| Summary | "Justin Wingate, Ranchman" by John H. Whitson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Curtis Clayton, a thoughtful physician, and Peter Wingate, a hopeful preacher, who dreams of revitalizing the desolate town of Paradise. Their intertwined lives explore themes of ambition, hope, and the struggles faced by the settlers as they navigate both personal dilemmas and the harsh realities of their environment. The beginning of the novel introduces Curtis Clayton as he arrives in the abandoned town of Paradise, seeking solace and escape from his own troubled past. He attends a church service led by the fervent preacher, Peter Wingate, who harbors a dream of transforming the barren valley into a thriving agricultural paradise. Wingate's connection to a young boy named Justin, whom he has adopted, hints at a developing father-son dynamic, while Clayton’s attraction to the valley speaks to his longing for purpose. As the church service unfolds, the characters’ hopes, dreams, and inner conflicts set the stage for a rich exploration of resilience in the face of adversity.
