When the Wilderness Calls – Bertrand W. Sinclair Collection. Bertrand William Sinclair

Bertrand William Sinclair was a Canadian novelist known for a series of westerns set in the United States, and also for a series of novels set in his home province of British Columbia. He had disapproved of previous westerns as he felt the action portrayed was far different that the lives cowboys actually led. When he moved to Vancouver, the settings of his works changed. He tended to write about social causes, and worked in the timber industry prior to writing Big Timber. Later, before writing about the fishing industry, he worked as a commercial fisherman. He was also formerly married to author Bertha M. Brown, better known under her pen name, B. M. Bower.
