Summary: "The Range Boss" by Charles Alden Seltzer is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the American West, the story revolves around the character Rex Randerson, a range boss who becomes embroiled in the lives of the Harkness family as they manage their ranch, the Flying W.

As Randerson grapples with the presence of city-dwellers in what he considers a wild land, he witnesses a mishap with the buckboard attempting to cross a treacherous river. His decision to intervene leads to an encounter with Ruth, setting the stage for their developing relationship amidst the complexities of ranch life and local rivalries.
