Harold Edward Bindloss (1866 - December 30, 1945) was an English novelist who wrote many adventure novels set in western Canada. Bindloss was born in Liverpool in 1866. According to his New York Times obituary: Mr Bindloss was more than 30 years old before he began writing. Previously he had roamed the world, farming in Canada and working in southern climes as a cargo heaver, a planter, and at other jobs. Broken by malaria he returned to England forty-five years ago and took up office work. But he lost his job when his health broke down and turned to writing in which he found his true vocation. He published some forty novels between the years 1902 and 1943. Many of his books had their locale in Canada.[1] He returned to London. In 1898, he published his first book, a non-fiction account based on his travels in Africa, called In the Niger Country. This was followed by dozens of novels. [mehr]

Vernon Lisle Was Fishing With A Determination That Did Not Spring Altogether From Love Of The Sport. The Water Of The British Columbian River In Which He Stood Knee-Deep Was Icy Cold; His Rubber Boots Were Badly Ripped And Leaky, And He Was Wet With The Drizzle That Drove Down The Lonely Valley. It Was Difficult To Reach The Slack Behind A Boulder Some Distance Outshore, And The Arm He Strained At Every Cast Ached From Hours Of Assiduous Labor; But There Was Another Ache In His Left Side Which Was The Result Of Insufficient Food, And Though The Fish Were Shy He Persevered.
