The remarkably prolific author Harold Bindloss was born and died in England, but he spent many of the intervening years working odd jobs in exotic locales around the world as a means of sating his unquenchable wanderlust. His novel Thurston of Orchard Valley introduces readers to the gruff, hardscrabble Geoffrey Thurston, who, like a long line of his forebears, works the land. When an unlikely romance blossoms, Thurston's routine existence is rent asunder.
