Before he ascended to the highest office in the land as the United States youngest president, Theodore Roosevelt, with illustrations by Frederic Remington, though a New York City man born and bred, was a devotee of the Old West. In 1888, he published this charming ode to the American frontier, from the rewarding hard work of a rancher on the open plains to the pleasures of hunting the big game of mountains high. Today, the inimitable prose and infectious enthusiasm of Roosevelts writing here serves as much to limn a unique aspect of the character of the nation as it sings an elegy for a disappearing way of life. Includes numerous illustrations by Frederic Remington. Also available from Cosimo Classics: Roosevelts Letters to His Children, A Book-Lovers Holidays in the Open, America and the World War, Through the Brazilian Wilderness and Papers on Natural History, The Strenuous Life: Essays and Addresses, and Historic Towns: New York Politician and soldier, naturalist and historian, American icon THEODORE ROOSEVELT, (18581919) was 26th President of the United States, serving from 1901 to 1909, and the first American to win a Nobel Prize, in 1906, when he was awarded the Peace Prize for mediating the Russo-Japanese War.

"Alan Fry was just twelve years old when he became a cowboy on the Fry Homestead. It was the summer of 1943 and most of the work force was at war. The adults who stayed behind were left with the hard labour, and it was mainly the children who had to gather the harvest. This fast-paced, true story describes the joys and hardship of small-scale ranching in the Cariboo country of central British Columbia during the 1940s. Alan tells the stories of driving cattle, hunting bear, working in the fields and the barns, and reminiscences of the colourful characters that make up his lively world."--Back cover.

Martha Welch felt lost. The wagon train left her and her uncle behind when he became too ill to travel. He'd passed on just hours after they left. She was fighting tears when Wyatt Peterson, a local ranch owner, came across her on his way to Green Falls. He drove her wagon into town, where she planned to get a hotel room for a few days. The hotel was full, though. The sheriff suggested Wyatt take her to his ranch, where he had plenty of room and his housekeeper could help her adjust and make some plans. They began having feelings for each other, even though they each tried to convince themselves it was the wrong time to get involved. Wyatt was sure he didn't have time to keep a lady from New York City safe on a farm in Kansas. Regardless of how determined they were, they soon found out things don't always go as planned. In fact, since they'd met, it seemed very little was even as it seemed, let alone going as planned.
