Excerpt from Big Timber, a Story of the Northwest: With Frontpiece by Douglas Duer Estella Benton's experience along such lines was chiefly a blank and the conditioning circumstances of her present journey were somber enough to breed thought that verged upon the melancholy.

Her head was full of university lore, things she had read, a smattering of the arts and philosophy, liberal portions of academic knowledge, all tagged and sorted like parcels on a shelf to be reached when called for. Buried under these externalities the ego of her lay unaroused, an incalculable quantity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
