***David Langston, the Harvester, lives in the woods and harvests medicinal herbs which he sells for a living.*** Suddenly he encounters ***Ruth Jameson***, the real flesh-and-blood girl that had appeared to him only in his imagination. ***The Harvester woos her with all the impossible idealistic extremes of his heart, against all odds and with a selfless intensity.***
