A Forest Idyl is a novel written by Jeanie Oliver Davidson Smith and published in 1913. The story takes place in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest and follows the lives of two young people, Jack and Mary, who live in a small cabin in the woods. Jack is a rugged outdoorsman who spends his days hunting and fishing, while Mary is a gentle and caring woman who tends to their home and garden. Their peaceful existence is disrupted when a group of loggers arrive in the area and begin cutting down trees. Jack and Mary are initially hesitant to confront the loggers, but as the destruction of the forest intensifies, they become more and more determined to protect their home and the natural beauty around them. As tensions rise between the loggers and the couple, Jack and Mary are forced to make difficult decisions and take action to defend their way of life.
