The Silver Horde

"The Silver Horde" by Rex Beach is a gripping adventure story set in the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness where survival depends on ambition and inner strength. The story throws readers into the brutal world of Boyd Emerson and "Fingerless" Fraser as they fight their way through blizzards toward the remote village of Kalvik. After battling the elements, they are rescued by a half-breed and then face rejection from the locals, until Cherry Malotte, a tough trading post owner, offers them refuge. As Boyd finds renewed purpose with Cherry, the looming presence of cannery owner Willis Marsh signals a battle for dreams and survival against overwhelming adversity.
