Description

The frozen wilderness of Canada's northwest provides not only the setting for the first scenes and the last in this adventure tale, but the springboard and impetus in the life of Simon Skafe, financial wizard, tycoon, great industrialist. This is the story of Simon and the making of his material empire, of Simon and his women, of Simon and his children. And it is too a story of the opening up of Canada's wealth.
