The Riverman by Stewart Edward White Reviewed
A critical review argues White uses a real river drama of logs as a backdrop for a conventional love triangle. The characters resemble familiar archetypes from stage melodrama, diminishing the authentic wilderness setting and straining narrative perspective. The piece praises the authentic lumbering drama yet condemns its reduction to clichéd romance.
