Led by a charismatic and mysterious figure named Jimmie Friday, an Indian descendant, the group embarks on a voyage of self-discovery and camaraderie. Set against the backdrop of the remote and unforgiving Canadian wilderness, this book delves into the men's struggles and triumphs as they navigate treacherous rivers, encounter wildlife, and contend with the harsh elements.
