Produced by Al Haines "Trail-Tales of Western Canada" by F. A. Robinson is a collection of true narratives written in the early 20th century. The book recounts personal experiences and stories reflecting the lives of individuals in Western Canada, focusing primarily on themes of faith, redemption, and the human condition. With vivid storytelling, it aims to inspire hope and convey the transformative power of the Gospel in the lives of those it touches. The opening of the work introduces readers to a recurring character, Old Ken, a prospector grappling with alcoholism yet displaying an innate kindness that endears him to others. The narrative captures the arrival of a young preacher in a rough mining camp, where Old Ken becomes an unexpected ally in recruiting fellow miners to attend religious services. Through their interactions, the preacher realizes the struggles of the men in the camp, including their bouts with vice and despair. As the stories unfold, we see Old Ken and others challenge their lives of weakness and sin, seeking paths towards redemption, making this segment a poignant exploration of humanity caught between hardship and hope.
