The story of the extraordinary life of Glen(lyon) Archibald Campbell. Beginning with his ancestors' historical antics in the Highlands of Scotland, flowing on to his father, a nineteenth-century fur trader, and explorer. The heroines of the story include Glen's wife and mother.
Glen was the epitome of an early Western Canadian cowboy. He was a rancher for all of his adult life, an adventurer, politician, and a soldier. Glen's advocacy on behalf of Canada's Indigenous people was never more apparent than in the battalion he led in World War One.
