| Summary | "Cowmen and Rustlers: A Story of the Wyoming Cattle Ranges" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. This adventurous tale is set against the rugged backdrop of the American West, delving into the conflicts of cowmen and rustlers, highlighting both the thrill of the frontier and the dangers it harbors. The opening chapters introduce us to the Whitney family, particularly focusing on siblings Fred and Jennie, who engage in youthful escapades while also revealing the tensions of life on the cattle ranges, insinuating imminent peril as rustlers pose a threat to their peaceful existence. At the start of this story, we meet the Whitney household, bustling with joy on a winter evening as Fred returns home with a friend named Monteith Sterry. Their excitement culminates in a skating adventure, highlighting their camaraderie and the innocence of youth. However, lurking in the shadows are hints of future danger, as they soon encounter a black bear on their journey. This foreshadowing thickens the air, leading into unsettling developments when they hear wolves howling ominously, suggesting that their carefree joy may soon be disrupted by the harsh realities of the wilderness and potential threats posed by rustlers. The narrative sets up a thrilling adventure marked by youthful exuberance, the bond of friendship, and a looming sense of danger as they navigate their frosty surroundings.
