Project Gutenberg 2003-12-01 Public domain in the USA. 150 Bowman, Earl Wayland 1875 1952 Bowman, E. W. (Earl Wayland) The Ramblin' Kid Produced by Juliet Sutherland, Dave Morgan and PG Distributed Proofreaders "The Ramblin' Kid" by Earl Wayland Bowman is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to life on a ranch in the American West, where the arrival of two women disrupts the predominantly male environment. The main character, known as the Ramblin' Kid, seems to embody the carefree and adventurous spirit of the frontier, navigating the complexities of ranch life as he interacts with both cowboys and the new female figures. The opening of the book sets a lively and humorous tone as it depicts the anticipation surrounding a telegram announcing the visit of Carolyn June, the niece of Old Heck, and her chaperone, Ophelia Cobb. As Old Heck and the cowboys react to the news of the women's imminent arrival, they express a mix of dread and curiosity, with Old Heck fearing the disruption of their male camaraderie. The Ramblin' Kid, characterized by a sense of detachment and independence, seems unfazed by the excitement around him. This foreshadows the upcoming interactions and potential romantic entanglements that will ensue as the two worlds collide, creating an atmosphere rich with comedic tension and adventure.
