5.0 out of 5 stars
Campbell's Kingdom,
By
This review is from: Campbell's Kingdom (Audio Cassette)
This is an early, early Hammond Innes & one of his best! A pale & wasted clerk in sooty old London trudges back to his colorless digs after being told he's going to die soon. It seems he's going to simply give up the ghost without a whimper. Then he receives an airmail letter advising him that an uncle has died & left him his land, high in the Rocky Mountains in the wilds of Western Canada. With nothing to lose, Bruce quits his job & sets out to see for himself what lies beyond the ocean & across a continent. There he tumbles into an old feud, rarified mountain air & an isolated community split asunder by the discovery of black gold. This is a hopeful tale of how a hopeless fellow regains his courage, his tenacity &, incidentally, his health. Years ago it was made into a rivetting movie with a cast of English stars & I relish both!
