man named Werther challenges the horse riders to ride a wild stallion, offering a hefty sum for the attempt. Anthony is drawn to the challenge, indicating a desire to connect with the rugged, adventurous spirit of the West, different from his sheltered life. In this initial setup, the stage is set for Anthony's transformation as he grapples with his identity and the expectations placed upon him by his affluent upbringing while seeking a new path.
