"The Trail of the White Mule" by B. M. Bower is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventures of Casey Ryan, a free-spirited, impulsive man who has recently moved from the wild desert to a city environment, struggling to adapt to the restrictions of urban life. The narrative begins with a chaotic traffic encounter that highlights Casey's disregard for rules and hints at his rebellious nature, as well as establishing a tension-filled relationship with his wife, the Little Woman. The opening of the book sets the stage for Casey's character and his impulsive tendencies, showcasing his impatience with city regulations and the accompanying chaos that ensues. After a confrontation with traffic officers, Casey’s wife expresses concern over his reckless behavior, hinting at his challenges in adapting to their new city lifestyle. The story quickly shifts as he decides to leave the city behind, longing for adventure, and embarks on a prospecting trip into the desert—a backdrop filled with challenges that will test his resolve.
