"Blowing Weather" by John T. McIntyre is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of a bustling waterfront in early America, it follows the experiences of Anthony Stevens, a young man returning to his hometown after years away, and his initial encounters with various characters within the trade and merchant scenes of the city. The story promises intrigue and tension surrounding the world of commerce, and hints at darker themes as Anthony uncovers secrets tied to his family’s legacy and the merchants with whom he interacts. At the start of the book, Anthony Stevens arrives in his hometown and is struck by the changes that have taken place since his boyhood. His initial exploration of the city leads him to the Black Horse Tavern and then to the bustling wharves filled with merchants and ships. As he seeks out a merchant named Magruder, he interacts with various locals, including a sense of apprehension regarding an urgent business matter. This sense of urgency escalates as he meets Mr. Magruder, who reveals troubling concerns over business and potential dangers. The opening chapters present a vivid picture of the setting, along with the complexities of human interactions, as Anthony finds himself navigating a world filled with both opportunity and danger.
