| Summary | "Bob Chester's Grit; Or, From Ranch to Riches" by Frank V. Webster is a novel written in the early 20th century. This coming-of-age story follows a determined young boy named Bob Chester as he navigates the challenges of life in New York City, ultimately aspiring to leave his difficult guardian and seek a new life as a rancher in Oklahoma. The tale highlights themes of perseverance, morality, and the desire for independence. At the start of the novel, Bob is caught in a dilemma after being swindled by con men while delivering groceries for his guardian, Len Dardus. As he seeks to rectify the situation, he is wrongfully arrested and subsequently finds an unexpected champion in a reporter who advocates for his innocence in the court. Bob's experiences of betrayal and subsequent release catalyze his decision to leave Dardus for good and pursue his dream of ranching in the West, setting the stage for an adventurous journey filled with new opportunities and self-discovery.
