"Op het onheilspad" by James Oliver Curwood is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows the character Jack Howland, an ambitious engineer from Chicago, as he embarks on an expedition to construct a railway through the harsh wilderness of Canada. Driven by his desire for success, Howland's journey takes a mysterious and perilous turn when he encounters a beautiful girl who seems to bring both inspiration and danger into his life. The opening of the story introduces Jack Howland standing at a hilltop, contemplating the vast and enigmatic northern landscape. He experiences a rare moment of appreciation for the beauty of adventure as he feels drawn toward the unknown. As he returns to Prince Albert, seeking solace among the familiar sights of civilization, a mysterious howl from wolves signals the wilderness's wild nature. The narrative deepens as he notices a captivating girl through the hotel window, setting off a chain of events that leads to an encounter filled with intrigue and danger. The tension escalates when Howland narrowly escapes an assassination attempt, highlighting the book's themes of ambition, the allure of the unknown, and the complexities of human connection against a backdrop of wilderness.
