| Summary | "The Way of the Strong" by Ridgwell Cullum is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the wilderness of the Yukon, where characters confront extreme challenges in both nature and human relationships. The narrative explores themes of ambition, survival, and the complexities of love through the lives of its main characters, Tug, a rugged man determined to make a fortune, Audie, a young woman torn between her desires and harsh realities, and Leo, who embodies strength and determination. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to a grim scene on Sixty-Mile Creek as Tug prepares to embark on a perilous journey through the snowy winter wilderness. The tension is palpable as Audie expresses her deep longing to escape the desolation of the Yukon, grappling with her fears about impending motherhood. Tug's cynical nature contrasts with Leo's charismatic presence, setting the stage for a conflict that involves ambition, sacrifice, and the harsh realities of survival in an unforgiving landscape. As the characters navigate their entwined fates amidst freezing temperatures and personal struggles, the groundwork is laid for an intense exploration of what it means to be "strong."
