Description Campbell's Kingdom is a story of Western Canada as it is today, a story of the great oil boom and of the grim, wind-torn wastes of the Rocky Mountains. Here is the hectic atmosphere of a young people still intent on tearing the wealth out of virgin country--here are the ghost towns of the old gold-rush days and the construction camps and oilrigs of to-day.







Campbell was one of the old-timers, a great character who laboured all his life to prove what he believed--that there was oil in the Rocky Mountains. His Kingdom was a stretch of country 7000 feet up in the Rockies. In the valley below lay Come Lucky, a ghost town of the old Cariboo days peopled by men soured to the point of hate by greed and disappointment. It was they who drove Campbell to spend the last years of his life alone in the Kingdom, and at his death the old-timer wrote to his grandson, Bruce Wetheral, in England: I pray God you will accept the mantle of my beliefs and wear it to the damnation of my enemies... Wetheral, driven by the compelling urgency of a personal disaster, accepts the challenge and emigrates to Canada. But in the Rockies he finds himself faced with something bigger than the greed and hatred of a few old men: a big mining company is moving up the valley and threatening to spread its tentacles over the Kingdom. This book is Wetheral's account of his struggle to prove that Campbell was right--a struggle against powerful interests and ill health in a hard, unyielding country.







This is Hammond Innes at his best, a born story-teller fully extended, with a subject more exciting and more topical than any he has yet chosen.
