The story revolves around a boy named Jack and his friend Hugh as they embark on a journey to British Columbia. The narrative explores the beauty of the coastal landscape, the local wildlife, and the interactions with Native American cultures, while also detailing their experiences as they navigate new environments and challenges. At the start of the book, Jack and Hugh arrive in Victoria, British Columbia, with Jack captivated by the unfamiliar coastal scenery and the historical richness of the region. They witness an Indian fishing in a canoe and discuss the unique methods employed by local fishermen. The boys are quickly engrossed in the wonders of their surroundings, from the breathtaking views to the vivid descriptions of fishing, wildlife, and the fishing traditions of the Indigenous peoples. They meet various characters that deepen their understanding of the land, and conversations highlight cultural differences, setting the stage for their upcoming adventures in search of wildlife and exploration of the land's natural beauty.
