A certified classic by the master of Western fiction Zane Grey. With cattle rustling on the rise in the cattle town of Randall, Wyoming, newcomers Martha Ann Dixon and Andrew Bonning join the ranchers... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Based on a diary written about an actual adventure, this book realistically describes what could have really happened during this period of our nation's history. Martha Ann Dixon, a young runaway, makes her way to her uncle's ranch in Wyoming, and while hitchhiking she encounters some rather interesting characters--a ruined war veteran, an elderly couple who would like to adopt her, and a rescue from some hobos by Andrew Bonning who sees her as someone who is only out for the thrill and excitement--the "kicks" of the journey. Instantly he takes a dislike to her. Both Martha Ann and Andrew have things to learn and experience from the West before the inevitable conclusion of the story can take place. But this book is well worth the time and effort to read. Besides, these Walter J. Black editions will last a life time or repeated readings.
