| Summary | "Frank at Don Carlos' Rancho" by Harry Castlemon is a novel written in the late 19th century. This adventurous story unfolds in California, following the escapades of two young cousins, Frank Nelson and Archie Winters, as they encounter thrilling challenges involving horse thieves and a notorious bear named Old Davy. The narrative expertly weaves elements of youthful bravado and exploration amidst the backdrop of the rugged frontier. The opening portion introduces readers to the main characters, Frank and Archie, who are initially disillusioned by what they perceive to be a dull existence at their uncle’s rancho. However, their fortunes quickly change when they realize that adventure is lurking close by, especially with the recent theft of their prized horses and the menace of a grizzly bear known as Old Davy. Frank and Archie, fueled by a mixture of impatience and curiosity, embark on a series of misadventures that include a tumultuous encounter with Old Davy and a determination to recover their lost horses from the band of thieves. The combination of their youthful aspirations for heroism and the looming danger sets the stage for an engaging tale of courage and camaraderie. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
