Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'White Hands' is a compelling drama that explores themes of social responsibility, personal transformation, and the rigors of the Canadian wilderness. Written by Arthur Stringer, this novel follows the lives of two wealthy and pampered young women whose father, a self-made man of the North,… becomes disillusioned by their idle and superficial lifestyle. In a desperate attempt to instill character and resilience in his daughters, he orchestrates a situation that leaves them stranded in the rugged, unforgiving wilds of the northern frontier.The narrative captures the stark contrast between the opulence of high society and the primal demands of survival. As the sisters struggle against the elements, they are forced to shed their 'white hands'-symbols of their sheltered existence-and confront the harsh realities of nature. Stringer masterfully portrays their psychological and physical evolution as they trade luxury for labor and vanity for grit.A classic tale of adventure and moral awakening, 'White Hands' remains a poignant study of the human spirit's ability to adapt and find strength in adversity. It serves as both a gripping survival story and a sharp critique of the excesses of the Jazz Age, highlighting the enduring value of hard work and self-reliance.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you may see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations. Within the United States, you may freely copy and distribute this work, as no entity (individual or corporate) has a copyright on the body of the work.As a reproduction of a historical artifact, this work may contain missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. Scholars believe, and we concur, that this work is important enough to be preserved, reproduced, and made generally available to the public.
