Reviews
On Apr 12 2020, a reader said:
This book is mis-titled; it should be, The Dude Rancher, as Ernest Selby is a greenhorn from Iowa who inherits an Arizona ranch from his uncle, only to find himself pitted against a crooked foreman and his band of outlaws. Many are his trials and tribulations--some quite comic--which he has to overcome after pretending to be a cowboy on his arrival. The foreman, John Hepford, Anne's father and Selby's love interest, is suspected of dishonesty by Selby's partner, Nebraskie Kemp, who has taken a liking to Selby after an initial disliking. All in all this is an entertaining book, fast paced, easily read, no inherent, hidden plot devices, a simple story told well by the master of western fiction.
