| Summary | "The Boy Land Boomer; Or, Dick Arbuckle's Adventures in Oklahoma" by Captain Ralph Bonehill is a young adult adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the exploits of Dick Arbuckle, a sixteen-year-old boy who, along with his father, is swept up in the excitement of the land boom in Oklahoma, where settlers known as "boomers" vie for opportunities to claim rich farmland. In the midst of this turbulent rush toward westward expansion, Dick embarks on a perilous journey to locate his father, who goes missing under mysterious circumstances. At the start of the story, the narrative introduces Dick as he awakens in a boomer's wagon in Arkansas City, only to discover that his father has disappeared into the stormy night. In his search, Dick encounters various characters, including the amusingly cowardly Pumpkin Bill and the resourceful Pawnee Brown, a leader among the boomers. As the plot unfolds, Dick learns of troubling events involving his father, including an encounter with an assailant who has robbed him of important documents. As tension builds with each chapter, the stakes rise, leaving readers captivated by Dick's determination to uncover the truth and ensure his father's safety amidst the challenges facing the boomers.
