"The Honorable Senator Sage-Brush" by Francis Lynde is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Evan Blount, the son of a prominent senator, who finds himself at a crossroads in his life following a romantic rejection by a woman named Patricia. As he grapples with his feelings of disappointment and familial connections in the West, he must navigate a complex political landscape that involves powerful railroad interests and his father's influence. At the start of the novel, Blount is introduced as a disconsolate young man attending a social event at a country club, recently spurned by his love interest. He encounters his old friend Gantry, who provides insights into the political turmoil connected to his father's career, suggesting a call for Blount to return to their native West. A telegram from his father urging him to come home further complicates his indecision, igniting both his ambitions and the historical weight of his family's legacy as he prepares to confront the realities of his father's position and the socio-political challenges in their home state. Through dynamic dialogues between Blount and Gantry, the reader is deftly introduced to the legislative conflicts that will shape the narrative moving forward.
