(William) 1866 1961 Riley, William Men of Mawm Produced by Andrew Sly, Cindy Beyer, Al Haines and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Men of Mawm" by W. Riley is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the contrasting lives of James Inman, a newcomer to the village of Mawm, and local characters such as Maniwel Drake and Baldwin Briggs. After losing his job due to a heated argument with Briggs, Inman seeks to carve out a new life for himself amidst the intricate dynamics of the village, where past grievances and local loyalties complicate personal ambitions. The opening of the book introduces a bleak, yet atmospheric depiction of the Yorkshire moors, setting the stage for Inman’s arrival in Mawm on a dreary November afternoon. As he navigates the harsh landscape and unfamiliar surroundings, the reader is introduced to the tension between the villagers, primarily highlighted by the conflict between Briggs and Jagger Drake, Maniwel's son. The disdainful attitudes and strong personalities intertwine in the tavern, where Inman's presence evokes reactions ranging from hostility to curiosity. Additionally, the relationship dynamics among the Drakes and their connection to Nancy Clegg, the daughter of the sawmill owner, start to unfold, hinting at future complications in Jagger's life and setting the stage for both personal and social challenges that Inman will have to navigate.
