"Snowdrift: A Story of the Land of the Strong Cold" by James B. Hendryx is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the harsh wilderness of Canada and follows the journey of Murdo MacFarlane, a fur trader, who dreams of seeking gold in the untamed North. As he discusses his ambitions and the dangers involved with those around him, he is depicted as a determined character
motivated by love for his family and the desire for a better life. The opening portion introduces us to the characters of Murdo MacFarlane and his wife, Margot, as they engage in a discussion about the potential for gold in the North.
