520 _a"Love of the Wild" by Archie P. McKishnie is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story primarily revolves around Boy McTavish, a young man deeply connected to nature and the untamed wilderness around him. As his world is threatened by the encroachment of civilization and a new schoolteacher, Boy grapples with his love for the wild and the complexities of his life as he navigates his relationships and his place in a changing environment. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Boy McTavish, who observes the interactions of local wildlife—a black squirrel being chased by red squirrels—while he contemplates the intrusion of civilization symbolized by a nearby schoolhouse. He displays a deep understanding of the forest and its creatures, highlighting his connection to the natural world. When he captures a squirrel, he is faced with the reality of life and death in nature, leading to reflections on the sacrifices inherent in the cycle of life. The narrative shifts to Boy’s home, where family dynamics and his affection for a girl named Gloss begin to unfold against the backdrop of nature. As conflicts with an encroaching authority figure, Mr. Watson, and the looming threat of colonization arise, Boy's internal struggles and his passion for the wild are central to the unfolding drama.
