About the author
Born in Liverpool in 1866, Harold Edward Bindloss became a prolific English novelist whose books were especially associated with western Canada. He also wrote fiction set in West Africa and England, and reference sources consistently note that his work was grounded in his own experience.
Before turning seriously to writing, he had worked in a range of demanding jobs, including life at sea, dock work, farming, and planting. That background gave his novels a direct, lived-in quality, with an emphasis on endurance, work, landscape, and the risks of life on the frontier.
Bindloss published widely and built a large readership for his adventure fiction in the early 20th century. He died in 1945, but his books remain of interest to readers who enjoy classic tales of travel, settlement, and survival.
