Summary: "From Missouri" by Zane Grey is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. This compelling tale of far western life follows the misadventures of a group of cowboys who find themselves entangled in a web of mistaken identity and romantic pursuit when they unwittingly lead a schoolteacher to their ranch in Arizona. The narrative captures themes of friendship, deception, and the charm of the American West, where life on the frontier unfolds with both levity and gravity. The story centers on Tex, a cowboy who, along with his comrades, inadvertently invites Jane Stacey, a schoolteacher from Missouri, to come and teach at their ranch. However, the cowboys had initially promised not to write to her after realizing their unintended deception. As the narrative progresses, Jane arrives, creating a swirl of excitement and panic among the cowboys. Tex takes it upon himself to meet her and explains the situation, ultimately leading her to trust the rancher, Bill Springer. A series of comedic and dramatic events unravel, including jealous rivalries and a daring rescue when Jane is cornered by another cowboy, Beady Jones. In the end, Jane discovers the truth about her mysterious correspondent, leading to a romantic conclusion where she and Springer acknowledge their feelings amid the rugged backdrop of ranch life.
