The Dude Wrangler
E-text prepared by Roger Frank and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team (https://www.pgdp.net)
"The Dude Wrangler" by Caroline Lockhart is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Wallie Macpherson, a young man seeking independence and adventure after a life of comfort and wealth. Set against the backdrop of the American West, it explores themes of identity, masculinity, and the contrast between city life and the rugged wilderness. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Wallie as he navigates life at The Colonial Hotel, where he has been staying with his aunt. His amusing encounters with other hotel guests, particularly with the spirited Helene Spenceley, set the stage for his eventual transformation. Following a comical confrontation that highlights his status as an outsider and the challenges he faces, Wallie's desire for autonomy leads him to Idaho, where he aspires to establish a homestead. The opening establishes the tone of the story, blending humor with earnestness, and hints at Wallie's impending journey into a world far removed from his previous life.
