Adventure stories; Postal service -- United States -- Juvenile fiction
A capital story of what can be accomplished by a boy of ability and
courage. Rob Ranger goes West to assist his uncle in the management of a
mine. But he has great difficulty in finding his uncle, who has
mysteriously disappeared. He sets out to locate him. In this effort Rob
meets with all sorts of exciting adventures, and is more than once in
great danger at the hands of lawless men. He comes near to failure at
times, but finally wins out by means of his cleverness and indomitable
pluck. In the end he rescues his uncle from a band of outlaws and saves
a large treasure, which those outlaws were trying to obtain. Rob's
horse, Silent Sam, and his dog, Trumps, play an important part in the
story, and cannot fail to win admiration and affection. Rob himself is a
hero whose example of courage, honesty and manliness can be followed
with profit. There is not a dull page from beginning to end of the book,
and no better story for bright, healthy boys could well be imagined.
Handsomely illustrated. Bound in cloth, stamped in colors
and gold. Price, per volume, $1.25
