| Summary | "Johnny Longbow" by Roy J. Snell is a novel written in the late 1920s. The story focuses on the character Johnny Thompson, a young man who ventures into the wilderness of northern Canada armed only with a bow and arrow, seeking adventure and the thrill of the hunt. The novel explores themes of survival, the connection to nature, and the challenges faced in the wild. The opening of "Johnny Longbow" introduces the reader to Johnny Thompson as he finds himself perilously submerged in a rushing torrent, fighting for his life. When he finally manages to escape the icy water, he realizes that he has lost all but one of his arrows, which highlights the precariousness of his situation. As he reflects on his previous experiences and meditations, a girl named Faye and her grandfather appear, revealing an unexpected connection to him and a shared bond over the wilderness. Throughout the beginning chapters, the narrative sets up Johnny’s struggle for survival, his aspirations, and the mysterious circumstances surrounding Faye and her grandfather, presenting a promise of adventure and exploration within the wild landscape.
