ABOUT BOOK

The story covers the growth from childhood to womanhood of Barbara, the daughter of Happy's employer, "Cast Steel" Judson of the Diamond Dot ranch, and swings round from Wyoming to Texas, Nevada, California, Montana and back again. It easily establishes the author's reputation as a great story-teller, and as a fun-maker who is to be reckoned with as one of the most distinguished of American humorists.
