"The Magnetic North" by Elizabeth Robins is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows a group of adventurous men as they navigate the treacherous terrain of the Yukon during the Klondike gold rush. The main characters include a Denver bank clerk, an ex-schoolmaster, an Irish-American lawyer, a seasoned Kentucky Colonel, and a young man known simply as the Boy, who come together in the harsh wilderness to search for fortune and survival. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to the dire circumstances the group faces as they attempt to make their way northward but are ultimately forced to winter at a desolate camp on the Yukon River. As they contend with the elements and each other, the narrative hints at conflicts of character, survival instincts, and the dynamic between the seasoned and inexperienced members of the party. The isolation and the relentless wilderness set the stage for both physical and psychological challenges, foreshadowing the trials they will endure throughout their journey.
