Jack Hambleton was a prolific and popular Canadian author of outdoor novels for boys. "How could a boy with $2.85 in his pocket buy a Siberian husky pup that cost$25.00?" A job is the answer, but after some time, young Roy Humphrey's employer is called away unexpectedly, leaving Roy in charge of his spoilt son". Young Jimmie was sullen and resentful, and Roy found his temper sorely tried. But, aided by the advice and kindly unerstanding of his own father, he set about winning Jimmie over and gradually he succeeded. ...It was a crowded and exciting summer, and before it was over the two lads had caught a prizewinning trout, taken part in fighting a forest fire, and helped Joe Aldred to catch a fur poacher".
