The British are in the midst of a war. The French have obtained the local Indians as allies. And in order for England to wrench Quebec away from French rule, they must win these terrible battles. . . . Robert Moray was captured when the French took Fort Necessity, and he is now prisoner at the citadel. He must attempt to escape as well as save the lovely Mademoiselle Alixe Duvarny before the Seven Years' War reaches her home and destroys everything that she holds dear. * Gilbert Parker was a British author who made his fame by writing about Canada and its inhabitants. His most noted works are "The Right of Way" and "The Weavers," both of which were, in their day, among the top ten bestselling novels in America. "The Right of Way" was on the list in 1901 and 1902, while "The Weavers" was on the list in 1907 and 1908. "The Seats of the Mighty" was made into a film in 1914 in which John Barrymore starred.

"Pierre and His People" is the short-story collection that launched the remarkable career of Sir Gilbert Parker. Born in Ontario, Canada, Parker drew on his childhood memories for some of the characters he describes, and he writes in a style as crisp as the cold in the glacial Northwest. Pretty Pierre is the recurrent figure who links these eighteen stories of Indians, gold- and adventure-seekers and red-coated Mounties in the nineteenth century. Pierre is a young gambler called "pretty" for the red tinge on his cheeks, but Parker adds to the figure: "small and beautiful, silent and deadly." Stories range from the hard realities of "The Patrol of the Cypress Hills," to the ghostly horseman in "The Scarlet Hunter," to the tall-tale bluster of "Shon McGann's Toboggan Ride." (Shon slides down a glacier in a gold-miner's pan.) Thanks to the success of this 1892 collection, Parker became a novelist, a newspaperman in Australia, a traveler through the South Pacific, and a member of the English Parliament. Or as Pierre says, "The higher we go, the faster we live."

Sir Horatio Gilbert George Parker, 1st Baronet PC (1862- 1932), known as Gilbert Parker, Canadian novelist and British politician, was born at Camden East, Addington, Ontario. He was educated at Ottawa and at University of Trinity College at the University of Toronto. Parker started as a teacher at the Ontario School for the deaf and dumb (in Belleville, Ontario). From there he went on to lecture at Trinity College. In 1886 he went to Australia, and became for a while associate editor of the Sydney Morning Herald. He also traveled extensively in the Pacific, Europe, Asia, Egypt, the South Sea Islands and subsequently in northern Canada. In the early nineties he began to make a growing reputation in London as a writer of romantic fiction. The best of his novels are those in which he first took for his subject the history and life of the French Canadians; and his permanent literary reputation rests on the fine quality, descriptive and dramatic, of his Canadian stories. His works include: Mrs Falchion (1893), A Lover's Diary (1894), The Battle of the Strong (1898), The Lane That Had No Turning (1900), The Right of Way (1901), Cumner's Son (1904), The Weavers (1907), Northern Lights (1909), and The Judgment House (1913).
