Summary "Ruth Fielding at Silver Ranch; Or, Schoolgirls Among the Cowboys" by Alice B. Emerson is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. This installment of the Ruth Fielding series follows the main character, Ruth Fielding, along with her friends as they transition from their schoolgirl lives to a summer adventure on a Montana ranch. The story presents a blend of camaraderie, new experiences, and the challenges of adapting to ranch life, especially in the presence of cattle, cowboys, and the uncertainties of the West. The beginning of the story introduces readers to Silver Ranch and its eccentric owner, Bill Hicks, along with several other colorful characters, including his niece, Jane Ann Hicks. As the characters embark on their journey, Ruth and her companions encounter comedic challenges that arise from the ranch's cowboy culture, including a rogue steer named "Old Trouble-Maker." The narrative sets the stage for a lively exploration of friendship and adventure, highlighting Ruth's determination, the playful rivalry among the girls, and hints of deeper personal issues, such as Ruth's concern for her uncle's financial troubles linked to a mining investment. Overall, the opening portion establishes an engaging mix of fun and tension, coupled with the promise of further exploits at Silver Ranch. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
