The Woodsman's Tale - E Gale Buck - Bog

Jonathon Syzmoor, orphaned at the age of eleven in early 1800s Scandinavia, left his home to get an education. Returning home six years later he made an uncommon contract with the richest man in town. After one year Jonathon held the seat of power and married his soul-mate. Tragedy struck again and Jonathon immersed himself in business. Awakened from his soulless world by the generosity of his grandson Jonathon made another agreement, this time with a man in a long red cape. This agreement changed his life and has effected the lives of countless others ever since.
