C. 1880 1959 Stead, Robert James Campbell Dennison Grant: A Novel of To-day Produced by Donald Lainson; David Widger "Dennison Grant: A Novel of To-day" by Robert J. C. Stead is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of ranch workers in the Canadian plains, focusing on the character of Transley, a determined contractor, and introduces Y.D. and his daughter Zen, who are central figures in the unfolding narrative about love, rivalry, and the harsh realities of ranching life. The opening portion of the novel sets the stage with Transley's team preparing to cut hay under a contract, showcasing details of their work and camaraderie. As he interacts with characters like Linder, the foreman, and George Drazk, a humorous team member who admires women, we see the dynamics of ranch life. The introduction of Y.D. and Zen at their ranch hints at forthcoming romantic and competitive conflicts, particularly as Landson, another rancher, emerges as a rival, adding tension to the narrative. This blend of everyday ranch work, interpersonal relationships, and impending conflict lays the groundwork for a rich exploration of themes related to ambition, rivalry, and personal transformation in the rugged landscape of ranching.
