Big Timber

'Big Timber: A Story of the Northwest' is a novel written by Bertrand W. Sinclair. The story follows the life of Estella Benton, who the author describes as «a healthy, vigorous-bodied young woman, scarcely to be described as beautiful, yet undeniably attractive». She is an heiress—at least, she was so, until her father's death and she discovers that the wealth he earned only lasts for his lifetime.
