| Summary | "The Ranger; Or, The Fugitives of the Border" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds during a tumultuous time on the U.S. frontier, focusing on the experiences of George Leland and his sister, Rosalind, as they navigate the dangers posed by hostile Native Americans. The narrative explores themes of survival, bravery, and the bonds of family against a backdrop of imminent peril. The opening portion of the narrative introduces George and Rosalind Leland, who live in a large home in southern Ohio after being orphaned. As they converse about recent ominous reports of Indian attacks, their fears are confirmed when they realize they are surrounded by danger. Zeb, their loyal servant, shares his humorous yet alarming experiences with the indigenous people, which highlights the tension and underlying threat to their safety. The scene paints a vivid picture of the setting and the relationships among the characters, as the siblings prepare for the potential of a fierce confrontation with the Native Americans, setting the stage for the unfolding adventure.
