About this title

Synopsis

A wild frontier, a restless boy, and two worlds colliding: from sun-baked cattle ranges to the thundering decks of a gunship, Russell Doubleday's unabridged adventure classic captures the spirit of an age when the American West was still untamed and the world beyond beckoned with promise and peril. Cattle-Ranch To College: The True Tale Of A Boy's Adventures In The Far West; "A Gunner Aboard The Yankee" is a rare blend of juvenile historical fiction and western adventure fiction, chronicling a young man's journey from ranch and cowboy life to the trials of college and the crucible of naval warfare during the Spanish-American War. This is more than a coming-of-age tale; it is a vivid portrait of the American frontier, brimming with the energy of Horatio Alger and the adventure of G. A. Henty. Readers are swept from the open ranges and rugged ranches of the far West-where character is forged in dust and sunlight-to the tension-filled gun turrets of the navy, where courage and camaraderie are tested in battle. Doubleday's storytelling immerses middle grade classic reading audiences in a world where every challenge is an opportunity, and every turn of fate shapes the hero within. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Perfect for fans of American frontier tales, classic westerns, and naval adventure, this public domain audiobook favourite stands as a cultural treasure-bridging the gap between youthful dreams and the realities of history. For casual readers seeking adventure or collectors curating the best of classic literature, this is a journey worth taking.
