Description: The story of Sylvia Fortier, daughter of Pete Fortier, woodsman and ranger on Mount Katahdin, Sylvia, whose mother was town-bred and hates the woodland, has Indian blood through her father. She disappears on the mountain and returns after “marriage” to a stranger. She bears a child, even more wild and turbulent than Sylvia, and nature seems to threaten the whole Fortier family. Eventually it is shown that Sylvia's mate was a three-fold spirit of the mountain.HAL BORLAND. June 27, 1954 NY Times
