The Luck of the Mounted: A Tale of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police
E-text prepared by Al Haines
"The Luck of the Mounted: A Tale of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police" by Sergeant Ralph S. Kendall is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around constable George Redmond, his life in the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, and his transfer to the Davidsburg detachment. Set against the backdrop of the harsh, snowy Canadian wilderness, the narrative appears to evoke themes of camaraderie, duty, and the challenges faced by those in law enforcement. At the start of the book, the reader is introduced to the biting cold of a February night at a Mounted Police Post. The opening paints a vivid picture of life in the barracks, with spirited banter among the officers and the lively yet chaotic atmosphere created by the arrival of George Redmond. This initial segment highlights his youthful charm and the comical camaraderie within the crew, contrasting sharply with the impending complications of his new assignment. As Redmond learns about his new surroundings and the notorious Constable Yorke, who has a reputation for reckless behavior, the groundwork for forthcoming conflicts and character dynamics is established elegantly in this engaging introduction.
