The story primarily revolves around the character of Cameron McClure, a charismatic and ambitious young man who leaves his rural roots to seek fortune in the bustling and rapidly developing western provinces of Canada. McClure is determined to make a name for himself and achieve financial success, and he is willing to pursue his goals at any cost.As the narrative unfolds, McClure's journey takes him through various adventures and encounters with different characters who represent a wide spectrum of personalities and values. His pursuit of wealth and success leads him to make morally questionable decisions, and he becomes increasingly entangled in a web of personal and ethical conflicts.The title of the novel, "To Him That Hath," is a reference to a biblical passage from the Gospel of Matthew (25:29), which speaks to the idea that those who have will be given more, while those who have little will lose even that which they have. This theme is central to the novel's exploration of ambition and the consequences of one's actions."To Him That Hath" is known for its moral and ethical reflections, as well as its depiction of the changing landscape and values of the Canadian West during the early 20th century. Ralph Connor's works often combine adventure, drama, and moral lessons, making them significant contributions to Canadian literature and culture.
