The Finding of the Gentian is a novel written by Alice Wellington Rollins and first published in 1895. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the journey of a young woman named Rachel, who is searching for a rare flower called the gentian. Rachel is an amateur botanist and is determined to find the gentian, which is said to have healing properties. Rachel sets out on her journey with her brother and a small group of companions, including a Native American guide named Eagle Feather. Along the way, they face many challenges, including harsh weather, difficult terrain, and encounters with dangerous animals. They also encounter various people, including miners, ranchers, and Native Americans, who each have their own stories and perspectives on life.As Rachel and her companions continue on their journey, they begin to uncover secrets about themselves and each other. Rachel learns more about her own strengths and weaknesses, and begins to question the motivations of those around her. Throughout the book, Rollins weaves together themes of adventure, nature, and self-discovery. The Finding of the Gentian is a classic example of 19th-century adventure literature, and provides a unique glimpse into the culture and attitudes of the time. It is a story of perseverance, courage, and the power of the human spirit to overcome obstacles and achieve great things.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
